Yes, somebody who enters the mall through a store, who isnt aware of the posted signs at the main entrance, would technically be ok as long as they stayed concealed. Of course you just admitted in a public forum that you ARE aware that the mall is leagaly posted but you carry there anyway despite the fact.nightmare69 wrote:The 30.06 is valid but its only posted on the 3 main mall entrances, not the stores. You can legally carry into Sears for example but you cannot enter the mall.
This is the grey area, if someone from out of town with a CHL entered through a store and later entered the mall they would see no 30.06 sign thus they would be carrying. IMO the sign does not conform to the law of "the sign must be posted in a conspicuous manner clearly visible to the public. Its not visible when I enter through Sears cause the nearest posted entrance is 150 yards away around the corner.
I carry everytime I go in the Longview mall, just make sure its concealed well and enter through a store.
If you do carry be aware worst case you could get arrested and be charged with criminal trespass by a CHL holder. This is your choice but if you do carry and get caught do not admit that you knew it was posted, play dumb.
