Colorado professor starts petition to ban concealed carry after Aurora shooting
Campus Reform ^

Posted on 07/23/2012 3:50:57 PM PDT by oliverdarcy

A professor in the Aurora area has started a petition to repeal Colorado’s Concealed Carry Act, in light of the recent mass-shooting that took place last week.

Professor Chad Kautzer launched the online petition at Change.org in an effort to help “protect the health and safety of University of Colorado employees and students.”

Earlier this year, the Colorado Supreme Court overturned CUD’s ban on concealed weapons, ruling that Colorado’s Concealed Carry Act applied to college campuses. Now students who meet the state’s qualifications to carry a concealed weapon can do so on campus.

“University campuses are places of work and study,” reads the petition. “The intentional introduction of more firearms in this environment only increases the chance of deadly violence.”

Professor Kautzer, who is also the director of the school’s “social justice minor,” lists the “recent mass shooting by CU Denver student James Holmes” as a reason to prohibit concealed firearms.

That worked so well at VT where 30 people were killed.

Another one who looks in the wrong of the telescope. Kautzer is a unknowing conspirator with those looking for gun free victim zones to carry out their acts.

If the bad guys can smuggle in tons of drugs, they can smuggle in tons of guns, and, it won’t be the good citizens getting them.

Rats...you beat me to it!!! All I had to read was “Social Justice” and I could assuredly predict what this “Professor” would spout.
Hey, Prof, do you know what percentage of felony shootings are perpetrated by LEGALLY licensed gun owners? Was the Aurora shooter licensed? How about the weekly shooters in Chicago, Philadelphia, etc etc etc?
The sad irony is, while Professor Nonsense, spews his idiocy, there are people out there, legally carrying, who will step up if (God forbid) needed to save this guy’s worthless life.

Pardon me Professor, but I don't think Mr. Holmes had any intention to conceal his weapons. Perhaps thou doest bark up the wrong tree?

So a nut job who did not have a CCW, who did not hide his weapons and perped his crime in a place that prohibits all weapons would be stopped by banning CCW?

Only a marxist educator on the public dole could come up with that.

I filled out their application. They asked this question, among others:

“Do you have any questions or ideas you think Occupy Denver should look into?”

My answer: “Investigate why you are all bat shit crazy.”

May as well have a little fun with them.

That would be the website of the jackass in question. Like most left-wingers he’s pretty short on logic, in spite of being a professor.
