These type of blanket "no gun" signs apply to LEOs too. If we're off duty and someone has one of them posted then we're supposed to obey their wishes. There are other places we can't carry unless we are on-duty and in uniform. A plain clothes officer on-duty cannot carry into certain areas and even uniformed officers can't carry into certain areas. Most of them are federally regulated but we still have to be aware of them.



This amazed me when I moved to Texas. As a police officer in Illinois, there was nowhere that I couldn't carry, on or off duty. Starting about 1998 (when we got a new courthouse) we did have to lock up our gun when going to court. The downside was that after I retired, carrying would have been a crime
