Re: Pleasure Pier Galveston
OK, so I finally got a good look at the placement of the sign. This is NOT posted on the entrance, only a PUBLIC walkway as it is city owned and is NOT closed at night. I have no clue what this sign is saying is off limits! Has anyone with legal experience weighed on on this???? I can honestly say that i would have never seen it if I was going in loaded!

Re: Pleasure Pier Galveston
Perhaps they just dont want handguns on the walkway!

Re: Pleasure Pier Galveston
Probably have it that way so that you dont have to walk ALL THE WAY up there to see the 30.06. That is a long walk having to do it twice before you even get in! When i go there i do not ride the rides, it was before i got my LTC. Now that i have my LTC i am. Ot sure how i feel about pleople riding rides while carrying! BUT, i would like to carry because i know that trouble likes being "around" those types of placesScreamin Jimmy wrote:I was there with family this past weekend, 5-21-16, and decided to eat at Bubba Gump's but we did not, nor did we intend to, enter the "amusement park" section. We didn't see any other way to enter BG's besides the ramp, so up we went. The large 30.06 sign is still posted on the left side as you go up the ramp, about 40ish ft. from the street. I was confused because I knew that a year-round amusement park was statutorily off-limits and didn't need a sign. (After reading this thread I now understand that PP may or may not be considered an official amusement park. I'll let the experts debate that.) Anyway, I thought maybe the sign was for the restaurant. However, upon entering Bubba Gump's there was the standard "unlicensed possession" sign right inside the door, which in my mind trumped the 30.06 sign on the ramp.
Which brings me to my question: If the 30.06 is indeed intended to apply to the amusement park portion and not the restaurant, and assuming it is in fact legal (whether it is or isn't, IDK), wouldn't it have made more sense to put it at the top of the ramp, at the actual entrance where you have to pay to ride the rides? I'd hate for someone to see that sign on their way to BG's and disarm unnecessarily because they thought it applied to the restaurant too.
