Don't forget that the original open carry law had a provision that prohibited LEOs from questioning an open carrier just on the basis that they were OC. It was removed because the LEO community objected, and passed without it.
When I read the thread title, I thought it was going to be an Andrew Dice Clay thread.
At a cafeteria type restaurant. There are 5 or 6 people ahead of you and a bunch in line behind. The person in line behind you is a uniformed police officer. You are carrying your pistol on a belt holster at 5 o'clock and it's covered by an extra long shirt worn untucked. You notice the officer is looking sternly at you and asks "Are carrying a gun?". What is the proper response to his question?
Yes, that is correct. 30.06/07 premise more or less is a building while TABC premise is the entire propertySo their definition of premises is different from 30.06/30.07?

From TABC Police Officers Guide:
"Premises are the grounds and all buildings, vehicles, and appurtenances pertaining to the grounds, including any adjacent premises if they are directly or indirectly under the control of the same person."
It's straight from TABC CODE.

51% is a TABC thing and is a felony i.e. not to be F'd with.Does it matter what TABC considered a premise as far as carry is concerned?
I don't believe TABC regulates the carry of firearms. Not even sure the 51% sign is a TABC thing.

I am as pro-carry as they get, but some of you really need to do some homework before you get your butt in a bind. For example, the whole "stand your ground" thing is ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO BE THERE. If you are bee-bopping along in maybe a bars outdoor seating area, thereby violating 51% premise, you have lost your legal right to be there. Even if you don't ultimately face charges, the civil lawyers will be licking their chops.

Cycleguy300 doesn't know the law either! Read the law, sir! You must be a TABC agent! I've never met such arrogant, ignorant "law enforcement' agents in my life! The law reads: The premises are a building or portions of a building. This does not include sidewalks, alleys, or PARKING LOTS! Emphasis mine. I was no-billed by a Travis County grand jury! But you must know more than they do. A good day to you, Sir.
Irrelevant to the parking lot.
Deja vu
Well your attitude is kind of common. I'm still (unsuccessfully) trying to find someone who has something nice to say about TABC. It's certainly not me.I remember being at the old Lake Austin inn when I was a 16 year old. We were out riding in a buddy's pickup and we drove through the parking lot. They had a big patio and it was packed. Folks eating & drinking. All of a sudden you could've heard a pin drop! The ABC agents were there and rousting everyone on that patio. They acted like the Gestapo. They were a renegade organization then, and still one under their new name, TABC. Azzholes in 1961, and still a bunch of renegade Azzholes in 2017. If you get the idea I don't care for these bastards, you are right!
Did you just call him a thievin' bear in a funny hat?Younggun,
