"Signs in county parks will not have to be changed because they list firearms only as an item referenced in county code and don’t specify that they are prohibited, Horne said. "
Huh, ??
It may not specify they are prohibited but it certainly implies you'll be fined for having one.
Actually, since the last lines on the sign pictured state "and those other activities prohibited by Clark County Code" and I think it specifies "904" It is alleging that firearms are "prohibited" and the sign SHOULD BE CHANGED!
Any time any government dept/agency engages in such double speak where the OBVIOUS intent is to deceive the public into believing that legal conduct is ILLEGAL or the reverse (entrapment) it should be challenged!

I suppose to me the real question is are the Police and Park rangers aware of the mis-representation of this sign. Last thing I would want is some cop to give me crap and cite me stating how could I have missed the sign. Or worse arrest me wrongly by stating obviously I had disregarded a posted sign and thus was posing a threat to the community.
