We need to have format and placement rules on the ccw prohibited signs

--- Quote ---I'm currently dealing with Omaha telling me that I'm a criminal because I didn't see a sign that must have been at groin level instead of eye level.

I'd like to hear some more details about this...
Dan W:
--- Quote ---018.04 State law does not mandate a specific requirement for a sign other than that it be conspicuously posted, the Nebraska State Patrol strongly suggests that a standardized format be utilized. The standardized form should contain a four (4) inch circle with a slash covering a handgun and text giving notice that carrying a concealed handgun anywhere on the premises is prohibited. A form will be available on the Nebraska State Patrol website which can be downloaded for printing. The Nebraska State Patrol also strongly recommends that a place or premises wishing to prohibit concealed handguns post the sign at normal eye level at each public entrance to the place or premises. Normal eye level is considered to be between 54? and 66? from the floor.

Dan: awesome, thanks ;D
sadly, 'strongly recommends' etc aint useful legally :( . What's the legal definition of "conspicuously posted" ? The only legal definition i was able to see was 'well pronounced / noticeable / plain sight' etc ... not overtly useful :(
what kind of legislative empowerment would be needed to get this kind of thing cleared up ? Obviously it'd need to be at the state level ? Who would need to push for it at the next session ?
many other laws are very clear about marking things clearly prohibited and such, 'no CCW' signs should also be clearly marked :angry9: ....

I have quit dropping my storage payment off in person as the 'free crime zone' sign is posted inside the office beside the door, you don't see it till you leave. That among other issues, is why i'm moving all my stuff to another unit across the road.
I have come across some petty sorry signage in some weird places myself. I don't know how I could help, but count me in.

I think Kansas has some pretty specific requirements. Maybe we could steal from them.
