What a fricking joke. I guess if you live across the street from the school your kid goes to, it too must be a gun free zone.

Read the feel good gun free school zones act. This act was passed in 1990 by congress and signed into law by the president. SCOTUS declared the feel good gun free school zones act null and void. In 1996 the US congress passed another version of the feel good gun free school zones act and it was signed into law by the president. Nearly every member of the US congress voted for this scummy law-twice.
This act provides for a 1,000 foot gun free zone around schools. The kid could have gone to jail.
like they were sayin, they dont want another Columbine...but someone needs to use a lil common sense in this case..but laws are laws? right? need to get this kid back in skool and put out an announcement of the final result...whether it is yes or no to guns in pupils vehicles off campus ..

The 1996 feel good gun free school zones act was attached to the violence against women act. The violence against women act is the one that is retroactive. If a guy was ever convicted of spousal abuse in his lifetime he cannot legally own a gun. Being accused of spousal abuse is enough to take your guns away in some states.
Most Republicans in the US house voted for this stuff. Those who opposed this scummy law were young Republicans.
Likewise, gun owners got robbed this past weekend. We were forced to give up ground without getting anything in return. Gun owners should not excuse those Congressmen who voted for this so-called compromise. In reality, there was no compromise since our firearms rights were not advanced in any way. We neither got a revocation of the semi-auto ban, nor did we get a repeal -- or even some exceptions to -- the Brady registration law. (Rather, more people will now be rejected after Brady checks.) We got nothing. So don't let your Congressmen tell you he voted for a compromise. When two people compromise, each side gets something. Ask him what we got in return. If he can't tell you, suggest to him that what he did was abdicate his duty to defend the Bill of Rights.
More than 300 Representatives join Schumer in trimming the Second Amendment. Once again, many of the freshmen Republicans led the way in opposing the assault on our liberties.
The vote in the House was 370-37; the following Reps. VOTED PRO-GUN by voting AGAINST H.R. 3610: Barcia (MI), Barton (TX), Becerra (CA), Beilenson (CA), Burr (NC), Chabot (OH), Chenoweth (ID), Coble (NC), Coburn (OK), Coleman (TX), Cooley (OR), Cox (CA), DeFazio (OR), Duncan (TN), Hall (TX), Hefley (CO), Hoekstra (MI), Hyde (IL), Istook (OK), Jacobs (IN), Kanjorski (PA), Kaptur (OH), Klink (PA), Klug (WI), Largent (OK), Nadler (NY), Neumann (WI), Rohrabacher (CA), Roybal-Allard (CA ), Salmon (AZ), Sanford (SC), Scarborough (FL), Schroeder (CO), Sensenbrenner (WI), Stearns (FL), Stockman (TX), and Tiahrt (KS). Thank the above Reps. and hold the others accountable.

Subparagraph (A) shall d o es not apply to the
possession of a firearm—
(i) on private property not part of school grounds;
(I) not loaded; and
(II) in a locked container, or a locked firearms rack
which t h a t is on a motor vehicle;
The kid may have an "out" depending on the specifics of the case.
Another sad case of overreaction by school officials. A perfect example of the slow erosion of rights we gave ourselves, as recorded in the Bill of Rights.
