WR,

As an attorney with your much Clarence Darrow like-wisdom, I really appreciate your wonderful legal expertise and opinions about....everything.

Thanks and please keep it up.

We're all waiting for your next gem.

"It seems that many local governments post unenforceable signs"

If you take the ride, it's obvious they are enforceable - just not worded correctly.

All of the hand wringing and anguish over the wording being exact in order to be enforceable seems rather silly. When it comes to this sort of nonsense, they, the local government, can act capriciously as they care to.

You say, Mr. CHL, our 30.06 sign doesn't belong here - too bad! You say, it's also not worded correctly - tough! Officer, put the cuffs on him and take him to jail! We can do whatever we want - stinking signage particulars only apply when we say they apply! Got it!!

However, we as CHL holders are required to be precisely accurate in our dealings.

What's wrong with this picture?

Charles L. Cotton,

My apologies about straying off the topic at hand.

I'm not all that knowledgable about writing on the internet.

And if we ignore the intent of these signs, how high is the percentage we'll be hauled off to jail with the officer telling us to tell it to the judge?

Yeah, when it's not a perfect example of what a 30.06 sign should be, how will that help when your weapon is confiscated and you're in deep doo?

I think a lot of LEO's would laugh themselves silly when you argue the size of letters etc. not being correct therefore you can ignore the sign.

Or, am I wrong?
