Re: A disappointing State Fair episode 10-1-09

Went to the State Fair yesterday (Texas/OU weekend). I took the DART rail, which was a bad idea but that's another story.

There was security and everyone had wands, but nobody was using them. They were just waiving everyone through, though they were asking to look in the women's bags.

As a side note, there was a line to get out of the fair if you took DART and it took over an hour just to leave. I'm sure it's because the rail system was overloaded due to the game, as 98% of the people there were wearing either orange or red.

Lesson: Don't go to the fair during Texas/OU weekend.

Re: A disappointing State Fair episode 10-1-09

If you argue to them that Texas State Law says (and I'm paraphrasing)

1. State Law says you can't be denied the right to carry on any property that's owned or leased by a government entity, provided that property is not a courthouse, a prison, or the secure area of a police station, and
2. since the property on which the State Fair is located is owned by the County of Dallas,
3. the property on which the State Fair is located is not a courthouse, prison, or secure area of a police station,

then their "policy" of not allowing CHLs to carry without providing personal information cannot supercede State Law that expressly allows you to carry on that property with no preconditions.

Re: A disappointing State Fair episode 10-1-09

Does anyone know the legality of this? Wouldn't State law supersede a company policy?
