There are also a few rational comments, if you sort by most recent. Don't let the fringes represent any group as a whole. That includes those on "our" side.

I don't want to go up against a jury in Travis county and have my only protection be that the 30.06 sign was 1/4" too small in lettering. Someone else can spend the time and money to see if that prosecution will work or not. I suspect that it very much would work with the right jury.

Looking at it another way:
1) I have rights.
2) Private businesses have rights.

Sometimes the two collide. If it's my house, it's my way. If it's my business, it's my way. What right is it of mine to expect that I should get my way in a business owned by someone else? Surely we don't expect that. In other words, I respect the rights of business owners at their business. I expect the same respect.
And if it's Exxon it's MY way since I'm shareholder (owner). Then again I live in constant fear of "THE RIDE". :shock:

We don't want to ignore the wishes of property owners like OCT extremists, do we?
Yes actually I DO want to ignore the wishes of property owners. When I enter a business (open to the public) I do not want to honor their wishes for no gays or Democrats to enter. They "theoretically" have the right to bar me (gay Democrat) under Texas law (by posting a sign). And I understand this. However, I do not believe that they should have the right to invoke the criminal power of the State to have me arrested. If asked to leave due to my "gender identification" or "political affiliation" or "carry status" I will leave. If a business properly posts IAW 30.06 I will not enter while carrying a handgun under authority of my CHL. If a business posts ("legally" under PC 30.05) against my gender, political, or gun preferences...I will proceed according to my understanding of US law.
