If so, then a CHL walking into a bar that's not properly posted is also nothing.C-dub wrote:A CHL walking past a gunbuster sign is nothing.
A defense to prosecution is a defense to prosecution is a defense to prosecution.

Re: Is this sign legal?
If a company posts a gunbuster sign or some other sign prohibiting guns, carrying past the sign is criminal trespass. Having a CHL for the category handgun you're carrying is a defense to prosecution.C-dub wrote:An establishment that can legally post a red 51% sign does not require a sign to be off limits. That's a fact. It is not like WalMart, that must post a 30.06 sign to be off limits. Not having a 51% sign properly displayed is a defense to prosecution. This means that if you were carrying and were arrested for it you will have to prove that the sign was not posted or not posted properly as a defense to prosecution.tbrown wrote:Proven guilty by who? And of what? What's the crime if the sign is not compliant or not posted where required?

Proven guilty by who? And of what? What's the crime if the sign is not compliant or not posted where required?C-dub wrote:Yup. Someone that has done this has broken the law. They are no longer innocent until proven guilty, they've already been proven guilty. It is now up to them to prove the "defense to prosecution" part that the sign was either improperly posted or not posted at all.
