OK.....that!!!!!!!....is the Murky, Mucky, Stinky, GREY area that the legislature is trying to clean up from SB308. Does dropping off and picking up with a GWL mean going into the school office??.............it probably does.....BUT........interpretation is the key!!.....Does your school's Resource Officer have detailed and intimate knowledge of 308??...I think not!!......will the Resource Officer either body slam you or taze you immediatley upon seeing your weapon on your person??...I think so!!

SO PLEASE!!!!!!!! until this is cleaned up hopefully in the 2013 session.........just stay to the absolute black and white...in your vehicle pulling up to the pickup area for pickup and drop off....unless you want to spend thousands of dollars to finally prove to someone you were right, and if you do....there is NOTHING you can do to the LEO who reacted.!!

Sounds good to me

Sounds like goober talk. My wife gets caught with my pistol I left in the glove box while picking my child up is considered a felon by the court. My 21 year old son with a weapons license is fine carrying up to taking that step on his college then he is a criminal and treated as such.

The constitution re-written; As an American citizen you do have the right to keep and bear arms after you pay the $100 or whatever amount of fee we the government arbitrarily decide upon based on "our" financial needs in order for you to actually exercise the right.

Every common citizen must disarm in order to participate in prayer or step on property in church. The church has no legal right to decide who may or may not be armed. The church has no freedom to decide as that decision has been made by politicians who have their best interest at heart.

Gentlemen, we still have work and rights to restore.

You are absolutely right. Georgia Carry just appeared before the GA supreme court regarding this part of the laws and was immediately shot down. I truly believe that thus denial was more driven by emotion than reason only because they presented right after the sandy hook incident. We regroup and try again. The biggest voice we have right now is the ballet box!

So how does this apply to me at my aejatc electrical apprenticeship school? Funded through my union, so would it be considered private property?

A school is a school... No matter what... Cant have it on the grounds unless as stated below.

Folks.......

This is in PDF format........print it out and keep it for your review, record keeping etc. Some people have it printed and in their car.

Thanks for posting this.

You would be amazed at the number of people, most who have never heard of GCO, who come to talk to us at a recruiting booth and want to discuss the Public Gathering laws.

Or the drinking issues, or the holster requirement, or the unloaded carry requirement, or the motor vehicle carry with or without a GWCL requirement, or the Concealed Carry Permit VS. the Open Carry Permit, or the ............

I think you get the idea.

Another great source is to go to this website: www.pocketpressinc.com

Order the "Pocket Guide to Georgia Criminal Laws" and you can carry around the actual laws in your pocket. Easy reference, easy to use for diffusing the awkward conversation with the guy that swears you must use a holster and it has to be above your knee and only on your right side, unloaded, of course!!
