I Felt Like I Did When I First Got My Plastic

The other day, I was in a city building that was improperly posted 30.06. I have to admit, I was quite nervous. I *know* I was legal, but am also sure that had I been seen, I would have had the 'take the ride / beat the rap' scenario. I have to admit, I was tempted to put it back in the car when I saw the sign, but the principle of it just ticks me off so much that I did a quick bit of research on my iPhone, then carried away. 
I'm so sick of municipal and/or county buildings improperly posting. It's clearly intimidation. It makes me feel powerless that we cannot change it without costing more money than I can afford.
I will say, once inside, I felt like a 'newbie' carrying again. I was wearing a sport coat, and had my Glock 19 in a Comptac M-tac IWB holster at 3 o'clock. I was convinced that everyone could 'spot the bulge', and see me 'printing'. I road in the elevator with 3 LEO's on the way out, and those doors could not open fast enough!! I really felt like a new carrier again. It was quite funny to have that feeling again because typically, I'm 100% not worried about it now. The general public sees nothing. I am almost to the point where I'm convinced I could literally walk around with it in my hand at the grocery store, and go unnoticed. hah.
I am no position to be a 'test case'. I have purchased 'pre-paid legal protection', but regardless, there's no way out of it without costing you at least a fortune in time and possibly embarrassment. Darn the city and county for this intimidation. It's so frustrating!
