Strange sign in spanish: What's this all about?

Post by nitrogen »

Went to a TGI Fridays in Dallas, off of Preston Road.
Saw a strange sign. In addition to the "unlicensed posession a felonly" sign in both english and spanish. It said something like:
"Es Illegal traer la pistola ar armas in su propidad"

Since it's not illegal to bring a pistol into the property, what the heck?

Lol I guess that Fridays only wants armless hispanics to come visit? :confused5

I think it's kind of low saying in spanish, "no guns" but not in english.

Makes for some good water cooler conversation here...

But for all intensive purposes...I'd either ignore it, which you can legally...

Or, there are mas bueno tacos elsewhere...

I'll bet that if you asked a manager to come out, pointed at the sign and spoke rapid-fire Spanish, throwing in "la raza" frequently and indignantly, you could probably get free meals at the very least. :twisted:

Gonna guess - "Es illegal traer la pistola a armas en su propiedad."

It is illegal to bring handguns (sic) on (their) property.

If it said "pistola o armas" it would imply "all armaments" not just pistols.

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me

My guess - "Es ilegal traer pistolas en nuestra propiedad."

We're close...

To which I reply:
