Incorrect. This is another situation where you have to read the entire statute (amendments are usually added to the end).mkmulin13 wrote:This is my first post, so hello all. This site is great! I will say that the law is very difficult for us to interpret and that we do so very differently. My answer to the "Billy Graham Crusade" is NO!

The questions that interest me more are the "gray area" ones. For instance, if a non-school related organization is renting that high school football stadium for a non-school related event, does the law still apply? For example... If a church organization wanted to rent the stadium for a crusade event, would the fact that the stadium owner is the ISD make it illegal for you to carry into the event? (Think Billy Graham crusade, or something like that.)
PC 46.035 (b) (6): on the premises of a church, synagogue, or other established place of religious worship.
Although it is in a stadium and not during a school function, I believe it now has been an established place of religious worship. I think there are three options in cases of uncertainty: (1) find out if it is legal to ccw and follow applicable rules to the place/event, (2) if still unclear about ccw, that is why it is called ccw...nobody knows, (3) if uncertain don't carry to the event.
I will definately say that I don't advocate violating laws and would hope all would abide by them. This is why this forum is great. We can get a different perspective on the law from other people.
