I know it's a rhetorical question but If there is nothing to report on why report on it?

Slow News day, no BLM protests, nothing new in politics just business as usual, no terrorist incidents masquerading as random acts of violence, global warming has become blase, no one believes that the Russians have been effected by it. Not only was there nothing to report here, no one even commented on the article. :yawn :yawn :yawn :yawn :yawn

It is good press for all of us. I'll gladly take it. We need more news articles reinforcing in the general public's mind that these are in fact non-issues. It will change long term voting habits as people are more likely remember that the good guys/gals are not the ones to punish. More, more, more!

He probably carries his motorcycle helmet on the back of his bike so he can "put it on" if he's about to be in an accident. :mrgreen:

But there is something to report on. "No issues" is a significant, especially given the anti-campus carry flatulence that has poured out of UT and various other places. We like to complain that the MSM likes to emphasize -- and over emphasize -- the bad things that happen involving guns, we should congratulate them when they report of the positive.

I expect it to continue to be a non-issue and fall off the top of the thought pile before too horribly long.

This kind of shocked me:
“Campus carry is something I opposed in principle but I can also see the reasons in favor,” the political science professor said. “So for those reasons, as long as it’s legal, I participate.”
Might actually be able to have a conversation with this prof...
