Texas seems to believe the answer to crime and gun violence is more guns on the street.
I recently read an article about how Texas is in the process of passing a bill for it to be legal for students to carry concealed weapons with them on college campuses to “protect themselves.”
This bill would only apply to public universities. Private universities would be able to enforce their own rules.

| A lot of students, faculty and visitors on the UT Austin campus on August first 1966 would probably disagree with this opinion. Its was from these ranks armed individuals took Charles Whitman under fire preventing his having a "turkey shoot" until police could respond. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
