improper posting

Post by Armed-Texan »

i saw the place to post cities and agencies improperly posting but didn't think this would fit.

a Stop-n-Rob i frequent has the 51% signage, in spanish only. first of all, i don't believe a Stop-n-Rob derives fifty one of its income from the sale of alcohol. secondly, to be legal do they not have to post BOTH english and spanish since, well i don't read spanish how could i possibly be liable?

Remember, the 51% applies the sale of alcohol for on premisis consumption.

The sign is legally meaningless. Disregard, as I suspect you already do...correctly.

Perhaps you might inform the TABC that the store has the wrong sign.

I believe they would

1. appreciate knowing that
2. send the store the correct sign

as in "the unlicensed possession of a firearm on these premises..." or the 30.06, which would cause me to get my coca cola fix elsewhere?

the first.

TABC is not the "controlling agency" over the 30.06 sign. They only specify either the "unlicensed" (blue) or 51% (red) sign.

And, it's only in one language. It's not a good sign..
