I do not doubt you at all, but I am curious how you know the letters were 1/2" tall? Eyeball, measuring tape (had a renewal student once tell me he did that often ), etc...

I'll bet it was AMC.

Here is one I saw at an AMC. Notice the letters are about the width of my finger and it is on an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper.

that is exactly the problem, why do we have to PERSUADE anybody that we HAVE RIGHTS?????

I agree with you 100% - we shouldn't have to fight to keep what has already been given to us - and defended with blood and precious lives. Unfortunately, there are too many simple-minded people in Washington and State Governments who are afraid of guns, and their message - as wrong and hateful as it is - is getting out and persuading people that guns, and honest people with guns, are evil. Why add fuel to their fire?

It still puzzles me (sort of) that NOT ONE of these trolls in DC or New York or California has the guts to stand up and say that gangs and ILLEGAL gun possession is the problem and that keeping guns in the hands of RESPONSIBLE gun owners IS a solution.

thats true, and after reading it again it may have come off as jumping on you and that wasn't my intent. the intent was trying to state an obvious problem. They will never admit the REAL problems in society that need to be tackled because that isn't their intent. guns themselves are only a small portion to do with the big picture. they want to control society as a whole with 100% gubberment.

It could get quite expensive arguing legalities vs. intent. AFAIK, all ETMC medical facilities are posted with large signs in both languages; however, the letters appear less than 1" tall. While not technically legal, there is no mistaking ETMC's intent.

As you have posted many times... Concealed means Concealed. Your concern won't be an issue unless I need it. As for intentions, they would take the time to research and post the correct signage if they were talking to CHL holders.

You may have mistook comment for concern? You are correct, concealed is concealed. Heck, I unthinkingly wore mine into the Post Office the other day when I returned an air rifle to the seller. Lights didn't flash nor did sirens go off and nobody knew....including me.
