As far as I can read about the school zone, this applies to anybody that is not licensed by the state to legally carry a firearm in that state?
If you hold a CCW for that state it does not apply?
Please tell me what you think? (Highlighted REDarea below)
It shall be unlawful for any individual knowingly to possess a firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or foreign commerce at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone. [/b]
There are a few exceptions to the law which, such as being on private property, having been licensed to carry a firearm by the state where the school zone is located, or the firearm being unloaded and in a locked case. Title 18 U.S.C. Section 921 Definitions determines that a school zone is within 1000 feet of a school.
