That sounds like your average "law-abiding citizen" to me.

...and well trained people should have access to weapons in those type of situations

And who defines what "well trained" means? The D@mocrats? The Brady's? We've already gone WAY too far that direction here in New Mexico - courtesy of the D@mocrats...

I see no problem with well certified citizens carrying weapons in public, but I don’t think every hot headed 18 year old on campus should be packing heat as some posters have advocated.

I tell you what - I don't have time to read through thousands of posts here, but if you can provide credible examples of 'posters advocating every hot headed 18 year old on campus packing heat,' I would be happy to address the issue. In fact, it's a non-issue...

As a college student, I would feel a lot more secure with a concealed-carry, but the idea of students having concealed-carry is only good until the first weekend after they get their gun rolls around- I’m guessing about 1/2 of campus gets smashed thursday-saturday nights every single weekend, every holiday, day off, or any other imaginable excuse for partying. Drunk college students with guns is NOT a good idea, and nobody ever really gets arrested for underage drinking, so trying to restrict it with background checks wouldn’t work too well.

Take for example, hot headed posters that are driven by emotion instead of practicality
