Re: Loaded chamber in posted 30.07 locations legal?

LTC courses, as you know, consists of 4 modules of training one of which is the laws of handgun carry and another is safe operation of the gun. The safety module is only cursory and doesn't thoroughly cover the subject as would a separate course. Then there are other types of courses like the NRA pi...

Re: Sugar Land Public Library

I just need to say this to say it: Yep, I supposed I could have read the law word for word, then consulted counsel for a legal interpretation, which could or could not have been read the same way by a deciding judge/jury if it came to that....God forbid. My post was more of the rhetorical variety. ...

Re: Can civilians carry handcuffs?

As you say, there is no issue of printing as we have stated here numerous times before. The thing that divides OCers from CCers seems to be the desire for true stealth. Wanting to be stealthy while CCing is the only possible reason for worrying about the non-issue of printing. "what's the poin...

Re: Krogers signage question

Target has the same sign. What the sign does signify is that the proprietor has so little regard for the law that they can not even take the time to find out what the proper signage is necessary to properly convey their message to the public. If one is lawfully carrying then that sign means nothing...

Re: Conceal carry at work

So if the company handbook says no firearms allowed and you are caught carrying, it is a Class C misdemeanor. If you are told to leave at that point and you refuse, it becomes a Class A misdemeanor. Is this correct? No. You are confusing two things, criminal statutes and civil statutes. If a compan...

Re: Another signage question

Remember, both signs have, for statutory compliance, the requirement of conspicuousness. The legislature evidently thought that giving 30.07 the additional requirement of postings at each entrance would help solve the conspicuousness problem seemingly inherent with the 30.06 statute by the lack of a...

Re: Can civilians carry handcuffs?

If you are legally carrying, and you arent in a 30.06 and 30.07 location, who cares if people see your handgun? You are doing nothing wrong, illegal, or immoral :iagree: Very healthy attitude, and the reasoning that keeps me firmly in favor of open carry even if I don't actively practice the right....

Re: Sugar Land Public Library

I visited a library in Sugar Land today that was posted as a "no guns" premises, specifically under 46.03, and more specifically it noted 46.035. I've read through that language, but cannot figure out how that can keep one from carrying there, especially as a publicly owned premises. Can ...

Re: What would you do?

If the guy has my new 60" tv in his arms I will consider that a personal threat to my wellbeing and my weekend.

THAT will not stand.

You can have my golf clubs. You can have my car. You can even take my wife.

DO NOT mess with the TV.

Re: Convince me that constitutional carry is a good thing

The largest portion of the class is about the laws of carrying guns, most of which will go away with constitutional carry. What will be left is all of the self-defense laws, gun safety, conflict resolution and proper storage. Then there are a LOT of instructors that need remedial education on gun l...
