"Concealed weapons would be prohibited in certain areas, such as state government offices, schools, colleges, day-care centers, bars, sporting events, and any business that posts a sign banning them."

The Overland Park Chamber of Commerce opposes the bill because it says signs are not enough to deter someone from carrying a gun into a business.

Sounds like GA too.  I think most states have those restrictions.

Concealed carry is only verbotten in schools and courthouses here in PA.  As much as I hate this hell-hole, it's actually a VERY gun-friendly state.

Wait a minute. When they say "schools" do they mean you cant go IN the school or you cant go on the school PROPERTY? You mean I couldnt carry a pistol and park in the parking lot and wait for my kid?

It seems to be a grey area.  I actually like the way it's written in Washington.  It bans carry at schools (highschool and below), but specifically allows a person with a CPL to carry when picking up or dropping off students.

Sounds a lot like Texas' laws, too.

VA I know has restrictions.  IN has these restrictions.

Ha ha.
Colorado lets you carry in bars. They really only ban where metal detectors are and businesses that post.
Luckily GOA didn't win in their effort to kill the "watered down" bill.

I sure hope Kansas passes this, a compromise is better than nothing.

I think most states have provisions where as long as you remain in your car you are ok....

I'll just be glad if it passes. Any of those places will just be a judgement call on my part as to whether I take the risk to carry illegaly. That's what I have to do now anyway.

Ohio has all those bullshit restrictions. As long as there is not a metal detector at the door, what they don't know won't hurt them.

Bullshit.  Schools are the place a parent most definitely NEEDS to be armed.  Those places are targets of opportunity for pedophiles, abducters, and maniacs.

I'll be god damned if I am going to be powerless to protect my child while I am there.

Well, in Michigan it meant that you couldn't go onto school property with a gun, but there was an exemption for parents who had a CHL and a CH in there vehicle while dropping their kids off at school.

It doesn't matter though, since under federal law it is illegal to pass within 1000 feet of ANY school with any firearm (including a unloaded rifle in a case in your trunk).

That's why I love PA.... The only prohibited places (besides National Parks) are Courtrooms, Jails, and secured areas of Airports.

Courtrooms and Jails MUST provide secured lockup facilities to check legally carried sidearms.

It's a beautiful thing.

IIRC, that Federal law was struck down as unConstitutional.  Seems it muddies up the intrastate vs. interstate commerce issue.  Basically, the SCOTUS said that the Fed .gov had no business making such a law.

Yep, we's lucky, not many places we can't carry compared to many states.  A business can post "NO GUNS", but it doesn't mean much of anything.

Several states ban CHP on school property and I fear Kansas might go that route.

US vs. Lopez overturned the original law in 1995, but I thought that it had be rewritten and repassed in 1996.

Better than no CCW at all, which is the current situation.  Hopefully we can get enough support in the Senate to get it past Miss Governor who believes only cops are capable of preventing their guns from being taken away and used against them.
