Legality and the Grey Areas

Legally you should be able to carry to the courthouse, which by law the county is to provide a storage locker for your arms, provided you are licensed to carry. This seems to be very spotty some places report this has been done, others not. The "lawfull purpose" clause of the school section seems interesting, but unproven in my opinion.

In reality, might equals right. If the local PD decides that you are breaking the law even though you are within the one that is written down, you're in for a ride. Simply stated, they have more guns and support than you do. There is such a thing as "defacto standards" which are different than written standards. Law in todays world seems more to be a "defacto standard" of whatever whoever is in charge seems to think it is. Good luck.

When I am running errands downtown and I have to pay a parking ticket or speak with an officer, I always have my CCW.
