I was skimming down the forum as I do on occasion and found this link somebody had posted:http://www.mainecwptraining.com/NO_CARRY_ZONES.html
So when I was checking that out I see that it says:
I am concerned about these particular statements because I often conceal carry when attending church as part of the routine the kids go to "children's church" which could be distorted to "child care". Really any church could be argued to have "child care" during a regular service.
Also I don't often conceal carry at my in-laws house but it has/could happen. My mother in law runs a daycare from their house with 10 or so kids, sometimes my children are there during "business" hours when I go to pick them up. Also what if the owner has a hunting rifle in same building as the residential child care locked away in a different part of the house.
Where can I find more information about the residential child care facilities?
