Classes are now underway on state university campuses in Texas, where a new law went into effect last month allowing anyone with a concealed weapon license to bring a handgun on to campus, as long as it remains concealed. At the University of Houston, many students, like Ali Rajwani, express little concern. “I am pretty indifferent about it,” Rajwani said. “It is not like I think ‘Oh, God, I am going to be shot on campus!’ I don’t feel that in any way. I don’t really feel any change at all.” |

Reactions are mixed; libs, oh my God, those working on their degrees will get to see that licensed gun carriers are actually decent responsible citizens. Conservatives; What's the big deal? I carry as it is preventive for many types of shooting making getting a degree safer for all. |

The 'controversy' is STOOPID.
This law will not do what the idiots insist it will. People intent upon shooting masses of innocents did so without regard to any campus bans.
So, how would this aggravate that situation?
Irrefutable answer: It won't. At least, a certain amount of deterrence will occur and at best, if an active shooter incident happens, there now will be the possibility of a licensed carrier taking him out.
But don't count on brainwashed snowflakes to grasp the logic. After all, that's what all the brainwashing is about. |

QUOTES
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"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.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 For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in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 If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal.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) |
