[Bryn-gwlad] Firearms in the SCA

[Bethany]

I've been told that if they find anything the school would consider a weapon
- including a pocket knife - if they looked in your car, you're technically
breaking the law. They may not enforce it or the people who told me that may
be incorrect, but I never go on school grounds for anything unless I have to
because of that.

 - Alasa, who only remembers the parts of the laws that might get her in
trouble, and may not always be correct...
