Secure the weapon while parking elsewhere and walk to the school property unarmed.Right, which means you cannot have the firearm in the vehicle, if I am correct. How obscene is that? Not only can you not carry, but you cannot leave it in your vehicle, as Sgt. Knaub suggests is possible.

Fed law is 1000 feet but if you have a permit or dropping off/picking up you are good to go IIRC. That's why people say to get a Virgina vs using Utah for Virginia.
Maryland? I don't think it extends further than school grounds per 4-102-B?

I feel like the church thing is because of church schools? In that churches are not prohibited places unless you are in the school part of the church for churches that have schools?
Every single one of those is a "no" if in Leonardtown or LaPlata as their local "no firearms" ordinances pre-date state preemption and therefore carry the day.
At least that's my understanding.

I think I've read here that some permit restrictions say and I'm paraphrasing not valid where prohibited. When I read this statement I think of not only the " unlawful " places, but establishments that post on their doors firearms are prohibited. So it seems to me if you carry in one of the places contrary to the signs posted you may be arrested and lose your permit.
That is not how preemption works.
When a state preempts local ordinances, they preempt ALL of them, existing or future. The ordinances do not come off the books, but they are unenforceable.
This is why there are issues with some suppliers shipping ammo to MoCo and Annapolis. They both banned the sale of ammunition. The state then passed the preemption law, so those local ordinances cannot be enforced, but since they are on the books, some suppliers will not ship, thinking it is against the local ordinances.

But these are private schools. The law states public schools.

Depends...do you have your DC letter?
Churches illegal to carry? I've heard this but never confirmed it, can't find it anyplace as law. Is this one of those rumors that become "true". TD
