It is kind of odd, though, that amusement parks et al are specified.
What's the sense in that? I mean, anyplace a 30.06 sign is displayed is out of bounds.
Is an amusement park with a 30.06 super-double illegal or something?

Well you DID do a good job, Thumper. 
Those gotcha details getcha, don't they?
Bet a bunch of Texans remember the fine print from this thread, so you ended up doing good!
Without the 30.06 sign, there are just not that many places they can't carry.

synoptic...thanks for jacking me up so gently.
Blackhawk, didn't you just say this:
When taken in consideration of your post count, that might be the most pertinent thing you've said in awhile.

At the risk of looking like a total moron...how about the Rodeo?
I know sporting events are no-no's. But rodeo? Even then, I beleive Houston's new Reliant stadium is posted.

IIRC originally it was indeed illegal to carry in churches, amusment parks, etc. Not too long ago the penal code was ammended to say that you can carry in these places unless the 30.06 sign is posted or you are given verbal notice. That's why those locatations are still mentioned.
Why go to all the trouble of deleting lines when you can just add more and make it more confusing??

Makes sense to me.
I know I was originally taught the "Six Flags" rule someone mentioned earlier.

One of the only good things about Californias prejudicial CCW system is that because most people cannot get CCW, there are really almost no places where CCW is not allowed - outside of court and a few other places.
Also - a CCW is good statewide unless it has a restriction placed on it my the issuing dept which I understand is unusual.
I will be moving back to a CCW friendly area later this year.

(i) Subsections (b)(4), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (c) do not apply if the actor was not given effective notice under Section 30.06
The above was added effective Sept. 1, 1997. In the original 1995 law, there were only 6 amusement parks in Texas that met the criteria.
Re: Question above on rodeos. I think the vast majority of them will fall under the category of "professional" (some paid participants, right?) or school sporting event.

In the PRK it varies from place to place. I have heard of certain municipalities being selective on where and when you can carry. Kern County is pretty liberal. Once you have your permit, you can carry anywhere in the state.
Would you really need a good retention holster in a roller coaster? For loops I wouldn't think so since all the force is pushing down.

Ex-cop packing heat at Magic Kingdom wonders who else carrying

Armed, not dangerous: Steve Reed didn't think he would need his gun at Disneyland. Thankfully, he was right. But the fact that Steve walked around the Happiest Place on Earth for several days with a loaded gun hidden under his Mickey Mouse sweat shirt was scary -- especially to Steve.
"I'm a retired cop, and I'm licensed to carry a concealed weapon," Steve said. "But I didn't expect to walk right into Disneyland and not be challenged. I expected them to pat me down or wand me and tell me to put my gun in a locker. That never happened. It made me wonder who else is walking around Disneyland with God knows what under their sweat shirt." Steve, a retired Sacramento cop, is security chief at a Sacramento mall. He spends a lot of time thinking about guns and bombs and crowds. Like a lot of cops, he never goes anywhere without his gun. On a trip to Disneyland this month, he didn't want to leave his rod in the hotel or car. So he carried it. Disneyland security spokesman John McClintock didn't want to talk about the park's security measures. "If the weapon had been visible, he would have been challenged," John said. Bags and purses are searched at Disneyland. Not people. ...

I first carried my handgun at Disney the first week they were open. I have not missed since. Of course, I don't go anymore, not since the Philistines took out Mr. Toad's wild ride.

Translated: "I feel like I got away with something. That scares me. But it scares me more to think that other people might be getting away with things, too. So maybe they should crack down on everyone. Well, maybe not on ME..."
I know of an FBI agent who was denied armed off-duty access to DW. He was asked politely, chose not to push the matter, and complied with their request.
So...
I'd guess, and that's all it is, that the park wouldn't allow others in armed as well.
Of course, he volunteered the info, never believing they'd actually take issue with a feebie armed in the park post 911.

Guess that news article pretty much settles it. If for some reason I am searched.... walk back to the hotel and leave it there. Easy enough.
I was at Disney Land this past summer while at a LEO conference. Carrying a firearm is against their rules, regardless if you have a CCW or are a LEO. But they do not check. I left my firearm in the room but my partner took his with him in a fanny pack.

That settles it. Metal detectors = no carry. No metal detectors = carry. That simple. Make excuses if you want about it being too crowded anyway or whatever, but if the need arises where you need a firearm and you don't have one, you might regret not carrying for the rest of what might be a short life. As long as it isn't posted, you aren't breaking any laws so you won't have to worry about jail.
However, this brings up a good question, what kind of armed security does DL have? You think they have a SWAT type team hidden away some where on standby or do they rely on Orange County/City to handle it? I wonder what kind of armed response they do have. The only reason I wonder is if you do have to draw and shoot, who might shoot you in return? If they don't have openly armed guards, who do they have carrying that you don't realize is security? A very interesting question to ponder.

Disney World is searching backpacks, purses and fanny packs.
So last time I went (in December) I pulled my jacket down to cover my fanny pack as we went through the line.
Next time I will carry in Thunderware and after the search put it in my fanny pack (don't want a Glock down there all day long).

There are no signs at WDW Orlando to indicate you cannot carry.
I have never seen a written statement of any kind from WDW explaining their firearms policy, though several people have told me they don't allow (or at least want) it.
It is not illegal to carry a weapon in an amusement part in Florida.
Since they have no sign indicating "no weapons allowed", even if they figure out you have a gun, all they can do is tell you to store the gun or leave.
