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 |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
