So what you are saying is that they could post them but they would be useless?

Yes, at least as it applies to non-PC §46.03 or PC §46.035 locations.

Well, let me qualify that statement. It is not useless for government entities, because they can confuse CHL holders into believing that it is a ...

That opinion was given in 2001, and if you read the reasoning above the summary it is written:
The statutory language regarding the notice required under section 30.06 is virtually identical to that employed in section 30.05, the general criminal trespass statute. Because, under the reasoning of ...

Actually, government entities can post PC §30.06 signs or give verbal notice pursuant to that section. There is no law saying that they can't.

Actually there is. That is why the Houston Metro 30-06 policy was thrown out as illegal.

You are confusing the issues. METRO had its own internal rule ...

A verbal warning is sufficient without posting a 30.06 sign under normal circumstances actually. However, government entities are still exempt from being able to do either. They have no right to use 30.06 to deny entry whether the notice is oral or written.

Question: What part of an airport is considered to be "secure" and at what point does it become that way?

Does anyone know what the status is for ass't county prosecutors concerning concealed carry? Are they considered LEO's under the law?
Are they required to apply for a CHL permit in order to carry? I know that they deal with the same scary characters that the police arrest every day. If it were me ...

I was reading in the TSRA newletter yesterday that the TSRA is currently working to get the legislature to define "traveling" to include all car travel. They are still in the early stages of this and from the sound of it, I'm not sure anything will happen this year on it...

So I guess we're going ...

Question: with reguard to carrying a "club" in your car...with or without a CHL, 46.02.b.3 seems to imply to me that if you are "travelling" it is OK. But I could not find anything that defines "travelling". If one is driving their car, they are travelling, aren't they?

Texas courts, over the ...

Federal property falls under one of three different kinds of jurisdiction and I can only think of two of them right now but they are proprietary and concurrent but it does not matter what type they have, all federal laws apply as well as some state laws depending on the type of jurisdiction.
