This poor feller has been nailed for having an unloaded and taken apart gun in his own personal property on school grounds. There is so many things wrong with this world today.

No wonder today's youth want to sit around the house instead of going out into the wild.

Freakin' Facebook !

Why is everyone so attached to that stupidshit ?

So much more than just Facebook. Your car is your own personal property in MO. Not the school property.

What happened to a grain of common sense. He was not some nutball planning a school shooting. Wait a minute, you can't profile against nutballs, that would violate their rights. There is no common sense any more.

I hope he really wins his appeal to this mess.

Every day about 3:15pm in every town in the state someone should call the law and report that they think there is a vehicle on school property with a gun in it....Because quite likely there is.

Eventually maybe they'll tire of the bullshit.

This one has a semi happy ending. Seems like social media may have helped him get his message out. And it may change how MO. law sees firearms in locked vehicles.

Just another one of those fuzzy gray areas that befuddle anyone that carries a firearm. In MO, it is legal for someone 21 or older to keep a loaded firearm in a vehicle. MO Castle Doctrine extends to a vehicle to cover self defense in the case of a car jacking. Your car or truck is personal property and requires permission or a warrant to search, just like a house or domicile.

But, schools are state property, gathering places of more than a few people, off limits to loaded firearms. But your cars and trucks are personal property and should be exempt. Looks like it will be clearer in the future.
