    Default Firearm Free Zones

    Does anybody know if any OFFICIAL firearm free zones have been declared? I have tried Googling this but all I get is mindless drivel from GFSA.

    I work in a number of areas with "Gun-free Zone" signs everywhere. I'm busy applying for a licence for SD and I'm a bit concerned about mentioning the number of medical students and doctors that have been attacked in hospital. I don't need someone turning down my application because hospitals are "gun-free zones".

    As far as I know, there is no officially declared FFZ's and the signs posted is basically a 'management' decission and thus they can ask you to leave the premises but not presecute you. I am just not sure what is the situation regarding government buildings like state hospitals. I would say that the attacks you are mentioning is actually a very good motivation but also a potential sticky point as you have to deal with a so called FFZ.

    I believe Corne is correct there have been no Firearm Free Zones declared yet.

    schools are not gun free zones as contemplated by the act but a location where the "landlord" has stipulated no admittance to firearms similiar to some shopping malls and government buildings courts etc the difference is immense!
    I am studying an awesome brand of leg fighting which was inspired by dung beetles and I think my brand of Kraft Manure is superior to all other styles ever invented. Furthermore I challenge all other manurists to a rolling contest where we shall establish whose manure ball is the biggest! I shall call it Honest Kraft Manure and declare it superior to all other brands of manure and will tell you that I have claimed the lineage directly to Imshi the great Dragon Kru Master Beetler who invented manuring, by gathering all manure from different animals together and making it work as the worlds most effective fertilizer. I proved myself by being members of not one but three super elite special gardening departments who were responsible for spreading manure to combat weed infestations!

    I just saw an application form on www.saps.gov.za that is the following:
    "Application to Declare Premises A Firearm Free Zone"

    Now i have a few questions...

    Does this mean that a mall or hospital has to apply for a gun free zone?
    And if they have and there is no notices on the entrance, can I asked them to see any documentation regarding this?

    Then I know somebody is going to throw the "Reserved the right...." statement at me....

    Is this one of those GRAY areas or am I missing the buck completely...
