Thanks for everyone’s input on this matter. The child mentioned in this story has transferred schools, so this issue has really become a mute point. The real issue though is the language of this law. The language should be changed to reflect clarity that will leave no doubt in anyone’s mind what it says. So let’s use this as a learning experience and notify our state reps to change this law for the better.

New Law proposal: Anyone with a license to carry a concealed weapon is exempt from 18 U.S.C. § 922: US Code - Section 922: Unlawful acts and ORC 2923.122 Illegal conveyance or possession of deadly weapon or dangerous ordnance or of object indistinguishable from firearm in school safety zone.

A person with a license to carry a concealed weapon may enter school zones, buildings, day care centers and all related school owned property. Any attempt to prevent a licensed person from exercising this right, that person or person(s)will be guilty of a felony in the 4th degree.

I think this says it all!
