IMHO, it does not violate the law because it does not prohibit us from carrying our handguns at the show. They are trying to prohibit the manor in which we carry them. There is no distinction in the law about whether it is legal or illegal based on whether it is loaded or not. As others have noted, it would probably also not be possible for them to cause us to lose our CHL/LTC.LucasMcCain wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong here. Doesn't that still constitute a prohibition of licensed carry and thereby run afoul of the law? We established that the Fort Worth show is on public property, right? It doesn't have to be a 30.06 or 30.07 sign to violate the law, if I'm remembering correctly. This should be reported to the AG office next time the show runs. Do you have go through the whole process for subsequent violations like this?Dreamer42 wrote: Did anyone notice that they no longer had the 06 or 07 signs, but had a ridiculous sign stating that if you were caught with a loaded handgun, even if you had a LTC, that you would risk losing you firearm and permit? Who makes up this stuff? They are just bound and determined to scare people into not exercising their rights.
Dreamer42 nailed it. Emphasis added.
I've also noticed both of those phenomenon.
