WVU faculty and students were each given an opportunity to share their thoughts on House Bill 2519.
"More guns on campus is not going to lead to more violence," said Jackson Wolfe, who's pro-campus carry.
"Having the accessibility to a weapon makes situations escalate very quickly," said Olivia Young, a student against the bill.
The proposed Campus Self Defense Act would allow licensed people to carry a concealed weapon on college campuses throughout the state. |

"Having the accessibility to a weapon makes situations escalate very quickly," said Olivia Young, a student against the bill.
Straw man, and completely without logic.
How does one 'escalate' from the starting point of shooting everybody in sight?
GAH. Ridiculous. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
