I would appreciate some clarification from people that are smarter than me. I think everyone is well aware of what happened last week regarding a "sighting" of a man with a gun. My question is regarding if this was even illegal? State law leaves possession of firearms up to each individual school.
MCC student handbook, page 42 has a section on weapons, it would seem than that this is against the rules, but is it? I know they probably intend to include firearms in this, but it seems that section 53a-3 of the Connecticut General Statutes specifically excludes relation to the other section that they reference, section 53-206
As I read this, all other dangerous weapons, illegal in the state anyways would be against the handbook rules, but not firearms.
The second paragraph in the handbook would right off the bat make you think that at least a student would have to report to the "commanding officer", but it only lists that people required to carry a firearm because of employment need to visit. This would seem like students that wanted to carry for personal protection need not notify anyone.
Like I said initially, hopefully someone that is smarter than me can explain this a little better.
Thanks in advance
ENTIRE HANDBOOK Page 42 is the section that I am referencing above
