They assume that because that’s essentially how campus libs treat conservative speech.

I would agree with the professors, that widespread ccw would have a chilling effect on some campus “discussions”.
The main thing it would chill is the idea that mobs of leftist activists could threaten violence against conservatives. This may be what the professors are really concerned about.

The professors argued that the law could “chill” discussion of controversial topics in class because faculty members and students might fear that someone with a weapon would shoot a student or professor who disagreed with him. Had a conversation with an idiot on a local pier - he said my gun on my hip was really really scary and caused unnecessary terror in folks. After a five minute debate, I finally said if it was so dang scary, we wouldn't be having this conversation - his eyes almost glazed over trying to come up with a response.

Would a court overturn a lawfully enacted statute merely because a group of professors claim that it makes them so worried that they fear to speak freely? So far, the answer is a firm “no.”
They just didn't find the "right" judge. Yet. Liberals practically never give up....

The professors argued that the law could “chill” discussion of controversial topics in class because faculty members and students might fear that someone with a weapon would shoot a student or professor who disagreed with him. Such fear would cause faculty members to avoid discussing potentially dangerous topics. A college professor with a 'U' bike lock has been proven to be more dangerous and more chilling to free speech than the average concealed-carry citizen. This lawsuit represented liberal projection, pure and simple - they wish to chill discussion they disagree with, by violence if necessary.

A liberal professor’s irrational fears do not trump the Constitution.
