This may be a repeat of information. Houston PD headquarters bldg at 1200 Travis is improperly posted in sign and in terms of the law. To enter the building you must pass through airport style devices. They relieved me of my pocket knife for the duration of my business. Locked it in a bag like bank deposit, and gave me a receipt. No problem, just delay. I did not push the issue of concealed carry, taking the easier way by avoiding confrontation.
Similarly, the Sugar Land PD building is posted with the wrong sign. There is a Municipal court in one end of the building, but the court rooms are in the other end from police operations. No metal detectors or x-ray machines.
I find it annoying that these departments and I suspect others, take advantage of law abiding CHL folks good nature to push the envelope on the legal restrictions on concealed carry. Of course the alternative would be to provide safe storage for CHL holders if the numerous police personnel who are in the building carrying weapons are so paranoid about a proven trustworthy and qualified civilian doing the same. Especially since folks who are carrying illegally are unlikely to pay any attention to the signs anyway.
