There is even a CHL instructor that advertises and sells 30.07 signs on his web site. Seems like somewhat of a conflict of interest to me.

Everywhere? Lol. Yeah, like they can just drop by H-E-B or Walmart and pick up a compliant sign.

It may not be difficult to mail order and put up a compliant sign, but that takes education & planning ahead. I'm in the shooting industry and local business owners were bugging us all week for OC details and wanted to know if they could stop by my store and purchase a 30.07 sign.

Many business owners were not even aware OC was about to go into effect until all the year end publicity started. Most had absolutely no clue how to legally prohibit it and were searching for legal signs.

BTW, one of my former CHL students works for H-E-B and he mentioned they were making preparations to add 30.07 signs...not sure how legit or if they changed their minds b/c I checked last night and no signs (at least locally)...yet.

Out of curiosity, exactly which laws need enforcing here?

There are almost 1.8 million small businesses alone here in the State of Texas. When you stop and consider there has been virtually no direction from the legislature or DPS on how to properly handle OC, the overwhelming majority of these businesses have no clue what to due or where to get the proper signs.

Maybe they don't want to clutter up their entrance with the required signing in English and Spanish. While the sign is not compliant for 30.07, I would not walk past it because I know I would be asked to cover up or leave... I don't have a problem at all with that.

Any honest Joe who misses the non-compliant sign (or claims to) is protected in a court of law so long as they departed or concealed when asked (and didn't argue).
