I don't know of any legal precendent that would support this argument. I can't see how posting a 30.06 sign, in accordance with Texas State Law, would make that business assume the responsibility for the defense or safety of another person. This is a jump in "logic" that I don't understand. :???:
:tiphat: That is the point and that is the argument: there is no precedent. A good criminal lawyer would tear the posted establishment a new one - thereby setting a precedent. Wait and see :totap: .

IANAL, but we have been watching past seasons of "Boston Legal" with our NetFlix subscription. (love the series and NetFlix)

Actually, if the deranged golfer clubs a disarmed CHLer in a posted restaurant then the restaurant is liable, IMHO.

If a deranged golfer clubs an unarmed CHLer in a non-posted restaurant is the restaurant liable?

If a deranged golfer clubs an armed CHLer in a non-posted restaurant is the restaurant liable?

No.

No.

The restaurant did not prevent the CHLer from not defending himself because the premises was not posted.

If anyone is killed or injured in any gun free defenseless victim zone then the individuals/organizations/corporations/goverrnment are liable.
Actions have consequences, I don't care what perceived right you act under. Wrong is wrong.

This may sound strange and off the wall, but I think that whoever came up with the idea of the 30.06 sign should be commended. Putting up an enforceable 30.06 sign requires that the poster at least do some research and have some understanding of the concealed carry laws.

Can you imagine how bad it would be if gunbuster signs were legally binding? Any fool could slap up any old decal or handwritten sign that could ban carry by CHLers or any other person. What a mess that would be.

If some chump with a golf club can take you out, you deserve to be dead. Geeze...some of these posts just get plumb silly. One on one, learn to defend yourselves. Everything at your table is a weapon...all of which can kill a chump with a golf club. Quit relying on a handgun to make you a man. If you were a weeny before you got the CHL, you will still be a weeny after you get your CHL.

Do you think Gordon Hale should have gotten the death penalty for shooting his unarmed attacker?

What about battered spouses? Do you think they deserve to die if they're beaten with a golf club?

Lots of well-trained people have been taken down with a lot less than a golf club. All it takes is some mitigating circumstance, and a twelve year old with a sharp pencil could take you down.

Doesn't Oklahoma consider generic gunbuster signs as binding? If so, then :ack:

I have to be in OK City for the first week in March. I've starting looking into Oklahoma concealed carry law. At least we do have reciprocity with them.

Like I said...these threads get plumb silly sometimes. I shouldn't even answer stupid questions like this, but I will go ahead this once. Of coarse I don't think any woman deserves beaten. Lighten up...good night nurse.

Plenty of friends, they just aren't paranoid. So I am good.
