Re: LCCC student caught with gun on campus
He's being charged because hes a student. A non student with a LTCF is permitted unless there is signage forbidding firearms.

Re: LCCC student caught with gun on campus
That sucks if I'm misreading it, Can you post a link where I can get the correct info? I think my mistake was ignoring that we are a "shall issue" and not the "right to carry" state. My bad, Thanks for the correction.
