You are right. The Dallas Zoo is posting though.Hickeroar wrote:Thanks for the insight on state parks. I did a little more looking around and found something on packing.org that seemed to say that concealed carry in a state park was legal, but I wasn't sure if i understood it right. Thanks!
I thought the amusement park law was effectlively repealed. Or am i misunderstanding you...
From what i understood if an amusement park was not displaying a 30.06 then you were allowed to enter...regardless of "who owns it."

For Zoos it depends who owns it. The Dallas Zoo is owned by the City of Dallas. A city owned facility cannot prohibit carry under 30.06, but they can if it is a place listed under 46.03 or 46.035.
Amusement parks are listed under 46.035
(1) "Amusement park" means a permanent indoor or outdoor
facility or park where amusement rides are available for use by the
public that is located in a county with a population of more than one
million, encompasses at least 75 acres in surface area, is enclosed
with access only through controlled entries, is open for operation
more than 120 days in each calendar year, and has security guards on
the premises at all times. The term does not include any public or
private driveway, street, sidewalk or walkway, parking lot, parking
garage, or other parking area.
The Dallas Zoo is 95 Acres, open year around and if it has more than 1 ride I guess it would qualify.
I just called the main number for them and the lady told me they are 30.06 posted, but she did not know under what listing.....
