Mark, I have no opinion on your knowledge one way or the other, although I am sure it is in no way deficient.

I've been a member of both GeorgiaPacking and GeorgiaCarry for a number of years. The question has been asked and answered there before. The answer is the same as you posted - no mention of any requirement to be stationed in Georgia in order to be subject to the laws of the state while within its boundaries.

Did I miss somewhere in Mr Childers opinion that one must be stationed in Georgia? I don't recall seeing either 'station' or 'stationed', or 'permanent duty station' in what you posted.

I was of the opinion what we were discussing Georgia.

I'm not really asking for your opinion on the law as I have no intention of trying to convince you one way or the other. I only wish for you to point out where it says one must be stationed in Georgia to be subject to the laws of the state when you are in Georgia.


So... did I miss the words 'station', 'stationed', or 'permanent duty station' in Senior Assistant Attorney General Childers' unofficial opinion or not?

The new law makes it quite clear that regardless of where military personnel are stationed, they are exempt from the cc laws (as well as a couple of others - see the relevant code sections mentioned above).

It's been a week since the gentleman was asked to provide a citation to the law requiring one must be stationed in Georgia to be allowed to carry on one's GFL/GWL.

I think we can consider that myth .... busted.

One does not need to be stationed in GA. Merely in the state of GA with a current enlisted/commissioned military ID. This does not allow a GA resident who is stationed in a state other than GA to use their military ID as a GFL (GWL).

You mischaracterize me, sir.

You stated a point of law; we asked for a citation to the point of law you stated.

We would still value your contribution to the body of knowledge on the subject and are asking you to provide a citation. I see no 'pissing', merely a request for knowledge.

Can you help to educate us, or not?
