Should everyone, everywhere have a gun? No, but it's dumb to say that no one no where should have a gun because guess what? Someone's gonna have a gun. But don't let your ephemeral emotions dictate policy when it comes to gun laws. Of course, when talking about allowing guns on Texas campuses (by licensed gun owners), you've got to get someone with a VT shirt to plead the case.
“Then I learned pretty fast that wouldn’t solve anything,” said Woods, who is now a graduate student at UT. “The idea that somebody could stop a school shooting with a gun is impossible. It’s reactive, not preventative.”
Impossible? Well, no. What's impossible is to think that a law is going to keep all guns off your campus. Say, wasn't VT a gun free zone, too? What happened?!? Did he break the law when he brought that gun onto campus? Oh yeah, he killed 32 people, too. BUT IT WAS A GUN FREE ZONE?!? What happened?
