Q: No Guns Allowed Signs - duty to inform

Hi folks,

I will be traveling to your fair state for a wedding this coming weekend. I have a LTCF (License to Carry Firearms) from PA, and am aware that there is reciprocity between our States.

I have read the websites about where I can and can not carry ("BARS" - but the "resturaunt is OK, courtrooms, police stations, schools (primary, seconday, and college), polling place, govt meeting place, nuisance places...etc ...etc.) and is fairly similar to PA (except the bars..in PA = OK)

In Pa... the "NO GUNS ALLOWED" sign does not carry weight of law... if found carrying a weapon, the proprietor can ask you to leave...refuse and it is trespassing and not necessarily a weapons charge...but doesn't look good.

I have 2 questions, not readily answered by viewing the FLA website (s).

1 - Duty to inform officer of CCW (carry concealed weapon). If stopped for a motorvehicle infraction (pick one) what is the "duty to inform" the officer. In PA...there is no DUTY and is not required.

2 - NO GUNS ALLOWED - is there legal weight attached to these signs... in the highly remote chance that my weapon is "discovered" (from what I believe FLA laws to be - CONCEALED MEANS CONCEALED) or required to be used for a lawful purpose.

It is just that darn weather all those "Yankees" bring with them when they come down from the "Great White North"!! :rolf
You DO know the difference between a Yankee and a Damn Yankee, right? :D

I do. You can't be a true Southerner without knowing the difference.

Yanks

In Ireland we are all Yanks regardless what part of this great nation we are from, being born a Yankee and called a Damm easterner by westerner's it never bothered me , but I am sure it would ruffle a few feathers with my southern breathern

sprat
Nah. I spent quite a bit of time in England/Scotland while in the service. Never bothered me....as long as they were buying the pints! :laughing
Question????

Where do westerners fit into this yankee/damn yankee thing???
Bring 2

Steve66 is right, bring 2 extra mags wth you, and stay away from the bad sides of town (all 4 sides):rolf
Seriously, all you have to do is go to http://www.jacksonville.com and read all about the crime in this city.
It has gotten pretty bad.
The bad sides are Northside, Southside, Eastside and Westside.
HAHA. Four sides... You forgot the middle too. I'd bring 2 weapons...1911s...like Nicholas Cage
