When will open carry be legal?
I see them everywhere, 30.06/30.07 signs in at least 20% of establishments. Many just post 30.07 as they support concealed carry in their establishments but not open carry for fear it will weird out some customers not accustomed to seeing a fella/lady with a side arm in open.
How about a .308 sign that says “10% off your bill if you show your CCW card or your side arm on you hip. Welcome!”
Want your store to be popular ? Put up a “Free Guns” sign (grin)
I saw a lot of 30.06 signs on stores, but when open carry passed, I started seeing more of those plus the 30.07 signs.
I stopped doing business with the ones that posted the 30.07 signs.
I bet the karaoke bar is a gun free zone. Guns and bad singing could be a dangerous combination. ;)
I made it a point to talk to every owner or manager and explained I would be taking my business elsewhere for that one reason. I encouraged friends and family to do the same. Within a couple of months there was literally one business (Conv store chain) with the 30.06 sign. It closed down last month.
Some people still have the picture of a gun with slash through it. I read these as "I'm either too lazy or stupid to comply with the law, bring your guns right on in."
“Few Gun Free Signs To Be Found at Texas Shopping Center”
Bad news indeed. How in the hell are hard-working criminals supposed to know where it’s safe to practice their arts?
Hint for future use - don’t go to the local driver’s license locations in Texas. Go to the Supercenters (they may call them Megacenters) - you’ll drive a bit more, but the time will work out the same, and you will end up a lot less frustrated. I drive to the one in Garland, although there is a local office just a few blocks down the street.
Addressing the Asia issue - the home invasion robberies in the area tend to be blacks targeting Asians. It’s rare to find Cauc victims of a home invasion.
I'd expect so. I reckon there are a lot of Texans who'd take them up on that offer of free guns.
