Georgia HB915 - Campus Carry Okay!

New legislation passed in Georgia today removes the restriction on carrying concealed firearms ( with a "CHL" license) on a University Campus.
SECTION 5.
Said article is further amended by revising paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Code Section 16-11-127.1, relating to carrying weapons within school safety zones, at school functions, or on school property, as follows:
"(1) 'School safety zone' means in, on, or within 1,000 feet of any real property owned by or leased to any public or private elementary school, secondary school, or school board and used for elementary or secondary education and in, on, or within 1,000 feet of the campus of any public or private technical school, vocational school, college, university, or institution of postsecondary education."
