Selling beer and wine does not disqualify LTC, unless they also post 30-60 & 30-07, unless the establishment is a 51%, making 51% or more of their sales in alcohol.

Shooters mom called police worried about her son buying an AK47 considering his age and maturity level.
Didn’t mention that pesky kill list he made in high school.
Police apparently said it was all legal.

Twomillenium makes a point but you are partially right, even if quoting the wrong law. The quoted 51% sign you mention is for on-premise consumption, such as a bar. The law that forbids carrying an unlicensed weapon anyplace that sells alcohol, such as a grocery store, convenience store, WalMart, liquor store, etc. is also a felony. However as LTC we are exempt to that law. We are NOT exempt to the 51% on-premise sign!

Re: El Paso Walmart Shooting
I wasn’t aware of a list by the El Paso shooter just the Ohio shooter. I have not heard anyone mention the killer in El Paso had any contact with police other than a runaway, being on a bus that crashed, and having a false alarm at his grandparents home.Oldgringo wrote: ↑Thu Aug 08, 2019 11:00 amCNN?

Re: El Paso Walmart Shooting
Our local station said she didn’t identify herself or release her son’s name. Not that the police couldn’t have figured it out. Just that there apparently wasn’t any case for alarm at the time.Oldgringo wrote: ↑Thu Aug 08, 2019 11:00 amphilip964 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 07, 2019 10:29 pm https://www.click2houston.com/news/nati ... -about-gun
