Ignoring No Gun Sign=Trespassing

[Excalibur]

Awhile ago, I asked some friends that were cops about ignoring no gun signs on businesses. They say if spotted and ASKED to leave, you leave without a fuss but if refused to leave, you are trespassing and you can get arrested if you further refuse to leave when cops show up. Legally, this would include places that are not by law prohibited from carrying with guns like banks, college campuses, etc.

I'm not a lawyer but since it's not strictly prohibited by law the most the cops can do is escort him off the premises or arrest him if he refuses to go. Does that sound right to you Kirk?

Why don't donkeys wear parachutes?

Since when is it illegal to carry in a bank? Or on a college campus? It's not illegal in Indiana, as far as I know. Sounds like some of your cop friends could be looking at a lawsuit in the future if they act on their "knowledge".

I'm sorry but that went over my head

IANAL but a bar owner told me his patrons cannot be charged with trespassing unless they are on "the list". The first incident can put you on "the list," the second can land you on jail. If true, I wonder if it's the same for ignoring "no guns" signs?

That's about as straight an answer you'll get from Kirk.

They actually do.
Check your facts before you post!

Lol.
What's worse is that I read "police probe terrified donkey" and thought WTF?

You think WTF no matter how you read it I think.

You know, somewhere in there, there's a joke about French airborne. But I can't find it.

A fine means he was convicted, if he was convicted it was not "erased" off his record. Even if "expunged" it can still be found.

I want the cause number.

I want even convicted, only a victim of circumstance. Even got all my "stuff" back and the arrest record still showed up one time when I was renewing my handgun license.

You just made the list.

I am curios why kirk keeps saying CAUSE, when everybody else is saying CASE? which is the correct term?

 

[VUPDblue]

Kirk wants the CAUSE number. Cause numbers are standard among jurisdictions in the state and identify all the things he mentioned earlier. CASE numbers are agency specific and are only a reference number to a particular report.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

It's like xerox or photocopy.

It is "cause number", court jargon, but we know what you mean when you say "case number", police jargon (case numbers refer to pooollleeece reports, TCSD 14-XXXX, ISP 14-XXXXX or LPD 14-XXXX).

I am curious why kirk keeps saying POOOLLLEEECE, when everybody else is saying POLICE? which is the correct term????
