Is It Posted

I am awaiting news to see if the El Paso Wal Mart was 30.06 marked.

If it wasn't, this will be the biggest shooting in a place where carry was allowed.

It also underscores that there really aren't that many carry permits and people carrying to count on them protecting you.

I hate the idea of being killed for a lack of shooting back.

I will prolly BE the person killed for a lack of shooting back, but I don't like the idea.

  1. I love to watch old ‘Westerns’ where nearly everybody was armed. If some evil idiots tried this ‘mass shooting’ back then – in seconds they would be the only ones looking like Swiss cheese.

    "While the Simon Mall chain that runs the Cielo Vista Mall is well known for banning permitted concealed handguns in Texas and that covers the Dillard part of the shooting, we are still trying to determine what the rules are for the WalMart that is there. "

  3. I've never seen a 30.06 sign on a Walmart in Texas. They do, however have some fairly confusing signage that most places don't have, which may deter some people from carrying there. Something to the effect of firearms being prohibited unless they are under penal code blah blah blah. It isn't one of the signs that is required either by DPS or TABC as far as I know.
