Q. Permit to carry while living in a school zone. How may I exit my property without breaking the law?

January 24, 2023

A: I agree with Sarah's answer. You can exit your property safely by keeping the firearm unloaded and locked inside a firearms rack inside your vehicle while you are still within 1,000 feet proximity of the school. You can also carry the firearm within 1,000 feet of a public school as long as the property your are on is private property. The keyword is "private." As a general rule, Federal law does not apply to activity that takes place on private property.

Q. can someone be deported if they are convicted of shoplifting? the person has no other convictions.

January 10, 2023

A: It will not affect their green card unless they have other prior convictions of theft or those that evince bad character or moral turpitude. This alone probably won't because of a rule called the "Petty Theft Exception," which is exactly what it sounds like: a one-time exception to the rule against deportable offenses when that who commits a single act of low-grade theft during their time in the United States. Deportable offenses drastically vary between jurisdictions and are often arbitrarily applied, but as a general rule, it is a good idea to remain lawful if a person wishes to remain a lawful permanent resident of the United States.
