There are lots of folks going to college who are way older than the early 20s. Some of us took a decade to get a four year degree. Banning on college campuses because most of the students are young would be blatant age discrimination, IMO.

I think if we are willing to give driver licenses to someone so they can pilot a 3000 pound bullet traveling at 83 feet per second, they should be responsible enough to tote if they meet the other qualifications.

Horseplay is strictly forbidden in the Army. (referred to as "grab a**)

Yes, being armed is a an adult responsibility and yes, saying so makes me sound ...old and crabby.

That's probably correct too, but I'm still right.

Horseplay is horses and children.

Agreed. I got my BA when I was 42 and my MBA when I was 47. I saw lots of students in class that made me look young.

Horse play is "FOR" horses and children.

Also, proofreading is for adults - mea culpa!

I didn't go to college on Daddy's money either. After having worked several years, my first wife (bless her heart) and I both worked to put me through - every last cent of it.

As I said, I agree in principle with CHL carry on campus and have urged both my senator and representative to support the measure. It's not the youthful looks that cause my reservation and it's not the individual maturity level. It is the group maturity level that causes my concern. Of well, we'll see what we see.

Horse play and and guns definitely do not go together. Besides, I quit playing with horses a long time ago.

In the Navy, also, and yes, we called it that, too.

Never partake in a farting match. Someone will lose.

Might not be a good idea to bring a match to a farting match either....

OK guys, bring it back on the topic of gun retention, not gas expulsion. Thanks!

Lesson learned.

But doesn't everybody know this game has been changed to "Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock?"
