Texas professor claims concealed carry will force her to give A’s or get shot
The Coach's Team ^ | 7/15/16 | Doug Book, Editor

Jessica Smartt Gullion, an assistant professor at the Texas Woman’s University, has decided that allowing students to carry concealed weapons would force the school’s educators to give students higher grades than they deserve.

On August 1st, the state’s campus carry law goes into effect, allowing individuals with a concealed carry license to carry a firearm in all 4 year colleges and universities throughout the state. University of Texas professors Lynn Glass, Lisa Moore and Mia Carter decided to file a lawsuit, asking for an injunction to prevent the law going into effect. They contend that the presence of guns in their classroom will “…chill speech in their ‘courses that touch emotional issues like gay rights and abortion.’” Funny, isn’t it though, that the people who can really be counted on to respond to emotional issues with some degree of violence are inevitably liberals!

In an article published by Newsweek and the Houston Chronicle, Professor Gullion declared that “…a question coming up for many academics is whether they would be forced to give A grades to undeserving students, just so they can avoid being shot.” The professor continues with:

In my five years as a college professor, I have had experiences with a number of emotionally distressed students who resort to intimidation when they receive a lesser grade than what they feel they deserve…

Allowing students to carry weapons to class strips off a layer of safety. Students are often emotional and can be volatile when it comes to their GPAs. Who would want to give a student a low grade and then get shot for it?

So according to the professor, students with a concealed carry license will intimidate instructors into giving them higher marks. Throw in the loss of that valuable “Gun Free Zone” guarantee of safety and...

Only if the insane lefties in her class are carrying. They’re the dangerously volatile ones.

An old cow patty in a pasture has more brains than this so- called “professor.” Don’t send your kids to a school like that if you want them to come home any smarter than when they left.

That’s a childish statement; I wouldn’t expect that from an adult.

Clearly, this person has a loose hold on reality. There are plenty of dead people who thought gun free zones were safe places....but they werent. Its just like the restraining order silliness.

This is a classic case of projection. She thinks that if she had a gun, whe would threaten the instructors to get a better grade, that everyone else would do the same.

Liberalism is a mental disorder. DemocRats should be prohibited from voting or possessing a firearm on the basis that they cannot make rational decisions.

Quite ridiculous. Students already have the option of punching her, but of course they don’t.

She needs to worry only if she’s white and she has #BLM terrorists in her class. CCW laws wouldn’t make a difference, since BLM thugs aren’t law-abiding.

Anyone who goes through the process to get a carry permit:

1. Is more likely to get above average grades anyway:

2. Is not likely at all to shoot a professor over a bad grade.
