Today UT students and faculty went back to school and immediately went back to protesting campus carry. New beginning this school year, carrying concealed weapons on campus is now allowed by state law…
But many at UT are hoping to change that. They lost in the legislature and they lost in the courts, but now opponents of campus carry at UT Austin are focusing on overturning the law or at least being able to opt out.
Just by looking at the size of the crowds that the opponents of campus carry still draw, they just might have the numbers to gun down this legislation. They bristle and cheer “Texas fight!” indicating their will to challenge the new law. |

| Just point out to the precious snowflakes that their classrooms have never ever been gun free zones. Without metal detectors at every entrance, without TSA level body scans, there has never been anything to keep a student or anyone else from carrying a concealed weapon anywhere on campus. Their gun free zone signs never have been worth more than the paper they were printed on. |

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| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.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 For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in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 If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal.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