TX: Guns Heading to Texas Campuses After State Vote

Under the measure, private colleges will be able to ban guns, a win for Republicans who had said they didn’t want the Second Amendment to trump private-property rights.
In a concession to Democrats, public colleges will be able to create limited gun-free zones, so long as such designations are “reasonable” and don’t amount to a de facto campus-wide ban.

The bill’s sponsor, Senator Brian Birdwell, a Republican from Granbury, about 70 miles (112 kilometers) west of Dallas, said the opt-out provision was designed to allow guns to be prohibited in places of heightened security, such as biohazard labs, and not in common spaces, such as dormitories or libraries.

"University presidents and students warned that the policy could lead to accidental shootings, suicides and violence at alcohol-laced parties, while creating an air of intimidation during heated debates."

We keep seeing this bulldooky repeated over and over again, yet there is ample evidence available that in every state on every campus that allows licensed carry, none of those things have happened.

NONE.

The only places I see this fact pointed out is in comments on these articles. Never do I see it reported as fact in the stories themselves.

Somebody needs to open his mouth and SAY something, fer chrissake.
