Sociology professor Jennifer Lynn Glass, creative writing professor Lisa Moore, and English professor Mia Carter have filed a lawsuit against the Texas attorney general, the university president, and the university's board of regents, arguing that the new concealed carry laws will stifle discussion and risk putting students in danger. Their suit also argues that the new law is not protected by the Second Amendment, and violates the equal protection clause, saying the Constitution protects a "well regulated militia" and that the current concealed carry requirements do not impose "proper discipline and training." |

Sure. Let 'em. But specify that a sign will be placed on the entrance to the building containing the following:
"WARNING: GUN-FREE ZONES INSIDE"
And specify that each classroom so designated display the sign, "GUN-FREE ZONE".
Let's see how enthusiastically they go for THAT! |

| If the ****wish to abrogate their students' "inalienable right of self-defense", they must assume that duty themselves and agree to make themselves morally, legally and financially responsible for the consequences - direct and consequential - ensuing from their unconstitutional demands. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
