So when did Cripple Creek go all anti gun?

[Zundfolge]

With the mother in law in town we headed up for a day of wasting money at Cripple Creek ... we go about once a year (when she's in town).

This time almost every casino had some sort of mealy mouthed half ass "no firearms/weapons" sign by several of their entrances.

No, they don't carry legal weight so I ignored them and packed into pretty much every last one today, but these signs weren't there last year so what's the deal?

How do they not carry legal weight? It's private property, if they say no firearms allowed, wouldn't be illegal to enter with one?

Watch out brother, private property+don't we have a law that you can't carry in a bar? Just asking.

Bars: no law. Private property: You are trespassing if you enter with a gun.

[Tweety Bird]

If you're gonna pack, you better know the laws (and the consequences of violation of said laws).

I think you might have some research to do.

Just sayin'.

Complain about the signs until they bring them down. That's what I try to do.

I used to deliver liquor/wine/beer there once a week for one of the largest national distributors for close to a year. Always left the box doors unlocked and picked up plenty of cod cash. Never had an issue. You afraid of wild donkey attacks or something?

I can't find anything about a building just have signs posted yet, so he might be right about them having no weight. Any LEO's here, or dare I say, laywers.....dut dut daaahhhhhh

Just signs = No weight unless they directly & personally ask you to leave while you are carrying. At this point, failure to leave consitutes tresspassing.

[Zundfolge]

Private property: You are trespassing if you enter with a gun.

No, if they discover I'm carrying and ask me to leave and I refuse THEN I'm trespassing. Just posting a sign isn't enough since there isn't a legal standard for the signs.
