Guns stored in vehicles in public school parking lots?

I understand what you are saying, but I will suggest the definition of "premises" may prevail, in that the parking lot is not considered part of the restricted premises. However, since the Labor Code uses the word "property" there may be some conflict. And is school property considered an extension of the "school district?" I might say yes to that. So while I stick to what I said, I will take consideration of your reply.

Interesting point. Thanks for the additional comments.

In Texas all the way to the school house door, no entry then.
