A bill that would let colleges keep concealed handguns off campus brought self defense advocates and frustrated students alike to the Capitol on Thursday.
Both sides packed into a small committee room to testify about the possible repeal of a law set to go into effect July 1.
Under the proposed Senate legislation supported by several moderate Republicans and Democrats, certain public places would be permanently exempt from the law that would force them to permit concealed handguns. |

Laws that restrict fundamental rights cannot be based upon "studies", they must be based upon EVIDENCE, of which there is none, zip, zero, nada. None of the eight states that have full campus carry enacted into law have had any of the paranoid prognostications of opponents materialze.
NONE.
You can't restrict my rights just because you want to. You can't restrict them because of how you "feel". You can't restrict them because leftist academics project theoretical results unsupported by evidence.
YOU. CAN'T. DO. THAT. |

TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
