I used a bar as an example only. I would never carry a gun into a bar. I know for a fact that they are off limits. I should have clarified that better.
I was talking more about missing a sign that was posted. I walk past doors all the time and I don't now if there was a sign posted near it. Granted, when carrying you have to look even harder.
This was a hypothetical question. There might be times where one of us will miss the sign, and something could happen that would cause us to have to use our weapon. You never know right?
I was just wonder what the aftermath could possibly be with the law.

Illegally Carrying but have CHL
I am about to go take the course and get my CHL. One thing that has been on my mind is this. And before I continue, I have every intention of following the rules. BUT, crazy things can happen. 30.06 signs can be missed and so on and so on.
So I am in a place, with my concealed weapon and I am not supposed to have my concealed weapon on me in this location. I'll use a bar for example. I am in a bar. As we all know, this is a place we are NOT allowed to take a firearm. So I am in this bar, eating some cheese fries with my wife, and all of a sudden I hear BANG BANG BANG and the place goes nuts. Someone has just walked in and started shooting - Luby's style. Those of us from TX know exactly what that means. So I draw my weapon and fire, killing the BG who was shooting up the place. What kind of legal recourse would I be looking at here? I can legally carry a firearm, but I have it in a location that is illegal for me to carry, and the homicide I just committed was 100% justified?
Thanks!
