When I was in college at the University of Iowa in 1991, there was a mass shooting. A graduate student, upset that he had not received a coveted honor, walked into a university building and shot and killed the three professors on his dissertation committee. He also killed his fellow student, the one who had been selected for the honor. |

Schools must not teach this kind of information, because it's just too dangerous in the hands of college students. |

No doubt it was illegal to possess a gun on the University of Iowa in 1991. That didn't stop the malcontent student from killing five people.
Why can't these liberals see that laws don't stop sickos, terrorists and malcontents?
The eight or so states that allow guns on campus have had zero problems. If there were any incidents, the liberal press would be all over it.
The stupidity of the people predicting that otherwise law abiding and licensed to conceal carry persons will suddenly snap and shoot someone in the absence of historic precedence to the contrary is amazing. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
