:iagree: Sometimes the label of "hero" bothers me. I don't know if she is a "hero" or not, but I admire her bravery and fortitude.

Actually, it seems that when our legislators think about hospital carry the first thing they think of is "drugged-up patients shooting up the ER," since they want to exclude hospitals from campus carry. They don't seem to much care about healthcare providers defending themselves.
I had not thought about drugged up patients.

This whole issue has me irritated beyond belief. All of the lies, misstatements, omissions and faulty information that the media disseminates routinely hit home much harder when the issue affects you personally and you know what's being "reported" is untrue.
I understand your concern, but I don't think that it's intentional. If you think about "hospital carry" the first thing that probably comes to mind is "doctor", even though doctors are probably in the minority in the total number of people working in a hospital.

BTW, your statement "What Are We. Chopped Liver?" sounds like a good title for an editorial or letter to the editor.

Re: Opponents of Gun-Free Zones at Universities Find Hero

This lady is a very good spokesperson for concealed carry, and not just on campus. She is very articulate and has a good head on her shoulders. :thumbs2:
