When I was in college at the University of Iowa in 1991, there was a mass shooting. A graduate student, upset that he had not received a coveted honor, walked into a university building and shot and killed the three professors on his dissertation committee. He also killed his fellow student, the one who had been selected for the honor. |

Schools must not teach this kind of information, because it's just too dangerous in the hands of college students. |

No doubt it was illegal to possess a gun on the University of Iowa in 1991. That didn't stop the malcontent student from killing five people.
Why can't these liberals see that laws don't stop sickos, terrorists and malcontents?
The eight or so states that allow guns on campus have had zero problems. If there were any incidents, the liberal press would be all over it.
The stupidity of the people predicting that otherwise law abiding and licensed to conceal carry persons will suddenly snap and shoot someone in the absence of historic precedence to the contrary is amazing. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. — Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States; With a Preliminary Review of the Constitutional History of the Colonies and States before the Adoption of the Constitution [Boston, 1833]. |
