Mud Marine,SASS#54686 Life Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 All Idaho voters need to contact their State Senator and both of their State House Representatives to support this as an important commonsense solution to school shootings. HB 415 allows teachers and school employees to carry firearms in Idaho schools. Idaho is protecting our children by enhancing school safety under our rights under the 2nd Amendment 5 2 Quote Link to comment

Quote I hope it exempts any school personnel Pretty comprehensive list. Quote or anyone who happens to be on the school grounds, No. Quote who stop any individual, with whatever means they use, who tries to hurt anyone, in any school from a law suite by the perpetrator or his family from a criminal or civil lawsuit Yes Kudos to the state for posting bill text with deletions and additions in a human readable format: https://legislature.idaho.gov/wp-content/uploads/sessioninfo/2024/legislation/H0415.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment
John Kloehr Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) On followup for who is covered under the employee definition, from the bill text ... Quote (i) "School employee" means ... volunteers So not a visitor or random parent, but anyone legitimately working at the school. Edited January 28 by John Kloehr 1 1 Quote Link to comment
John Kloehr Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Also public schools can not post "no guns" signs, but other (by inference through omission, private and religious schools still may post public signage). This respects property and religious freedoms. In combination with no civil liability for engaging, there is also a liability shield for not engaging. Carrying a firearm implies no duty to engage. This provides comprehensive immunity. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Subdeacon Joe Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 This "expands" nothing! It RESTORES constitutionally protected civil rights. We need to stop using the same distorted wording that the anti-civil rights advocates use. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
