Their response was that our building being leased (and this should extend to any lease-back building on PSA) it was under Texas state jurisdiction for all but purely federal legislation. Because of 18/930 we couldn't have firearms in the building but we could have them in the parking lot since 18/930 only applies to buildings. ...

I can, if anyone wants it, dig out a copy of that memo and send it to you. Just PM me.

That's about what I figured, I didn't think the federal no-carry rules would go outside the federally-leased buildings.

And yes, I'd like a copy of that memo, I will PM you shortly.

But I am still curious if there are any non-federal/commercial/private interests that lease buildings from PSA -- and try to forbid LTC carry. That would seem to be against state law.

Thanks for the post.

Much appreciated.

I hope the rains and storms hold off, the graduation parade is pretty neat to see.

This prompts a tangential thought, tho: I think most? all? of the old Kelly AFB buildings that are not now enclosed by the Lackland fence are now on the Port of San Antonio land?

According to Wikipedia, the Port of San Antonio is a political subdivision of the State of Texas. If that is true, then licensed carry should be legal throughout the Port of San Antonio except for the buildings leased or used by the Federal Government (since I am sure that federal power trumps state law in those instances).

Therefore any private entity that leased a building from the Port of San Antonio should not be posting or forbidding licensed carry, no? I wonder about that.

Any San Antonians feel like making a field trip?


ETA: from www.portsanantonio.us :

Port San Antonio is a tax-exempt, self-sustaining enterprise that uses no public tax dollars to run its operations. It was incorporated in 1997 by the City of San Antonio as a separate political jurisdiction of the State of Texas. Its 11-member Board of Directors is appointed by the Mayor and City Council.

Would work for me. Enjoy the graduation, and congratulations to whoever is graduating.
