I think YOUR heart is in the right place geister, but I think some training should be required, just like we do for CHL's. These days, many people grow up without proper exposure to guns. Without some basic safety training, I think there would be accidents.Geister wrote:I have a better idea, TheRising. How about I carry a concealed firearm on campus WITHOUT having to ask for the school's permission? Especially since it's my inalienable Right. I shouldn't need to ask the school administration at all; it's none of their business. In fact, I'd prefer it if they didn't know that I carry at all.
As long as it's a public school supported by tax dollars they should have no say in the matter.
Your heart is in the right place but we need LESS gun control, not more. Gun control is ineffective.
Actually, I know this to be true from my own very stupid experience as a young, albeit very lucky, fool (which I posted in another thread).
I'm a big fan of training. I think it is more necessary in the present day than it was in times past for the reason I cited above.
Like I said, your heart is in the right place. But we shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
To me, If a university wanted to impose a comprehensive training requirement (both safety AND legal training) upon completion of which it would allow student and faculty CHL's to carry, I'd say, "Good deal."
