In Louisiana, carrying a concealed firearm in public without a permit is considered:

  1. Legal, if the firearm is unloaded

  2. Illegal, except for law enforcement officers

  3. Legal, if you are over 21

  4. Legal, with certain exceptions

The correct answer is: Illegal, except for law enforcement officers

In Louisiana, carrying a concealed firearm in public without a permit is considered illegal. Option A is incorrect because even if the firearm is unloaded, it is still illegal to carry it concealed without a permit. Option C is incorrect because the legal age for carrying a concealed firearm is 21, but having a permit is still required. Option D is also incorrect because while there are certain exceptions, such as for law enforcement officers, the general rule is that carrying a concealed firearm without a permit is illegal. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
