Under Alabama law, what is the penalty for carrying a firearm onto school property?

  1. Fine and possible jail time

  2. Community service

  3. Mandatory firearms safety course

  4. No penalty if the firearm is unloaded

The correct answer is: Fine and possible jail time

Carrying a firearm onto school property is considered a serious offense in Alabama and is strictly prohibited. Therefore, the penalty for this offense is also severe. Option B, community service, is not a suitable penalty for this crime as it is not proportional to the gravity of the offense. Option C, mandatory firearms safety course, may be required in some cases but is not the primary penalty for this offense. Option D, no penalty if the firearm is unloaded, is incorrect as this action is still considered a violation of the law and can lead to serious consequences. Therefore, the correct answer is A, which entails a fine and possible jail time.
