In Texas, it is legal for private property owners to display a “no guns allowed” sign to prohibit the carrying of firearms on their premises. Texas Penal Code § 30.06 and § 30.07 outline the specific requirements for signs that effectively prohibit concealed carry (30.06 signs) and open carry (30.07 signs) of handguns on private property. These signs must meet specific criteria, such as being written in both English and Spanish, using contrasting colors, and featuring specific language regarding the prohibition of firearms. If the signs meet these requirements, individuals who carry a firearm onto the property can be charged with criminal trespass.

Today’s decision by the United States Supreme Court, which confirms that it is lawful to restrict access to firearms for domestic violence perpetrators, is a significant relief to survivors and advocates. The immense danger posed to victims, their families, first responders, and the perpetrators themselves, when they possess guns, should not be controversial. There is overwhelming evidence of the lethal risk that exists when domestic abusers have access to guns. Let this decision serve as a call to action for our State to strengthen state laws on firearm access for domestic violence offenders. While Kansas law prohibits people who have been convicted of domestic violence or who are subject to DV protection orders from knowingly possessing firearms, Kansas law does not require the surrender of firearms, nor do the laws explicitly authorize the removal of firearms from the scene of a domestic violence incident by law enforcement. KCSDV applauds the Supreme Court’s decision to prioritize the safety of victims and survivors in this case. We now implore the State to do the same.

At its Feb. 27 meeting, the Henrico Board of Supervisors will consider adoption of a revised version of an ordinance that would ban firearms from county-owned and county-operated facilities. The board previously opted to delay consideration of the proposed ordinance at its Dec. 12 meeting in order to allow staff members the chance to review comments received from the public. The revised proposal still would prohibit firearms, ammunition and components in all county buildings and those like the Henrico Sports and Events Center that are owned by the county but operated by another entity, but violation of the law now would result in a Class 2 misdemeanor in most cases, rather than a Class 1 misdemeanor as the initial proposal would have. (A Class 2 misdemeanor is punishable by a maximum of a $1,000 fine and six months in jail, whereas a Class 1 misdemeanor carries maximums of $2,500 in fines and one year in jail.) Violation would be considered a Class 1 misdemeanor, however, if they included the intent to intimidate or harass another person. Full story: https://lnkd.in/eJJXfAqe

Nearly 25% of individuals who commit domestic violence-related murder-suicides are not legally barred from owning guns, and there is a concerning gap in gun control laws related to domestic violence. Despite having a history of violence or being under restraining orders, these perpetrators may still legally possess firearms due to loopholes and inconsistent enforcement of existing laws.
