The other way around. OC is already dead per Lavender. CC may be but the fat lady hasn't sang yet.

That's typical, trying to sound as if he's being logical. Campus Carry has nothing to do with a shooting at an Elementary school. He just doesn't want it. But then again, I don't think the House bill is worth pushing the way it's hacked.

I know, it's frustrating. I kind of thought with Oklahoma passing OC, it might make it a little easier seeing that the rivers aren't full of blood. But it seems that got "supported" to death. Campus Carry was one I didn't have any idea about. To me the issue is not a big deal and I don't see any real hurdles except, the people that think it means kids with guns running all over campus shooting up RUSH parties. The fanatics seem to always make more noise and get more attention.

I can imagine how frustrating it is for someone that's worked on this stuff for so long to have it amended pretty much taking away the intent. I could not do it.

Just to pass something and have 1 less thing to fight in the future. UTSA will opt out but will have to go through the trouble to post over 100 30.06 signs. I just want to see something pro gun pass.. =(

The problem with that seemingly growing sentiment (based on rebellious comments here too) is that if you are a student and even 1 door is posted you'll have a real hard time convincing a Judge that you were not given effective notice being on campus all the time. Effective notice doesn't mean all doors need to be posted, it means action was taken to make you aware. In my opinion, you can bet that the registration process will include effective notice and they may not even post any signs except at main doors that non-student regularly uses.

I do not think it's a good compromise. You give them that and how much harder will it be to get anything changed in the near future? What you'll have with this "compromise" is relying on the school changing it's mind, which means, it's taking the action to allow carry which is a whole lot different that a law mandating it.
