The correct answer is: Schools and school properties

Carrying a concealed weapon is regulated by state law and certain locations are considered off-limits for carrying them. In South Carolina, schools and school properties are restricted areas for carrying a concealed weapon. This includes both public and private schools, as well as any property that is owned, leased, or operated by a school such as school buses, sports fields, and parking areas. Other options, such as state parks, restaurants that serve alcohol, and public libraries are not specifically mentioned in the regulations and may vary depending on the locality. However, in general, it is best to avoid carrying a concealed weapon in any location where it is likely to cause fear or discomfort to others. This includes places where children are likely to be present, where alcohol is being consumed, and where there may be a large presence of people such as libraries. It is important to always research and understand the laws and regulations in your specific area when it comes to carrying a concealed weapon.
