I hope they don't have to deal with too much crap. One of the profs in my dept told me flat out that if he sees a gun or even a bulge that he thinks is a gun, then he's going to call the police every time. He is from Baltimore originally. Most of our Profs are not Texans, but transplants from other parts of the country (and the world).
I have made the decision to deliberately not discuss "gun issues" with my coworkers. It just makes them uncomfortable and it makes everything about our working relationships difficult. I hate that it's that way. But I don't know what else to do.
I think the first time he calls the police, and the dispatcher tells him that there is no law being broken, and any subsequent calls would result in him being charged with abuse of the 911 system, he may change his tune. Secondly, I always try and see if I can spot CC on anyone, and have only seen a few, I doubt that he is trained well enough, to spot anything. Besides, the law does not prohibit the carrying of "bulges" and printing is also not illegal. Does he know that their are still flights to Baltimore leaving everyday?
