misconduct involving weapons; instigation
HB 2864 amends Arizona law to define "misconduct involving weapons," adding 17 specific prohibited actions. Key provisions include banning concealed carry of deadly weapons near schools, polling places, or in vehicles during serious crimes, and prohibiting instigating others to commit such offenses (newly added in subsection A.17). The law directly affects individuals carrying weapons in restricted locations or circumstances, such as failing to disclose weapons to police or supplying firearms to those likely to commit felonies. Exceptions cover law enforcement, military personnel, licensed museums, and specific educational activities, but the bill focuses on expanding prohibited conduct rather than altering penalties.
