Guerra said he thinks a lesson on self-defense should be offered in a journalism class.
"I definitely do feel journalism majors should take a course that just warns of the hazards and tells them what to do in these situations so that they should be better equipped so that a situation like this comes up," he said.
"And I think that if I was a reporter I would make it my point to help the safety and help educate against gun abuse in that way. Typically, guns don't kill people, people kill people, and that is true. The gun simply facilitates the act. My opinion on this is it's not so much a gun issue it's a cultural issue," he continued. |

The professor said, "I know for me it would not change my mind, she said."
My guess? The professor has a CCW. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
