Probably since [at least in Fort Worth] majority of businesses have the unlicensed carry is unlawful/felony warning sign. But alas IANAL.
My question remains: is the old sign published by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission even still relevant? If it is valid, it would explain why many businesses have failed to post a 30.05 sign. Some of the most ardent anti-gun companies have not elected to use the 30.05 sign and that surprised me. Also, if the sign is valid, it would appear that the administrative organization that TABC is has trumped the Texas Legislature by restricting unlicensed carry in ways not included in the the Constitutional Carry bill.

But what do I know?
If your referring to the TABC Blue sign, then NO... It's no longer a valid sign and you are allowed to carry in those locations.. I.E. locations that sell alcohol and not for onsite consumption.
