You may have a point if in the building.
I don’t know the finer points of Oklahoma law concerning carry rights. I thought the originally
proposed Texas law would not let a sign out front override so called constitutional carry rights.
If in the parking lot, I would be even less sure about calling 911. And generally speaking, 911 calls are for an emergency situation and not potential emergency situations.
I agree 
%!!!
I have the same sentiment (if not worse) about those who allow it.
Individual businesses and privately owned enterprises have the right to prohibit guns on their premises.
Fyi…and the main point it looks like its not a 911 call when you see someone carrying in parking lot.
None of these restrictions apply in parking lots or wherever guns are specifically permitted. As usual, there are also exceptions for law enforcement and other authorized personnel. Depending on the location, penalties range from simply being denied entrance to a $250 fine. (Okla. Stat. tit. 21, § 1277 (2019).)
So, if I saw a guy in a parking lot heading toward a courthouse (listed as a prohibited place in the article) and called 911 and told them a guy with a semi-automatic rifle is heading toward the courthouse door, they would tell me call back after he enters and shoots somebody? Common sense would tell me that they should alert the police who could intercept him and at least inquire as to his intentions. But, I suppose common sense and the law is not always compatible.
Police can’t be everywhere and if they get dispatched for sightings, when no shots have been fired, it’s just not workable.
My experience with calling the HCSO for non emergency things, expect a LONG wait. Whether that’s
someone illegally trespassing or whatever. The HCSO
dispatcher will ask you if it’s an emergency and your
call will be prioritized.
Lots of places have signs saying “no guns”. Nobody at the door checking.
“Sir, don’t bring that gun in here, though I’ve no way to compel you and don’t know if you’re crazy and might shoot if I object too strenuously.”
Property owners must post all three signs (30.05, 30.06, and 30.07) in both English and Spanish if they want to prohibit all firearms entirely.
The road rage shootings happen all the time here in NC, too…
Did we have road rage shootings in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s for those of you that lived it ?
But here is a new 3 count shooting in church parking lot…prayers at 10.
This is why I can never get behind any sort of gun ban… Cops can’t be everywhere… And sometimes when they are there they don’t do anything…
We have the RIGHT to protect ourselves…
But I have gotten onboard with raising the age to 25 for ownership of guns that can hold more than 5 rounds.
Stop it… That’s a silly question… There was nowhere near the congestion on the roads back then… 
At least it was outside and not in the church shoiting unarmed parishioners…
Says it was a domestic dispute…
Did we have more cops in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s ?
More guns does not make you more safer. Someone pulls a gun , you pull a gun,
…do you want to be in a gunfight ?
I can beat people to death with my hands…
In another car while you are in yours ?
Must have freaky long arms.
And I disagree that guns don’t increase a person’s safety…
A pistol is an equalizer for 99.9% of women who get attacked by men.
Is that a real stat or just a what-i-wanna-be stat based on emotion ?
