Walker said in his September letter that the zoo’s signs were in violation of a state code because even though the zoo is privately owned, it sits on property owned by the City of Houston.

Houston Zoo spokeswoman Jackie Wallace said the signs were put back because the zoo is an educational institution that exempts if from being forced to allow firearms within its gates. Wallace said the zoo has an Education Department that employs 17 professional educators.

Residents may file complaints about unlawful gun restrictions by government entities to be forwarded to the state’s attorney general for potential fines. Local governments risk daily fines of up to $10,000, depending on the number of violations, if they fail to remove signage deemed illegal.

Governments don't have money. It's the peoples money. Of course the corrupt officials don't care.

Prison is the solution, not taking money from one corrupt government by another corrupt government.
