The Argus Leader reported Tuesday that the push to prohibit public colleges and universities from restricting guns on campuses was defeated in the Senate. Yes, you read that correctly. This bill didn't die in committee, as a similar measure did in 2008. This stinker made it to the Senate floor, which says a lot about the current mindset among lawmakers, and among all of us.
The bill narrowly passed out of the Senate Judiciary Committee last week. The South Dakota Gun Owners Association was the sole supporter of the bill, saying that it would allow students to protect themselves on campus. |

It is such a terrible idea to liberal anti-gun trolls.
The facts, however, are that it has not been a problem anywhere it is allowed.
To quote the same liberals. "If it saves one life it is worth it."
We will never know how many lives have been saved by allowing campus carry. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
