"1st, Don’t ever call me a liberal."

I didn't call you a liberal. Work on your reading skills. I said you sprout the standard emotional lines of a typical gun grabber.

"2nd, this kind of no-weapons zone is standard procedure at many government establishments AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN (no “Founders would’ve disapproved” - they wouldn’t; they had sense and respect)."

Ridiculous! They weren't bothered by folks that chose to defend themselves and certainly repected them. They knew very well that bad guys exist and intend to do people harm.

"You can’t be serious that with all the rioting over stupid basketball games (lose OR win!) that have commonly occurred within the last 5 years on/near college campi that these “students” can be trusted."

Pure BS! Another standard wild west line from the grabber crowd. I have no respect for your emotional "thoughts" on the matter, nor your insistence on rendering folks defenseless agaist scumbags.

You’re ridiculous.

If you READ my post, perhaps you’d notice that I even said faculty, et al (RESPONSIBLE mature adults) should be allowed to carry.

The truth is - it’s not emotional, it’s observation and “life’s school” - college kids are largely irresponsible selfish immature self-absorbed hedonists. It’s alot worse than 50 years ago.

As for your “ridiculous” - how? It’s the TRUTH that courts and government building AND DEFENSE PLANTS, etc, have NO-WEAPONS rules, for damn good reason.

For the record, I am 1 who thinks noone should have to have any kind of license to carry in general public. I don’t think there should be any CCW - why conceal? I prefer people let it hang out if they want. Then indeed, there’d be even less carnage because the crooks could SEE 1st thing people had guns and would be scared to ask. No guessing.

That’s me. I believe in total freedom with some logical, LOW-LEVEL exceptions. We’re not talking state-wide bans, here. Tiny areas.
