i had asked this among other questions in one of my recent posts, but i believe it may be worth asking separately as to focus on this issue.
if i'm completely wrong, please at least help me understand it correctly instead of just beating me down.
not only am i trying to PROPERLY educate myself by studying and reading all these gun laws, but I also find myself finding things that (in my opinion) seem to sound contradicting.
according to this part
it sounds like i LEGALLY CAN have a firearm on school property if it is NOT LOADED, AND IS:........in a LOCKED FIREARMS rack that is on a motor vehicle.
is that correct???
which brings up another question??? i thought the only way to carry in a VEHICLE was unloaded, locked in a case designed for a gun and out of reach.
well a "LOCKED FIREARMS RACK ON A MOTOR VEHICLE" doesn't sound like "in a case and out of reach". so how do i understand that??? or is there possibly a contradiction of sort worth looking into???
to clarify one more thing. my main intent is not to carry in such manner on school ground, but more the point of
"HOW did it get onto the school grounds in that condition to begin with???" it seems to contradict the law stating that a gun must be unloaded, locked in a case designed for a gun and out of reach.
thanks for helping me understand this.
