it would be a felony (it's a brand new law, forced on us by the courts, but I believe I read that it would be a felony to bring it into a government building, court, etc.). There are a SLEW of places prohibited by law, and anywhere else can post an official sign prohibiting guns (though I believe that would only be a misdemeanor offense, unfortunately, if it were disobeyed):
Concealed carry is prohibited on public transportation, at a bar or restaurant that gets more than half its revenue from the sale of alcohol, at a public gathering or special event that requires a permit (e.g. a street fair or festival), at a place where alcohol is sold for special events, and on private property where the owner has chosen not to allow it (and, unless the property is a private residence, has posted an appropriate sign). Concealed carry is also not allowed at any school, college or university, preschool or daycare facility, government building, courthouse, prison, jail, detention facility, hospital, playground, park, Cook County Forest Preserve area, stadium or arena for college or professional sports, amusement park, riverboat casino, off-track betting facility, library, zoo, museum, airport, nuclear facility, or place where firearms are prohibited under federal law.
