Did you report it to the city? IF you did than we can take my pictures and show the AG that they are not acting on it.

I went to the 4th of July concert and it was posted. I took Video and Picture of the Signs. In truth the posting besides the fact that it was on city land it was also about 6 feet to the right and left of center and when the main crowd was let in if you where not really looking for it than it would have been missed. I talked to a representative from the gardens and they made the excuse that it is up to the symphony and shrugged their shoulders when I showed them print outs of the law and the tax records. My son had gotten to the entrance before I left the car so I left my carry in the car. In the end I knew the 2 cops there and they both asked why I did that and said that they would have preferred it on my hip and not in the parking lot. I will work on a complaint but would like to talk to Charles about it if he has the time. The city manager has decided that instead of being proactive that they are going to deal with each one AFTER a complaint is made and not until they get a complaint. Once they get a complaint they will act so that it does not go to the AG but not until than. It seems like at some point if they do not put it in the contracts and give a formal notice than we should be able to hold the city and the city manager accountable for ensuring that the law is adhered to in the city of Fort Worth. The LEOs that I talked to say that the city manager is known for playing it very loose with the law and only acting when a gun is held to his head so to say. I did find one woman that had been a long time volunteer and attends the board meetings. She has just received her permit and was not aware of the law. When I showed her the laws and tax records she was surprised and asked if she could have them as she was going to take them to the board of the gardens.
