In Maryland, which of the following locations is generally prohibited for carrying a concealed firearm, even with a permit?

Restaurants
Schools
Private vehicles
Churches

The correct answer is: Schools

In Maryland, carrying a concealed firearm is generally prohibited in schools. This is due to strict laws aimed at maintaining safety in educational environments. The prohibition extends to all public and private primary and secondary schools, as well as areas within 1,000 feet of school property. These regulations reflect the state's commitment to ensuring a safe learning environment for students. Other locations, such as restaurants, may have specific stipulations depending on their policies and the presence of alcohol, while private vehicles are generally permitted for firearm storage and transportation, provided that they adhere to certain legal requirements. Churches or places of worship may also have different rules based on the specific policies of the institution. However, schools remain a clear and consistent restriction under Maryland law.
