Sociology professor Jennifer Lynn Glass, creative writing professor Lisa Moore, and English professor Mia Carter have filed a lawsuit against the Texas attorney general, the university president, and the university's board of regents, arguing that the new concealed carry laws will stifle discussion and risk putting students in danger. Their suit also argues that the new law is not protected by the Second Amendment, and violates the equal protection clause, saying the Constitution protects a "well regulated militia" and that the current concealed carry requirements do not impose "proper discipline and training." |

Sure. Let 'em. But specify that a sign will be placed on the entrance to the building containing the following:
"WARNING: GUN-FREE ZONES INSIDE"
And specify that each classroom so designated display the sign, "GUN-FREE ZONE".
Let's see how enthusiastically they go for THAT! |

| If the ****wish to abrogate their students' "inalienable right of self-defense", they must assume that duty themselves and agree to make themselves morally, legally and financially responsible for the consequences - direct and consequential - ensuing from their unconstitutional demands. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
