I'm noticing that the OP is cool hand luke's first and only post so far, posted yesterday at 8:something in the morning, and he has not yet returned to respond to any of the responses to his thread..... .....all of which have been extremely civil and rational.... .....and he thought he would get flamed or kicked off for posing the question.

It looks to me like he might have kicked himself off.

C'mon dude. Come back and let us know what you think of the responses you've gotten so far. I'm curious to see if your mind has been changed. You would be far from the only libertarian on the board, and I'm curious because other self-identified libertarians don't always seem to agree with you. What do you say?

If someone is carrying illegally, or smoking pot illegally, no signs are required to arrest and prosecute.

In fact, to someone carrying illegally, 30.06 means nothing since it specifically addresses only people who have CHLs. If a gangbanger carries a pistol past a 30.06 sign, he may certainly be guilting of violating any number of other laws, but he hasn't actually violated 30.06 because it doesn't apply to him. Reading the text...

PURSUANT TO SECTION 30.06, PENAL CODE (TRESPASS BY HOLDER OF A LICENSE TO CARRY A CONCEALED HANDGUN) A PERSON LICENSED UNDER SUBCHAPTER H, CHAPTER 411, GOVERNMENT CODE (CONCEALED HANDGUN LAW), MAY NOT ENTER THIS PROPERTY WITH A CONCEALED HANDGUN.

Or.... read another way, it says:

PURSUANT TO SECTION 30.06, PENAL CODE (TRESPASS BY HOLDER OF A LICENSE TO CARRY A CONCEALED HANDGUN) A PERSON NOT LICENSED UNDER SUBCHAPTER H, CHAPTER 411, GOVERNMENT CODE (CONCEALED HANDGUN LAW), MAY ENTER THIS PROPERTY WITH A CONCEALED HANDGUN ALL DAY LONG UNTIL THE COWS COME HOME.

Look at that..... 10 responses so far, and not one flamethrower.
