Firearms; prohibiting the carry of firearms into certain places; effective date.

HB 2822 prohibits carrying concealed or unconcealed firearms in most government buildings, courthouses, schools (except under specific policies), public sports venues during events, and gambling facilities. It specifically allows concealed carry on Oklahoma State Fair and Tulsa State Fairgrounds during the fairs, with event organizers permitted to authorize open carry. The bill modifies school policies, allowing private schools to adopt firearm policies with liability protection for governing entities, and gives school districts limited options for designated staff to carry guns. It also defines minimum-security requirements for event spaces (like fences, staffed access points, and metal detectors) to exempt certain temporary public events from the carry ban.
