Racist Messages Over Gun Signs [View all]

During the last legislative session, freshman Rep. Diego Bernal, a former San Antonio City Council member, fought hard against Texas' new open carry law for handguns. He lost.

However, business owners are allowed to prohibit open carry in their establishments. To do so, they must post what's called a Penal Code Section 30.07 sign. These signs follow strict regulations for wording, size of text and appearance.

Well, to the ire of Second Amendment advocates, Bernal created a bunch and is handing them out for free to businesses that want to prohibit the open carrying of handguns on their premises. Cue the nut jobs who are angry that Bernal is helping people comply with the law.
