The Gun-Free School Zones Act is a patently unconstitutional federal law and should be resisted and rejected by the states and the people until it is repealed.

Remember, the Constitution trumps unconstitutional federal law. It is an invalid law and the other branches of the federal government should treat it as such.

Trump should get on Ryan and McConnell to repeal this 1000 foot dreck of a law.

Adding a few more details (not disagreeing with your comments on the bill) ......

However, exceptions exist in 17 states where laws have been passed that allow for weapons to be carried in school if and when approved by certain school officials.

In Mississippi, for instance, one may carry a weapon into a school upon receiving approval from the school board, as noted by an NBC News report from 2013.

Just to be clear, at the time there were 18 states where such exceptions existed, including California. That changed when a bill signed into law last October by California Gov. Jerry Brown went into effect this January.
