* Don't have to declair up front to an officer you have a weapon. But have to inform them if they ask.

Its legal to conceal carry in public schools here, has been for 12 or 13 years... and no mass shootings cause of it. No open carry in public schools though.
The idea is, a shooter has no idea, which teachers are armed, which janitors or principals. It could be they all are, or none are... so lock down is always first response, while law enforcement shows up to handle it... but no teacher wants to be locked in their room unarmed if a shooter manages to break down the door and starts shooting them.
Private schools, are private property and can say you cannot, but if you violate that it is a minor trespass infraction.
The only place you can't carry open or concealed is the federal buildings... federal law.
No! Instead, the problem is the rulers have never been restrained by laws because there is no way to enforce the laws the rulers disregard.

You have lots of experience. People who haven’t handled weapons are dangerous to themselves and others
Gun slide jammed cocking it and then went off in my hand when I tried to clear it. It was pointed at the oak floor at angle. Everybody was behind me. The bullet ricocheted off the floor and went into a plaster wall. I never covered the groove or hole. I use both to preach about gun safety.
to clarify, are you saying we could have laws to limit law enforcement and military. but everyone else should be able to buy what they want?
I think New York and California might have something to say about being the worst. Not entirely sure, but I think they are still 'may issue' states.
@spartan55
It's New York (especially NYC), New Jersey, and Pennsylvania (especially Philly) which are the three worst states in the US to get a gun. New Jersey is by far the worst because of the mafia, but I lived in Jersey too. You have to jump through so many hoops and BS to get one in these states. Not to mention, if you get caught doing something wrong with a gun, the several people you listed as a safety reference, could also get charged.
Wow really? How is that legal? (referring to your last comment about safety references being charged) That's pretty fu.
@spartan55
They would get charged as an accessory to the crime by voluntarily aiding the criminal before the crime, or something like that. And while I don't think it happens too often, it is very much possible and legal in Philly.
