It's just amazing how many otherwise educated, professional people don't seem to realize this. They still think a 30.06 sign is going to stop criminals, like the convenience store owner who posted a 30.06 because he didn't want to get robbed. I mean, jeez, would a "no guns" sign have stopped Charles Whitman?Jazz99 wrote:Furthermore, he stated that he didn't understand why people should carry on a college campus. Shocked, I exclaimed that while teaching on campus, it is the most vulnerable time of my day. I brought up the issue that gun free zones don't stop criminals, but they lead to helpless victims. He paused, and then said, "I've never thought of it before like that. You make a valid point. I now understand why campus carry is necessary."

Re: University of Texas dean quits school for job in Pennsylvania because of Lone Star state’s new policy allowing guns
A lot of these academic types are geeky nerds who know little of the real world outside of their offices, who have never been near a gun in their lives and know utterly nothing about them. They are in the ranks of the clueless, like the store owner who posted a 30.06 sign so he wouldn't get robbed. Of course, the MDA types swarm around these people like sharks smelling blood.Abraham wrote:I guess not a single anti-gun person has heard of students from a wide variety of schools being shot to death by madmen.
Better to be disarmed than a have a fighting chance of survival?
What wrong with these academic types?

Frustrating to see how the media slants the language to portray an inaccurate picture of what's going on: "....new policy allowing guns on campus." Nothing about license holders, carrying into buildings, etc. Just "allowing guns on campus."
