Having had the same vehicle broken into twice while parked at school, I would certainly second this suggestion. (Fortunately, no firearms were stolen either time.)[/quote]
now that would be a sticky report to file with local LEO...
Too bad your guns got stolen from your truck , when you parked the car behind your house one night..[/quote]
Why? It's not illegal to have guns on "school property", no matter what bogus signs are scattered about.

Yes, but that does not seem to be the law he was referring to by this statement
I'll tell you, there ain't one. We were being nice rather than call Bologna.

Actually this bill HB 2112 is what he was talking about.
SECTION 1.  Section 37.125(a), Education Code, is amended to read as follows:
(a)Â Â A person commits an offense if, in a manner intended to cause alarm or personal injury to another person or to damage school property, the person intentionally exhibits, uses, [by exhibiting, using,] or threatens [threatening] to exhibit or use a firearm:
(1)Â Â in or on any property, including a parking lot, parking garage, or other parking area, that is owned by a private or public school; or
(2)Â Â on[, interferes with the normal use of a building or portion of a campus or of] a school bus being used to transport children to or from school-sponsored activities of a private or public school.
SECTION 2.  This Act applies only to an offense committed on or after the effective date of this Act. An offense committed before the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in effect at the time the offense was committed, and the former law is continued in effect for that purpose. For the purposes of this section, an offense was committed before the effective date of this Act if any element of the offense occurred before that date.
SECTION 3.  This Act takes effect September 1, 2007.
NRA/TSRA signed off on the bill because it simply added the phrase "Intentionally" to existing law.
What bill has a law which replaces 46.03?frizzen wrote:Also, effective sept 1 the general prohibition against guns on school premises will be replaced with a new law that defines prohibited behaviors rather than possesion.

The bill I think you are looking for is HB 1815. It reads;
SECTION 1.  Section 46.02, Penal Code, is amended by amending Subsection (a) and adding Subsections (a-1) and (a-2) to read as follows:
(a)Â Â A person commits an offense if the person [he] intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly carries on or about his or her person a handgun, illegal knife, or club if the person is not:
(1)Â Â on the person's own premises or premises under the person's control; or
(2)Â Â inside of or directly en route to a motor vehicle that is owned by the person or under the person's control.
(a-1)Â Â A person commits an offense if the person intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly carries on or about his or her person a handgun in a motor vehicle that is owned by the person or under the person's control at any time in which:
(1)Â Â the handgun is in plain view; or
(2)Â Â the person is:
(A)Â Â engaged in criminal activity, other than a Class C misdemeanor that is a violation of a law or ordinance regulating traffic;
(B)Â Â prohibited by law from possessing a firearm; or
(C)Â Â a member of a criminal street gang, as defined by Section 71.01.
(a-2)Â Â For purposes of this section, "premises" includes real property and a recreational vehicle that is being used as living quarters, regardless of whether that use is temporary or permanent. In this subsection, "recreational vehicle" means a motor vehicle primarily designed as temporary living quarters or a vehicle that contains temporary living quarters and is designed to be towed by a motor vehicle. The term includes a travel trailer, camping trailer, truck camper, motor home, and horse trailer with living quarters.
