It is to unlicensed people what 30:06 is to those with an LTC. It is a response to Texas passing Constitutional Carry.

I would be willing to bet that 90% or more of the folks carrying under constitutional carry have no idea what that sign means. Or even to look for it.

I'm not sure that I agree. I understand your point - without some sort of formal setting with required attendance, the chances of the dispersal of the information about the 30.05 sign are random. OTOH, the announcement of Constitutional Carry itself was pretty random. Only those with a specific interest in following it know about it. The news media didn't exactly blare the new law from the rooftops. Those that were following the passage likely know about the sign.

Texas has had a law which requires drivers of motor homes heavier than 26,000lbs to have a special driver's license Not all of them do. Some estimates are that 50% of the people that own those vehicles don't know about the special license requirement. I don't know of anyone who was ever cited for non-compliance. In the one time that I've been stopped by the police while driving our RV (which is lighter than the requirement and doesn't need the special incense) the officer during his rant about my driving a "30,000 pound vehicle" recklessly, didn't check my license to see if I had the Class B non-CDL that is required for the weight that he accused me have having. When the law is not understood by either the affected group nor the people who are supposed to enforce it, the chances of compliance are also random. The 30.05 sign will l only become a problem when someone tries something open carrying in a posted place, is detected and the police are called. Otherwise, concealed is concealed.

As long as they do not post a 30.06 I am okay with being able to conceal carry.

I looked very carefully around the lobby to see if a 30.06 sign was hiding somewhere. I could not find one. They went to great lengths to post the 30.07 signs because they appear a lot larger than required. With that kind of effort and no visible 30.06, I'm assuming that is their intention.

It sure made me feel a whole lot safer knowing a cop would be standing in the lobby in case some nut decided to start shooting up the theater some 500 yards away. it is amazing how little effort it takes to make the Sheeple feel all warm and fuzzy.

We went to Tinseltown in Grapevine on Christmas Day. The Grapevine LEO was actually walking the hallways among the theaters. Considering there was only one of him and a lot of theaters to cover, I'm not sure how much help he could have been if things went South.

I look at it like putting an alarm system sign in your front yard.

Nope. While it may be the same company, it is in the fast-becoming People's Republic of CO, to match the People's Republic of Cali. I don't attribute what happens in other States to what happens in Texas.

If and when the Cinemark it Texas posts a 30.06. they've seen the last of my business. I hope that families in Aurora take them to the cleaners for posting that theater. I'm not burdened by Liberal bias and it is pretty clear to me that the shooter (I refuse to name him) picked that theater because it was posted.

Often companies are actually groups of franchisees with some level of independent decision making on a local level. My expectation is that if gun bans where a corporate level policy, Tinseltown would have been posted years ago. I certainly could be wrong.

Tinseltown in Grapevine is a Cinemark affiliate and I've never seen any sort of a sign there. Of course, all that matters it me is a 30.06 sign so I'm not looking too hard. OTOH, AMC has their pitifully small (8.5x11) version of a 30.06. While if I wanted to, I'd carry past it since it shouldn't be enforceable, I prefer to drive past there to go to Tinseltown.

I always have a wider than normal grin when I stand under a gunbuster or no guns allowed sign. I'm just a law abiding citizen following the Texas Penal Code instructions.
