Delayed Proximity Notices Make Them Pretty Worthless

I just turned off Proximity Notices on my smart phone. The notices are nice but are pretty worthless when they arrive more than 4 hours after being near a 30.06 or 30.07 sign. Today was not the first time this has happened; in fact, I don't think I have ever received a proximity notice in time for m...

Current Concealed Handgun Laws Pamphlet?

I have a 71-page pamphlet titled "Texas Concealed Handgun Laws and selected statutes -- 2011-2012". At the bottom of the cover, it says "Issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety Austin, Texas" with a document number CHL-16 and a date of September 2011. IIRC, I downloaded t...

Fix 30.06 & 30.07 Sign Requirements

The required text of 30.06 and 30.07 signs should end with a nice legal statement to the effect that "Posting this sign also means that you or your next of kin can sue us for everything we're worth if you are harmed in any way that might have been prevented if we had not denied your rights as d...

To Report or Not To Report?

Visited a facility this morning that had an obviously invalid sign posted. The English-only wording was something like 'Texas law prohibits hand guns in this building' with a gun-buster image to the side. The size and style of the sign were a pretty obvious imitation of a 30.06 or 30.07 sign. In fac...

Re: Search Results Are Not Clean

That app really sounds great! I don't suppose you have a Windows Phone version, do you?

Question or Suggestion??

I'll put this as a question but mean it as a suggestion if your answer is negative: Does Texas3006.com notify businesses when their posting of a 30.06 or 30.07 sign is published? It seems to me that it would be most ethical to do so. It might also avoid the problems an inaccurate report would pose. ...

Re: New Texas3006.com iPhone Beta App Available - We want more testers!

I'd be glad to help test a Windows Phone app when you get around to creating it.

I would then change my email address for notifications to one that I use almost exclusively on my Windows phone.

Re: 'Twas Nice Knowing You All

Reminds me of the guy who said his biggest fear was that, after his death, his wife would sell his guns for what he told her he paid for them. ;-)

Re: Dallas Zoo’s gun ban found to be legal by Texas AG

"Do I think the Dallas Zoo is an amusement park - NO. Does it meet the current legal definition of one - sadly yes. " I disagree. Unless the Dallas Zoo has changed a lot since I was last there, there are no "amusement rides" there. The only thing approaching an amusement ride at ...

Search Results Are Not Clean

I just did a search with category=Financial and city=Allen. The search returned 7 items . . . in McAllen. I see how that could happen but it shouldn't. The search engine needs a bit of tweaking.

How many 30.07 signs have been reported?

Mostly for the sake of curiosity, is anyone keeping track of the number of 30.07 signs posted? Or the number of new 30.06 signs since the first of the year?

I've seen lots of 30.07 signs but I have yet to see anyone carrying openly. :lol:
