HB 13-1226: Ban of CONCEALED HANDGUN ON CAMPUS Thread

[Great-Kazoo]

It's official, we're living in the Twilight Zone.

We're doomed.

Like i posted elsewhere. i have 125lbs of feathers, 25lbs of tar 1 rag mop and 50 replacement mop heads, on order. Unacceptable is beyond description.

Auto. It will allow me to ccw on campus just not in buildings. Apparently I lose my decision making skills upon entering a building.

[Flatline]

The fact that the UCCS thing has been up since 2006 is even more troubling.

Their new motto should be - "UCCS: Advising women to piss themselves to avoid rape for the last 7 years."

Some "Intensive self-defense" class that RAD program is, huh? Don't you all run out and signup your wives and daughters for this class at the same time...there's plenty of room for everyone.

Meh, it is primarily designed for the women living in the dorms, and rape is a huge problem for colleges. If it makes the difference then I would advocate trying anything that might work.

Don't get me wrong, the CU system is crazy in MANY ways, I just don't see this as one of them.

This bill infuriates me the most. I'm a 30 year old student, army veteran and guys and gals like me going back to school get labeled "binge drinking college kids" who shouldn't have guns by democrats. I have a wife I want to go home to every day, I don't want to worry about being in some BS "gun free zone" where some nut case might come and shoot at us because liberals think feel good gun free zone signs stop anything.

I will be writing a letter to my school president on this issue.

Now if our campus security was beefed up and was sporting AR15's that'd be just peachy to me, I'd feel just like at home

I'm in the same boat as you.

Been there done that. I'll just say concealed means concealed.

Ok, so I might be incredibly wrong and fucked up on this but the way this bill works is by declaring college as public education correct?
According to federal law, public education must be funded federally and would evoke all the other programs such as "no child left behind" as well as free and equal access. Wouldn't this law force the government to pay for college tuition, college professors losing their chance of tenure as well as a whole bunch of other legal clusterfuck such as testing and applications to enter the colleges?

If so, this could be en economic clusterfuck and a huge impact on the state budget.

Now this is an interesting point...

I'll say this- if/when I decide to go back to school and I'm being forcefully disarmed (I consider threat of loss of life/liberty/property by prosecution to be forceful) while I attend class and I become the "victim" (says nothing of carrying a knife, yet) of a crime, believe me I'm going to sue the everloving shit out of both the school for not being able to protect me while I'm not able to do so myself, and then the state, for making such a fucked up law. That, my friends, is how I'll be able to afford my 100 acre ranch near the Tetons.

LOL... Thanks, griebel303.

Two thumbs up to Chris Holbert, here is his reply:

I'll vote "No" on any/all gun control legislation.

The Second Amendment exists to protect us from tyranny and I will not compromise on that issue.
