Re: HB 1166 - Fines for Signs Modifications

How about we get rid of "fines for signs" entirely and just make it clear that anyone who wrongly restricts a license holder from carrying on government owned property will receive no immunity for their actions. Retraining said license holder would make the offender guilty of assault, and/or false imprisonment, etc.

By analogy, it is not illegal to wear sandals in my home, just like it is not illegal to carry a gun in a government owned building (that does not meet the applicable exceptions). Anyone (including on or off duty LE) who detains me for carrying a gun in a govt owned building should face the same consequences I would face if I grabbed the sandal wearing guest in my home, dragged them down the hall and locked them in my bathroom. If someone is "enforcing" a restriction that isn't actual legal, then they are not acting under the authority of their office. They are just being a thug, IMHO.
