To ALL Whom it May Concern:
The Federal Gun Free School Zone Act of 1995 Prohibits The Casual Possession of a Firearm within 1000 of a School for Children, but This Law has NOT been Enforced by The United States Federal Government in Quite a While, with a Caveat that it has been Enforced in Conjunction with other Federal Felonies.
Wyoming, like MANY other States, has NO such 1000 Foot 'Gun Free' Buffer Zone Prohibition around 'Schools for Children'.
The Federal Law 18 U.S.C. 922(q) ONLY Applies to and Effects Public Elementary, Public Middle, and Public High Schools, Operated by a Public Board of Education as Determined by The Laws of The Applicable State wherein The Question Concerning as to whether or not such 'School for Children' is Publically Funded and Publically Operated.
The Term 'School for Children' means a School for Person less than 18 Years of Age, under The Federal Law, as based, in Part, by MANY other States' Laws.
Under Federal Law 18 U.S.C. 922(q)(2) there are 6 Exceptions to This Law..., The Possession of a Wyoming Concealed Carry Permit being an Exception under United States Federal Law 18 U.S.C. 922(q)(2)(B)(ii).
The Federal Law so Enumerated DOES NOT Apply to or Effect: 1. Nursuries, 2. Day Cares, 3. Toddler Schools, 4. Pre-Kindergartens, 5. Private Schools (whether for Children or Adults), 6. Parochial Schools (whether for Children or Adults), or 7. Institutions of Higer Learning/Alternative Learning (i.e. Universities, Colleges, Post Graduate Schools, DUI Schools, GED Schools, Hunting Schools, CCW Schools, etc., whether Public, Private, or Parochial, whether Children are Attendance or not).
