There you go Guns, Walters IN Texas so his info is straight from the horses, uh, mouth, yeah, that's it mouth   ;D
I would check it out though. The issue isn't about carrying it (if you do your job right they'll never know its there), the issue is about using it. In Fl., and I believe Tx., tresspassing with a firearm is a felony. Even if you aren't charged for the shooting, you still go directly to jail. Not a risk I'd run to see a movie about blue aliens that will be out on video next week anyway.

From what I have heard, the Texas 30 06 law specifies the dimensions colors wording etc for the signs that ARE legally binding, if the sign does not match EXACTLY those requirements then it is worthless..

That is correct.  The other qualifier is that the sign must be in a conspicuous place.  The mall next to the theater has a sign, but it's really difficult to find.  The theater on the other hand has it clearly posted on the front doors.

In Texas, if They find out they can ask you to leave. You don't leave, they can call police, who will ask you to leave. If you don't leave then, you're arrested for criminal trespass with a concealed handgun, or something to that effect. At least that's what they tell me in the CHL class. As far as I know, AMC theaters don't have metal detectors. In fact last time I went to the one in Mesquite, that's 20 minutes from my house, I carried, and I didn't see any sign. Well there may have been a "Gunbuster" sign. It's been a couple years.

This is what they taught in our class as well.  The "gun buster"  sign alone though does not meet the 30.06 requirements.  Therefore, it ain't compliant and does not count.

Probably worth looking into. Now ya got me curious.

yea what does the TX law say? Minnesota's rule seams "reasonable" to some extent.

No, ND's law is "reasonable - they can't even ask if you're carrying and if they do and you say yes, they can't do anything about it. Unless you're at a church function, a bar or a sporting event. Then you are not supposed to be carrying. But theaters, restaurants, the mall, wherever, they can't forbid it.

Now that's reasonable. We're working on the limitations, especially the church ban.

Churches used to be on the statutory prohibited list, but they have changed that.  Churches still do have the option to post the 30.06 sinage though.

and if you wer to have a ND injurying some one, do you have insurance to cover that?

like it or not, no gun signs have nothing to do with guns.  they are about money, and only money.

The only places I "forbidden" to carry in NH  are Court house, Post Office, and the State house is under debate right now.
Schools I don't know what the deal is as I have no reason to go to them, but if I can't it's only on school property.
