Some thoughts on fixing the proliferation of 30.06 and 30.07 signs next session
Since our victory this last legislative session with open carry and reducing the criminal penalty for violation of 30.06 from a class A misdemeanor to. Class C misdemeanor, we have some more work to do.
As most of you have noticed, there have been a rash of 30.06 and 30.07 signs being posted. The liberal hoplophobes that walk amongst us have succeeded in scaring the public into posting 30.06 and 30.0 signs everywhere.
Despite the fact that LTC holders are statistically the most law-abiding segment of the population.
Despite the fact that 30.06 signs have never stopped the crime from being committed.
Despite the fact, that almost no one opened carries anyway.
The signs that are being posted are often noncompliant signs.
I myself have noticed the signs being posted on the doors themselves. That is a problem because if someone is holding the door open for you as you walk to the building, you would not see the offensive 30.06 or 30. 07 sign.
Lots of these signs are merely vinyl letters posted on a clear glass background. It is hard to distinguish these signs from all of the other signage that businesses post near their entrances.
I have a proposal for tweaking laws in the next legislative session that's would fix most of these problems.
Read on. What do you think?
The next session. We need to make some changes
1. 30.06. No more 30.06 for private businesses. If you can't see it. . . . The only lawful 30.06 would be for places that are statutorily prohibited i.e. courts. Voting places etc. Require bars i.e. 51% places to post 30.06.
1.5. Verbal notice Business owner may ask you to leave for concealed or open carry.
2. 30.07. Letters must be 6" tall. Black letters on white background. Only mounted on non moving surfaces at All entrances
3. 30.07 class c misdemeanor and can't loose ltc. Or simply decriminalize 30.07.
4. Tort immunity for business that do not post 30.07. Strict liability for damages arising from criminal activity for business that do post 30.07
5. Landlords may not put anti LTC language in lease i.e. 30.06 and 30.07 Language.
