I took my niece to her doctor yesterday and in her pediatrician's office (next to a tanning salon and nail salon in a strip shopping center) there was a sign on the glass at the front receptionists' desk in English and Spanish on 8.5"x11" paper saying "State Law prohibits carrying a handgun on these premises" I guess its purpose informs unlicensed persons to leave them in their car where the MPA covers them, because they are correct that State law prohibits persons without a license from carrying there ...I took a seat and waited for my niece....There was no 30.06 sign.
(I'm not a lawyer, so I won't be giving them legal advice about wording, signs etc so I won't get investigated by the State for the criminal offense of UPL, Unauthorized/Unlicensed Practice of Law)
