At this point I have admitted to having a gun and that I was on school property.
To begin with, that's why some people refuse to answer such questions.

Being in your car on school property is not illegal, so the cop has no valid basis for an arrest. He might arrest you, but it the charge isn't going to stick.

:iagree:

This has been hashed over in numerous threads. If you have a valid CHL, then you are legal. The only caveat would be if you had a non-resident CHL (CWP, CHP, CCW, etc.) issued by another state and were in a 'Gun Free School Zone. Then, they might have a leg to stand on as the non-resident permits do not get you the exemption.
