Yeah Lott is wrong, it's not a "gun free zone". It's virtually impossible to post an outdoor mall with all 3 signs necessary. And most Simon Indoor malls aren't even posted. I heard about the shooting yesterday on my way home from the range to among other things shoot my EDC. I live in the DFW area, so this just convinced me even more to carry everywhere not prohibited by 46.03. I care not a whit about "signs" and will carry anyway. Anyway I'm a VERP (prove I'm not to give me a $200 ticket).

Ok, nothing is clicking at the moment, what is VERP?

TXPC 30.06
...

(f) It is a defense to prosecution under this section that the license holder is volunteer emergency services personnel, as defined by Section 46.01.

Why would a LTC go to a mall known to be posted?

The mall website shows a "no weapons" policy.... This is not a properly posted 30.XX location.

Agreed. The mall prohibits weapons as a policy, but policy has no force of law. It is not illegal to carry unless there is compliant notice provided.

before policeman got there and put the shooter to not alive status?

my answer is yes we have protections in the law to come to aid of others...but with the crazy legal environment right now and being near dallas..
if they were not direct family ..i would have made safe exit and guided folks away. not go seek an engagement with bad guy
i am not the police and my lively hood and freedom out weighs the strangers that may or may not be in danger

i hate to be that way, but today's legal climate with da s and how they interpret the law . i am not risking sitting in jail for saving people or putting a bad guy in the no longer alive category
