Re: This one is a doozy of a question

Here is are a couple of questions that I think are related.

1. Why would a store that posted a 30.06 not also put up a 30.05 sign? They obviously don't want licensed guns in their building and I have a problem believing that they would knowingly welcome unlicensed guns. My opinion is that they think that they have it covered a different way.
2. Mose grocery stores sell beer and wine. They are therefore covered by the TABC and all of them continue to display the TABC sign about unlicensed carry being a felony. When Constitutional Carry passed, I expected the TABC signs come done but not a single one(that I'm aware of) has.

Please allow me to contrast Whole Foods with Sprouts Farmer's Market on this matter. Whole Foods modified their combined sign for 30.06 and 30.07 to include 30.05. It is a separate discussion as to whether that homogenized wording is enforceable but they clearly understand Constitutional Carry and the legal need to mention 30.05 to keep guns out. Sprouts, on the other hand, is every bit as anit-gun but has no 30.05 (or didn't several months after the new law went into effect)

The only other large group of buildings that prohibit licensed carry are medical buildings. Clearly they don't sell alcohol and cannot use the TABC to shield them from Constitutional Carry. I have not been near many of those so I have no idea how many of the have added 30.05 and won't even hazard a guess. But I cannot imagine the medical community not taking action.
