There is no reason to limit it to the state fair. As mentioned earlier, there are many activities that will ban carry for a one or two-day event.
It would be simple to include language that any entity leasing government property assumes all responsibilities and liabilities as the body of government.

It seems to me that they are reading the parts of Paxton's opinion they want, instead of the opinion in its entirety.

I have greatly simplified things, so somebody please correct me if I'm missing something here;

• If a government entity posts a 30.06 sign on government property where carry is not otherwise prohibited, then that government entity may be fined for violating the law.

• If a private entity leases government property where carry is not otherwise prohibited and posts a 30.06 sign, then that private entity may not be fined for violating the law.

• The 30.06 posting, however, remains unenforceable.

So, Paxton has essentially advised the State Fair that if an LTC holder is refused entry and arrested for trespass (assuming no "other" offense), the court would likely determine them to be not guilty. Wouldn't this leave the State Fair open to civil liability?

While I don't intend to attend the State Fair either way, I have been to other events where the choices are either agree to forfeit your civil rights or take a ride and pay for a court battle. That ride is meaningless to a career criminal, and it is a major life upset to a person with a job and a family.
