With the new law they will have the option of a 30.07 which prohibits open carry on the premises.
So they can post a 30.07 but not a 30.06 and you can carry concealed but not openly. In this way they can play the fence between responding to customer who think guns are scary, and acknowledging the right to carry - concealed.
Regarding the comparison of Right To Bear and "Make my damn cake" - yup.
does anyone know if we can continue to conceal and carry if we prefer?
And yes, they can ask you to leave if you aren't in compliance with their posted signage, because that 'right to refuse service' door swings both ways.
it’s legal.
My question is now that they have open carrfy.
Some has concealed carry.
Can you then conceal a weapon without a permit there now?
Thanks
Alas the species of proofreader has gone extinct with the recent meteor strike.
Openly carried handguns are less threatening

Openly carrying handguns is less threatening
1. Can you open carry at a lesbian wedding?
2. Can you open carry in a muslim business?
3. Can you open carry while riding a bicycle while wearing only shorts?
Inquiring minds want to know...
The salient difference is that you don't have to spend your money at that place so the choice is yours if you wish to comply by disarming.
In the other case, the place is having its rights taken away by being fined for following their religious beliefs.The second case is a absolute breach of the Constitution because the owner's rights are taken away to enforce "rights" that don't exist in the Constitution by violating rights that do exist in the Constitution.
But you already knew all that - I just needed to rile myself up again....
Makes it all the more important to try to get a conservative in the WH this time around...
Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other who enjoys the fruits of others' work for your own benefit.
PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
The existing Concealed Handgun License (CHL) will include open carry as of January 1, 2016.
The new version will be the License to Carry (LTC) and is supposed to be issued to current CHL folks when they renew their permits starting sometime in 2016. New licensees should be issued the LTC card when they qualify.
A business may post a ‘30.06’ sign by the door to ban concealed carry on the premises or a ‘30.07’ sign to ban open carry or both signs to make their establishment a gun free target zone.
Those two restrictions are in addition to the other current rules as to when and where a firearm may be legally carried.
It will be interesting for a while as the whiny liberals go all panty-twisted hysterical and try to SWAT open carriers!
I wouldn’t open carry anyway but one advantage I see is not worrying about ‘printing’ or your shirt riding up exposing your piece as you bend over or reach for something.
Everyone should do this.
Well, I have no doubt that the knowledge on the part of criminals that law abiding citizens are openly carrying here in TX will serve as an additional crime deterrent, but it will take a while to get used to seeing the guns on display so openly.
Knowing nothing about guns; what would be a good small, lightweight gun to buy to carry in my purse?
