2. REQUEST INFORMATION
- Detailed information of your request:
Following a recent Request for Comment from Weazel News. I would like some further clarifications.
The initial request for comment mentioned an incident that took place on the 30th of December. The following was subsequently provided as a response:
The firearms regulations are aimed at civilians, and the government intends to regulate on duty peace officers and government officials by internal equipment guidelines.- Given this, can you provide further clarification on what section it states that a government official's use of firearms is solely dictated by internal protocols? Are SASG and JB members exempt from FLD's regulations while on-duty?
However, under the [Information] Obtaining a Personal Firearms Permit it likewise states:Alex Schill wrote: ↑Tue Jan 10, 2023 4:32 pm Regarding your follow-up, the LSPD will not comment on further details in this particular incident. However, to clarify, every Firearms License holder has a duty to be aware of the regulations they agree to when they sign their Firearms Application. Within this public display of Rules and Regulations, the part pertaining to your inquiry is posted clearly in the following part of the agreement:
If future firearm changes are made, they will be released publically via a Press Release. All citizens should be up to date and know the penal code, laws, and regulations of the state, especially those with a Firearm Permit. The Los Santos Police Department is tasked with enforcing the laws and regulations set forth within this State. I believe the terminology pertaining to any further questions or details of interpretation is clear.While exercising the privileges granted to the licensee under the terms of this license, the licensee shall not, when carrying a personal firearm:- Consume any alcoholic beverages.
- Be in a place having a primary purpose of dispensing alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption.
- Be under the influence of any medication or drug, whether prescribed or not.
- Refuse to show the license or surrender the personal firearm to any peace officer upon demand.
- Impede any peace officer in the performance of their duties.
- Present himself/herself as a peace officer to any person unless employed by an agency which is defined by the State of San Andreas, as a Law Enforcement Agency.
- Carry a personal firearm not listed on the permit.
- Carry more than one of each personal firearm listed on the permit.
You may not be in an establishment that serves alcohol, with your firearm(s) in your possession.- Can further clarification on this be given? Are license holders not able to be at an establishment that serves alcohol? Or are they only not allowed, if the main purpose is ''dispensing alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption''?
On duty Peace Officers and employees of the San Andreas State Government whilst on official duties are exempt from this rule.
- When was this change implemented? How can a change to the current regulations be requested?
