"Law enforcement arrived at Florida State University’s packed library within three minutes of receiving calls that a man with a gun had opened fire."
"But some gun rights advocates think that wasn’t soon enough."
"The shooting, which left three people injured before police killed the assailant, has become the go-to anecdote for proponents who want to change state law and allow people with concealed weapon permits to bring their guns on college campuses. They argue it’s a safety issue for students at FSU and beyond." ... |

The FSU Student Govt's position is unsupportable.
Contrary to their assertion, the lack of the anticipated epidemic of violence is prima facie evidence that campus CCW works as advertised.
I say that because if I challenge them to identify ONE prognostication that has actually occurred on campuses in the seven states that allow for lawful CCW at colleges, they will not be able to cite a single incident.
Not ONE.
Because there aren't any.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
