curious, is there going to be a march meet up in KC?
heck i dont think i seen a post from you or chaing since about the last meet, which is odd
... the only problem with the downtown area is (as I understand) that you have to be very careful where you walk, supposedly there are little cells of places where you cant OC,....
What are these areas you speak of? I know in some areas you cant OC within so many yards of a school or something to the effect. For instance, around my campus there are buildings and areas just off campus that are owned by the school or considered part of the school so no OC. This includes: Muddy's Coffee, Kin Lins Chinese Restaurant, Sahara Restaurant, the cleaners in the same shopping area, also there is a building on troost which is UMKCs career center and student clinic which is a no gun zone. You could technically CCW in these places but you get the point.
If there are other areas like this downtown I'd like to know em as I OC in KC and downtown quite often.
Why do you think that you cannot OC near a university building? The GFSZA only applies to K-12 and there is no restriction on OC, only that you have a permit issued by that state.

Because the school maintains a no guns on campus policy, you might get away with CCW but OCing wouldn't go over very well. Also, I'm a student there, so I can't risk challenging it.
Understand that, but you previously raised the question referring to "off campus."
What rule are you then challenging or is it just wanting to maintain a low profile?
I'm not sure what you mean, when I say off campus I mean its not within the main blocks of the Volker campus, but are still considered part of the school and its extended campus, thus the policy applies to my knowledge. Muddy's coffee would be one of the areas that I'm not too sure about. They are a privately owned business but the building they operate in is owned by UMKC and considered a part of the campus as far as I know. I don't risk OCing in there because if it were to come into question and I was found in violation of school policy I risk my college career.
I'm not expert on these areas though, that is why I was wondering if there were more areas to be aware of in the downtown area or if there are any municipal laws specific to OC that created these no OC "cells" or pockets. It is something I'd like to be more aware of.
Now you are getting into real estate law. Does the tenants lease contain such restrictions - it is the lessor that has ultimate control over the property unless there are such limitations stated. I doubt there are, but you could likely find out if its that important by filing an FOIA request.
if we want to bring it back to kansas city, thats fine but we have one more city to visit Grandview and yes we were talking about st joe, it really doesnt matter to me
