It makes no sense to allow college students, most of whom do not qualify as adults, despite what the law has decided, to carry guns into a school.
And why should we trust school authorities with weapons? Most of them are liberal and probably support gun control, as in, the average citizen should not have one. More to the point, that profession is no more exempt from outrageous behavior than any other.
Civil society has been in a meltdown for the last 40+ years and we're living with the horrific results in all areas.
Yes, we are end days, as I see it (no religious connotations). My father (WWII combat vet) told me the same things long ago. But even he didn't forsee the total distruction of integrity, honor, self-responsibility, grace, and self-determination. I am sad for my children and grand-children.
I only hope I am dead before I see the envitable happen to this wonderfully conceived nation.
I need a drink or two...

This was an engineering school. Engineering and the hard sciences (the ones without “science” in the name, typically) are *not* refuges for Liberals.
Every morning, high school students drive by 10s if not hundreds of other students meandering their way into buildings that have just opened. Those high school students are driving SUVs.
Imagine two hundred students in a breezeway in the slight rain (under the roof) waiting for the doors to open, and a guy in a large 4-wheel drive SUV deciding to run them over.
You could well end up with more people dead than at Tech.
It’s not the weapons, it’s the people who use them. We certainly shouldn’t change laws for the worse based on the abberent “worst shooting ever”.
