Classes are now underway on state university campuses in Texas, where a new law went into effect last month allowing anyone with a concealed weapon license to bring a handgun on to campus, as long as it remains concealed. At the University of Houston, many students, like Ali Rajwani, express little concern. “I am pretty indifferent about it,” Rajwani said. “It is not like I think ‘Oh, God, I am going to be shot on campus!’ I don’t feel that in any way. I don’t really feel any change at all.” |

| Reactions are mixed; libs, oh my God, those working on their degrees will get to see that licensed gun carriers are actually decent responsible citizens. Conservatives; What's the big deal? I carry as it is preventive for many types of shooting making getting a degree safer for all. |

The 'controversy' is STOOPID.
This law will not do what the idiots insist it will. People intent upon shooting masses of innocents did so without regard to any campus bans.
So, how would this aggravate that situation?
Irrefutable answer: It won't. At least, a certain amount of deterrence will occur and at best, if an active shooter incident happens, there now will be the possibility of a licensed carrier taking him out.
But don't count on brainwashed snowflakes to grasp the logic. After all, that's what all the brainwashing is about. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
