    | LBTQ+ students at the University of Houston claim they no longer feel safe and can no longer express themselves out of fear relating to the new ‘Open Campus Carry’ law. The law went into effect statewide on August 1.  Formally known as the Senate Bill, which allows students at state universities in Texas who have licenses to carry handguns to bring those guns anywhere on the college campus, with the exception of “exclusion zones.”

    | What a crock.  This is nothing more than a bunch of flaming liberals sounding off. 
 They have a greater chance of being shot by a policeman or getting killed crossing the street than by being shot by someone licensed to carry a firearm.
 
 Every time there is loosening of the concealed carry law, the kooks predicting doom and gloom come out of the woodwork.  It hasn't happened anywhere else, and it won't happen in Texas.

                      | 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]. |  |  |
