Which parts of the code have you chosen to be considered valid?
what i mean is if the letters arent exactly one inch high, or if the colors arent perfectly contrasting. im not willing to be a test case. now if its posted to where i honestly dont see it, then thats a different story. im not rich enough to do battle in court because the letters are 5/8 inch high.

I really don't understand why some people go out of their way to mention or point out indirectly that they have a CHL and are armed. I mean I see it all the time. Calling to hotels before they check in and asking if they are "gun friendly". Calling around to apartments and asking the same. Emailing big corporations and saying they will sue if they don't take down the (non-applicable) sings. Whatever happened to concealed means concealed? Loose lips sink ships, that sort of thing. I see it all the time with people who say "Yeah I totally chewed out this manager at XYZ bussiness over there sign saying how wrong it was. They didn't even know it's not even legally binding." If it's toothless just walk by the dang thing! Why must you go out of your way to not only make a "point" but also expose the fact, even indirectly, that you are carrying.

People we've made great advancements in the right to carry guns in the last 20 some odd years. However I don't think shaking your finger in someone's face is the way to change their minds. Oh and suing them for something like enforcing a policy on their own property sure isn't either. You don't like it? Don't go there. If you must contact them that's all you need to say. Everything after that is just speculation (I may get hurt, you may get sued, criminals may violate it anyhow). Businesses as big as AMC deal in quantifiable numbers ONLY. Therefore the best argument to make is with your wallet.
i agree with you, but all its gonna take is one person to get arrested for carrying past a 30.06 sign that the letters are too small or something else that makes it not binding and then get prosecuted and lose the right to carry and sit in jail for how ever long for others to be prosecuted as well. if i see a sign that would otherwise be valid, i go somewhere else.
