    In Texas there is a law that only LEOs can carry in an establishment that makes 51% or more of its revenue from alcohol sales, and other businesses can post that firearms are not permitted. I’m curious how this ruling squares with those laws.

      Because this law is about places that do not have signs. It’s the question of, “I have a gun and want to go into a store, but there is no sign saying “no guns” and I can’t find the owner. Who do I talk to so I can get agreement to come into the store?” This is not banning “no guns allowed” signs. It’s about having to ask permission of a person who may not even live in the state to enter a place that the public is allowed to enter.

        but the Texas law means you have to locate the owner AND ask for detailed sales records to determine if a business makes more than 50% of its revenue on alcohol.

        I fucking hate people in this country.

        Like “leave the gun in your fucking car you freak” isn’t an option?
