    Default No Firearms sign at DMV?

    Going into the DMV in Hazleton. No Firearms sign on front door. Is this legal?

    Don't most (all) government properties display this sign?

    What would be the point of being a criminal if there were no laws to break.
    There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

    There's a whole thread about this here somewhere. I believe the State's argument is, the property is leased and the property owner is making the rules, not the state itself, so there is no pre-emption violation.

    (I will look for the thread)

    Here's a link to one thread:

    And the big one I was remembering:

    The thread I posted contains a link to another thread, which is the one I was thinking of.

    When did the government worry about what is legal. Everything is legal for them, they make the laws.
