Pictures have been reported, but I have not been able to locate one. A link to a picture on the web would be almost as good.

Rest stops on interstate highways are generally federal property or easements, not state property. However, the state police or highway patrol have enforcement jurisdiction over them.

The signs have been reported. We used to have them in Arizona, but we got rid of them, and it was the State Department of Public Safety (state patrol) that put them up and took them down.

What a comfort these signs must be to some lowlife looking for his next rape victim in a rest stop toilet . . .

Happened to a woman I knew... well, the attempt anyway.
She had a Ruger revolver that she took to the bathroom with her, and the very large would be rapist only had a rope.
He backed off quickly and took off. He was never apprehended.

I have it. I took the picture last time I was in Alabama, intending to post it on my blog, but I never did. It was taken at the rest stop east of Opelika off I-85. Sorry for the blurry, but it was taken with my iPhone.
Here is the link to the file.

“weapons” is far too vague

I live in Asheville, NC - these signs are everywhere. They are very annoying. Do people seriously think if someone has nefarious intentions, that they will see this sign and turn around and not do as planned?

Pity that someone didn’t get to use the would-be rapist’s rope to swing him from the nearest tree . . .

OK. No weapons the next time I am in an Alabammy rest area. Just a Peacemaker.

Do they have the force of law? That is, if you are found out, can the proprietor do more than ask you to leave?

It’s a GLBT protection law so that they can recruit children without fear.

Good thing I never carry weapons with me. I only carry tools.
