Classes are now underway on state university campuses in Texas, where a new law went into effect last month allowing anyone with a concealed weapon license to bring a handgun on to campus, as long as it remains concealed. At the University of Houston, many students, like Ali Rajwani, express little concern. “I am pretty indifferent about it,” Rajwani said. “It is not like I think ‘Oh, God, I am going to be shot on campus!’ I don’t feel that in any way. I don’t really feel any change at all.” |

| Reactions are mixed; libs, oh my God, those working on their degrees will get to see that licensed gun carriers are actually decent responsible citizens. Conservatives; What's the big deal? I carry as it is preventive for many types of shooting making getting a degree safer for all. |

The 'controversy' is STOOPID.
This law will not do what the idiots insist it will. People intent upon shooting masses of innocents did so without regard to any campus bans.
So, how would this aggravate that situation?
Irrefutable answer: It won't. At least, a certain amount of deterrence will occur and at best, if an active shooter incident happens, there now will be the possibility of a licensed carrier taking him out.
But don't count on brainwashed snowflakes to grasp the logic. After all, that's what all the brainwashing is about. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
