I remember well my first solo shift as a police officer. I was sitting in my patrol vehicle, enveloped in excitement and equipment. Sig Sauer P220 sidearm, Remington 870 shotgun, Taser, OC pepper spray, and of course, the AR-15 (M-4).
Police officers know each piece of equipment intimately through years of training. Each piece of equipment secured in its proper place. Each piece of equipment, and its use, governed by myriad laws and regulations. Each piece of equipment designed to protect us and the community. Some of the equipment is designed to take a life, if necessary. |

| Since there is no evidence from any state that allows campus carry that these assertions are valid, why do these dimwits keep writing such articles? |

| How did "professors" become "at risk" individuals ? Presumably the state of FL is going to perform its "due diligence" before issuing a CCW to anyone - student or professor . In that regard the "playing field is level" ! So "where's the beef" ? From the article cited it seems one police officer is expressing his personal concern over increased situational training and officer responsibility for determining who's wearing the "white hats" in a fluid situation. But his officer also ignores the reality if he's deep in the s**t it may well be a CCW that comes to his aid. Sadly, we're seeing this all too frequently of late ! |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
