Imagine that, the media doesn't know what they are talking about. :banghead:

Just the fact, that they had to verify with the DPS, about even carrying in a city park, should tell you all you need to know about their level of knowledge regarding gun laws. The way it was written was, as if they were surprised, that carry was legal there at all. It's no wonder we get the type of misinformation spread by the media, on anything gun related. :grumble

You also can't have a gun in a public park if a school-sponsored event is going on there, because Texas law makes it clear. Guns are not allowed on school premises, at school activities, or in school buses.
So is the law really written that if I'm in a city park, such as River Legacy Park, Veterans Park, etc owned by the City of Arlington and there happens to be a school bus in the parking lot and kids playing on the play ground, I can't carry there? I understand the issues with zoo's but haven't seen regular, everyday, publicly accessed, no fee parks being possibly prohibited.

Everywhere school children may go as a school sponsored activity, does not make it unlawful to have a gun. If that were the case, every time a sports team stopped at McDonald's, it would be unlawful to carry. The WFAA website is wrong. Just as the Capitol, doesn't become off limits when a school takes kids there.
