How is within 5 miles of a school not a ban? Here's Houston, with a mark on the map for each elementary school, middle school, high school, college and university. Note the scale at the bottom right. That's 5 miles.

No gun ban indeed.
I thought you'd zoomed in at first...

I feel for you. My brother was living down there for a while, and asked us to send him some vitamins. Customs demanded to know what the Vitamin C and Calcium were made of.
