Texas senators have voted to allow concealed handgun license holders to carry their weapons into public college classrooms.
Great news.
HOORAH, you better believe I’ll be packing when I am in a classroom from now on.
Thank you Texas legislature. I’ve sent several emails to my reps and the sponsors of this bill, I am very happy.
Libturds: “now even more gun violence and suicides.” Women and minorities hit hardest.
I have a question: doesn’t this also have to be passed by the House and signed by the governor before it becomes law?

What became of the open carry or was it open carry option for CHL holders if they wanted to or not ?
Was or is that still being considered in TX ?
God Bless Texas!
I don’t suppose they are allowed to shoot liberal edumacators when the latter are clearly lying...?
I hope this actually means campus wide and not just "classrooms".
(((ping))) for later.
I wonder if the profs will have a hard time giving bad grads to students who are packin’. I’m just saying....
Haven’t been able to find any details yet, still searching. I want to know the date this goes into effect.
I'm certain that is correct, but I think the Texas House has passed similar legislation already, so the support is probably there for passage. I think the "iffy" point is whether the Texgov will sign or veto.
Yes, but "classroom" is so much more scary to a hoplophobe, so naturally that's the choice for the article, since the media want to turn the whole country into nancy-pants hoplophobes, just like they are.
No one but the dead guy should ever know your carrying concealed.... And then its a moot point if ever there was.
A little more detail here:

Maybe while you are discussing the C you got on your physics exam let the prof see the bulge. Don’t be to obvious. Maybe have the odor of gun oil in the air.....
You think Gov Goodhair - the coyote shootin' jogger who now has a pistol named after him - will veto this?

AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Senators have voted to allow concealed handgun license holders to carry their weapons into public college classrooms.
Monday’s vote is a major push on an issue that had stalled in the Senate and House despite overwhelming numbers of lawmakers in support in the Republican-dominated Legislature.
Sen. Jeff Wentworth, R-San Antonio, had been unable to muster the votes he needed under Senate rules to pass the issue as its own bill. After several failed attempts, Monday’s vote tacked the measure onto a universities spending bill.
Supporters call it a critical self-defense measure and gun rights issue. Opponents worry concealed handguns could lead to more campus violence and suicide.
The measure has met stiff resistance from higher education officials, notably from within the University of Texas system.
Then your not good at concealed carry .....
Stay safe....
