the only ones that get me, beside the parade, is the last one. Does it mean the property owner has to have a sign that says no concealed guns? the sign with a gun with a red line through it say nothing about no concealed guns.

my instructor told us that the sign has to be a bronze plaque that they have to get from the state with certain "numbers" or something on it, basically we would know when we see i can't remember what it actually looks like (again i have a pick in the rules/laws booklet he gave us), but if it isn't the "official" sign it doesn't mean **** as far as the concealment goes...i could be wrong just going off of what the instructor told us

Sounds like Texas to me.

30.06 is the statue there and what the signs say.

^^^^^
This.

In Texas, the signs have to be a certain size and have certain wording. Can't just have a sign that has a gun w/ a slash through it.

What site did you get this from?

Anyone know what the requirements are in Louisiana? Can this be found in the LA revised statutes?

In my CCW class the instructor explained that these signs were just business "wishes" and that they are not enforced by the police. Besides the establishments that we are aware of like government buildings, hospitals, places that bring in 60% or more of their revenue from the sale of alcohol, etc. With this being said, the business can refuse to service you or ask you to leave. However, it is a concealed weapon, if you keep it concealed, then no one should see it.

Show me where it says hospitals or government building if they're not posted.

Sorry, I was just going from what I learned in the class that I took today. Hospitals are not on that list that you posted. And by government building I was referring to courthouses etc.

Who taught the class?

And welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm not the kind of guy that is going to put anyone out like that. I may have misunderstood, I know the example was in reference to a VA hospital. I am not sure if there is a difference between a VA hospital and a regular hosptial though.
