Is this still true? I'm a little confused, and not being a lawyer I always wonder if I'm reading the statutes correctly. Particularly as they've been amended.
It is stated on page 36 of the CHL-16 handbook (TEXAS CONCEALED HANDGUN LAWS AND SELECTED STATUTES 2011 - 2012)
PC §46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE HOLDER.
(c) A license holder commits an offense if the license holder intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly carries a handgun under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, regardless of whether the handgun is concealed, at any meeting of a governmental entity.
HOWEVER, on page 38 (near the bottom) it states:
(i) Subsections (b)(4), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (c) do not apply if the actor was not given effective notice under Section 30.06.
Isn't this the same change that permitted licensed carry in churches and amusement parks, etc? It would appear that it's okay now to carry in governmental meetings.
OR — is Keith B saying that it's normally okay to carry in governmental meetings UNLESS they're posted 30.06? Can they do that?
However, I acknowledge (as stated above) that I don't always read everything correctly in the statutes so I'd appreciate clarification. And I apologize if I'm just muddying the waters . . .
