At least in terms of the campus policy.

This is laughable that they can’t see that the campus didn’t allow guns in the 1st place, so it’s irrelevent.

They’re RIGHT - the campus policy DIDN’T work in this case. The policy was “no guns”.

The nutcase got a gun off campus and brought it in without ever getting caught. Maybe if they want to ban student guns there, they should make security check over every entrant into the campus. That’s the only way it might work against a nut like this.

(Personally, I am for campus bans on undergrad student guns generally, because I think stupid accidents from immature students are far more likely than a wacko acting out.)

Oh really? I can’t seem to recall any of the accidental campus shootings you seem so fearful of. Care to state your statistical basis for this? Or when you say you “think” so, are you really meaning you “feel” so?
The 2nd Ammendment’s protections apply to all of us. Not just to those whom you deem worthy.

Can you provide a single example, or are you just speaking based on your personal feelings? I can give a counter example: You can carry on Utah U -- 44,000 students -- if you have a permit. There has been no increase in gun accidents etc. No "kids gone wild with guns." You know what there also hasn't been any of? Mass shootings.
