Fed Law Vs Constitutional Carry

[planeflyer21]

An article bringing up the issue of "gun free school zones" vs. the now 10 states that have Constitutional Carry.  There are maps of a few places.  Phoenix is interesting:

If you carry, be aware of your surroundings.  In more than one way.

I have no permit. I have no intention to get one. I carry everywhere.

I had no permit when I was stationed at Luke AFB in 2007. I open carried everywhere in Phoenix.

I suppose it is easy to carry (easier if concealed no doubt) in many places where it is technically illegal to possess a firearm. The biggest problem could happen when there is an 'incident' that brings the fact that someone was carrying "illegally" in such places where doing so is illegal by local, state or federal law. I wouldn't take the risk unless the risk of not doing so outweighs the other.

Has anything been legally decided ablut those who are living within the 1,000 ft radius of a school?  And I mean for example, out here in ND, that law effectively could turn over half of some small towns` locales into gun free zones.  I had that question years ago when it was instituted,  but never found out what the answer really was.

Actually had a discussion with a guy who lived right across from the school, and he said f` them, he wasn't giving up his hunting rifles (and that was all he had, a couple bolt actions and shotguns).

Yes.

When the GFSZ act was passed into law originally, it was challenged immediately on those very grounds.  There are now a list of exceptions to the GFSZ law, as the original wording was declared unconstitutional.

Off the top of my head, if you live/work within the 1,000' radius, you are licensed by the state to carry a firearm (some argue this means a CCW permit), are a security guard under contract by the school, a police officer executing your duty, are a hunter needing to cross school property during hunting season to access hunting lands (no shiit, this was put in due to the persistence of West Virginia representatives).  Some others too.

Ironically, the fed law says you may present your firearm to stop an unlawful act at a school but may not fire it, which is in direct conflict with AZ law which says you may not have a firearm on (public) school property but may discharge it to stop a felony crime in process.

They will get you one way or the other.

As far as I know the 1000 ' distance is a local or state option. And so is the alcohol sales distance. Both seem stupid to me, as you probably can buy more dangerous stuff inside the school building.

Apparently the one thing schools have succeeded at is implanting commie propaganda and removing courage from our young people.

A teacher in Newtown ,Jason Adams  is in deep $hit facing 5 years after being Arrested for caring his CCW pistol at the Newtown Middle School where he is a teacher.

Too bad he didn't break that rule a few years earlier

The schools are domesticating our children

1. to convert (animals, plants, etc.) to domestic uses; tame. 2. to tame (an animal), especially by generations of breeding, to live in close association with human beings as a pet or work animal and usually creating a dependency so that the animal loses its ability to live in the wild. 3.

At least they are not teaching ; Der Giftpilz (The Poisonous Mushroom) as mandatory reading!

[Magwa]

True that!

They know just enough to be dangerous. But think they know it all and you are wrong !
