The House of Delegates passed a bill late Wednesday night that would require colleges to allow students with a concealed carry permit to bring guns on campus. The vote came after many critics of the bill thought it had died earlier in the day.
House Bill 2519, known as The Campus Self-Defense Act, passed, 59-41, after hours of heated debate and proposed amendments.
“We heard the sky was going to fall with constitutional carry, and tonight we’ve heard a lot about the same arguments with campus carry,” said Del. Eric Householder, R-Berkeley. “Just remember, ladies and gentlemen: Take your blinders off. When we hear the phrase ‘shall not be infringed,’ it’s a very important right.” |

| Danielle Walker has serious issues with logic and critical thinking. Her 'rebuttal' argument is pitifully juvenile. The point is that if she'd had a gun, she wouldn't have BEEN a rape victim to begin with, and the bit about her being so stressed that she'd commit suicide is inane. *knock-knock* Danielle? HELLO? Anybody home? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
