Debate it all you want. We are not talking about an open air public setting. We are talking about an enclosed space. The library I go to has only one room. Not worth chancing to me. Don't want to be the test case.Beau, that's open for debate. The code specifies that the property is being used by the school for a school function. The implication is that the sole use of the property is for the school function at that point (reserved by the school).
Otherwise, if a school takes a field trip to the circle anyone who carries around the circle is subject to arrest.
I think the issues arises much to the fact that there is no case law, as yet. The law doesn't distinguish between enclosed property or open air property, so I don't think proximity to the kids is the crux of the issue.
However, I'd rather not be the test case either, but my guess is it will get tested as there are bound to be school groups somewhere someone is carrying.
