Do you think gun owners with concealed carry permits should not be allowed to have firearms on the grounds of Texas colleges and universities?
Yes 41.7 No 55 Not sure 3.3
This poll needs to be freeped.
No, that poll does not need to be “FReeped.”
Concealed carry is a local decision, and neither A&M nor the state of Texas needs outsiders’ opinions to make choices that are right for us.
But thanks for your concern.
Gig ‘Em!

I say it’s a great idea... and I have real skin in the game. My son is a fish in the Corps... in fact I am posting from a hotel room in College Station after having returned from midnight yell.
As a part of my son’s responsibilities, he provides an escort to any student who requests one. This is one of the things of which I am most proud. Were he allowed to carry a weapon during “guard duty”, he would be that much more of a deterrent to someone with bad intent.

Our daughter graduated from TAMU in 2008. She told us that the only time they would see the campus police was on Sunday morning when the students went to church crossing the main drag and directing traffic at the huge tent when the Aggie tee shirt sale was happening. Most of those kids grew up on farms and know how to handle weapons very well.
