You’d probably be off limits in most of a typical town.

Consider how many people would be in violation sitting in their own living room simply because of their proximity to a school.

They have in effect lost their 2nd amendment rights because the fools in Washington passed a law after they chose to buy a house close to a public school.

There are a number of exceptions in the current federal gun free school zone law. Here are a few: If you are on private property.

If you are in a vehicle passing through, and the gun is unloaded and in a locked case.

If you have a permit to carry the gun, issued from the state you are in.

If you are hired by the school and have permission from them.

Assuming they would bother to read the Constitution, they would come across the specific comment of "no Ex Post Facto". Ideally, this should prevent such a situation, but since when do judges care.......
