The Senate Judiciary Committee endorsed by a voice vote the proposal requiring public colleges and universities to allow faculty and staff to carry concealed handguns on campus if they have a license from the state. A 2013 law leaves the decision up to the schools, but no campus has opted to do so. The proposal now heads to the majority-Republican Senate. |

It's still got the stupid "proximity" and "child care facility" prohibitions.
There is no evidence, much less logic, to support these restrictions - only blind emotion. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
