What sign to post on an establishment that sells alcohol (for on- or off-site consumption) is a matter of law, not choice (a PC 30.06 sign would be a matter of choice, and I agree "correcting" an improper posting of such helps no one).

If this business is a 51% business, then by law it must post the proper sign and by law a CHL holder may not enter the premises (regardless of whether proper sign is posted).
If the store is RED 51%, you can find it on the TABC web site and not carry or not patronize, as you see fit. It is the owners responsibility to post this fact properly, not mine. If I carry in there not knowing it's supposed to be posted RED, then I am not in violation (this is my OPINION) because the proper RED posting was not made.

If the store is BLUE (probably the case if there is no on-premise consumption), then any required TABC posting would not prohibit me from carrying, so I don't care.

If the owner really does want to post a compliant 30.06 but was not smart enough to do so, I don't care to help him out.

I see no reason to discuss this with the owner of the store. If this is a place I plan to frequent, I would be satisfied knowing that TABC web site shows it as BLUE.

This is the proper signs for a liquor store. The TABC blue sign bars the caring of an unlicensed firearm. It does not apply to a CHL holder. You will see the same signs at Kroger.
Sorry, but this is incorrect.

The TABC "blue" sign does NOT include the words "licensed or". It only bans unlicensed carry. The TABC needs to be notified about this butchered sign.
