According to what I see a hospital does have to have 30.06 posted at each entrance...
Where do you see that?

I prefer to be more optimistic.If they have the "gunbuster" sign up, I don't go in. It's just a small effort to keep money out of their hands that might find its way to politicians or groups on the wrong side of this issue.
Right on the money Ben...at least I feel this way here in TEXAS. Mind you, for the most part even though some stores are run by clueless fools........they are no idiots. I just find it hard to believe that these places of business and the people that run them are "doing it wrong". Now I'm sure it is possible & it does happen, but for the most part I think they realize what it is they are doing. Good post Ben-->.02Has it ever occurred to you that a "gunbuster" sign can be a wink and a nod to those in the know? It appeases the know-nothing hoplophobes and, at least in Texas, also says "Hey, all you guys legally carrying concealed know the law and know about signage. This one doesn't mean anything other than you're welcome in my store despite the fact that I have to also cater to a bunch of people who think different."

You're certainly right about that....My gripe...is for someone to...post three conflicting signs...
The reality is...unintended consequences...results in a mine field that must be negotiated by the permit holder...
+1, not that I like it.....that's just the way it isYou're certainly right about that.

My original post (#601) shows 2 signs on one location, and I had asked for some clarification and I appreciate all the answers on the subject. . . however. . . .several posts have mentioned that there are 3 signs, and I was wondering what is being considered as the 3rd sign?
This is too hard.
This is too hard.
Sign #1 (on the left) - prohibits alcoholic consumption on the premises, conflicting with:
Sign #2 (on the top) - the 51% sign (which is only for establishments with on premises retail like a bar or restaurant, see below), and which prohibits all weapons, licensed or unlicensed, conflicting directly with:
Sign #3 (below #2) - which specfically allows licensed possession and therefore does not apply to a CHL holder.
On-Premise Retail Establishment:
Weapons Warning Sign -
If alcohol sales constitute less than half of gross receipts, the required sign says: "It is unlawful to carry a weapon on the premises unless the person is licensed to carry the weapon under the concealed handgun law."
If alcohol sales constitute more than half of gross receipts, the signs have 51% in large red letters superimposed over the warning which notes that possession of a concealed weapon on the premises is a felony.
Sign#1 and #3 are possibly required, and I suspect Sign #2 may be overkill by a misguided management, but I don't really care enough to check TABC records because just seeing the three together is enough for me to take my money elsewhere.
I'm gettin' dizzy! Hopefully, most here know what the law says ...................... for those that can't get it figured out ..... good luck!
I didn't realize that sign #1 had anything to do with the legality of CHL holders being allowed or barred from the facility.
