"The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education have their agenda ready for lawmakers." ...
"Although there will be bills to allow guns on school campuses this legislative session, the regents don’t support them. Current policy allows the presidents of the system’s 25 institutions to allow weapons on an individual basis."
"'Other than that, there's really no scenario where weapons on our college campuses do anything other than promote a more dangerous environment for our students, our faculty, our staff and our visitors,' Johnson said." ... |

Maybe its time those "paying the bills" took a long hard look at the administration of these schools. The world is an increasingly dangerous place and no one can predict, let alone insure, their little corner of it is safe from terrorists. One thing certain, advertising yours is a "gun free zone" isn't going to deter the homicidal/suicidal zealots ! Rather the opposite.
I wonder how many of these "administrators" would be so hoplophobic if america applied the muslim "eye for an eye" logic to the loss of their children ? |

"[T]here's really no scenario where weapons on our college campuses do anything other than promote a more dangerous environment for our students, our faculty, our staff and our visitors," Johnson said.
Except for one thing: There is NO evidence that supports that contention, ANYWHERE. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
