"You’re right about the nature of the campi being different, but I think sometimes the whole nature of the place has to be considered."

What's different is only the fact that deamonization of gun ownership has advanced, because of the efforts of the bliss ninnies. The nature of the students has not changed.

"The campus has a right to disallow someone to bring in a gun, just as a house owner or restaurant owner has a right to disallow smoking in their property"

No. It's a dorm, so folks live there and it's a govm't dorm, so the Constitution applies. The right to self defense still exists on govm't property. "As for all this defensiveness about college KIDS (and I emphasize that term), forget it. We were all that age and most of us, including me, were IN college. Spare me the “discrimination” nonsense; we were ALL of that “group”. I have an inkling of what it was like, and that was a while ago. Worse now, and it’s clear if you even watch the news."

The dorm myself and others had guns in was known as the zoo and alcohol was consumed there on many occasions. Your deamonization of college students is as repulsive as the deamoniziton of blacks was when they were disarmed under the law. Bigotted catch all demeaning of blacks was used to disarm them with the first gun control laws, which were later extended to whites that weren't of the privileged political class.

You are absolutely ridiculous.

As I said, spare me the crapola about “discrimination” and comparing it to racism.

It’s total BS, because EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO REACHED 18 - has been in that “group”!!! Give me a break, BLACKS??? Get off it. What an absolutely absurd, stupid comparison.

I’ve experienced being in college and those were my impressions, as well as that it’s even worse now. Too bad. I belonged to that all-too-changing “group” at 1 time so don’t tell me I don’t know anything about it, or that I can’t say anything even against my own generation.

How’s your opinion on Moslems? Are you 1 of the very few here so good as to never malign them, or call for people casting suspicious eyes on Arab-type people on planes?

Go crawl back in a hole, please. At least learn to have a reasonable discussion rather than “firing off half-cocked”.
