Re: DPS Carry?

When Concealed Carry was first allowed, before 30.06 signs, carry in a DPS office was not allowed. It was not a felony or misdemeanor offense, it was an "administrative" offense. I don't recall if there was even a penalty attached, maybe only a suspension. After 30.06 came into being, and Tx AG Cornyn rendered his opinion that government officed could post 30.06 signs and enforce them, several offices did. Finally, the legislature took care of that with the law that no government entity could post 30.06 and make it stick except for posted meetings of government bodies. Most signs have yet to come down, though!
