Students and faculty within the university system are divided. The new law law has generated protests, the retirement of a Texas A&M professor and threats of punishments against educators who try to ban firearms from their classrooms.
But despite what pro-gun supporters term hysteria about a law that already stands in several states, the campus carry law is only going to apply to a small portion of the student population in Texas. It’s likely to keep parents, faculty and students on edge, but experts say the campus carry law could turn out to be a non-event, at least if history provides any guidance. |

| They are on edge cause liberal myths have their heads on the chopping block. Soon, students will be accustomed to their classmates taking responsibility for self defense and being armed. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
