WOULD BEING ALLOWED TO CARRY CONCEALED GUNS ON CAMPUS MAKE THEM SAFER?

[+] serious ballot by cranky
ACTIVE Apr 23,2007 - Sat Jan 16, 10

Asked by Charlie Rose his thoughts on the tragedy at Virginia Tech, Tom DeLay offered a jaw-dropping solution to avoiding future campus carnage: allow students to bring concealed weapons to class with them. Yep, the answer to gun violence is... more guns! For DeLay and his fellow gun lovers, the Second Amendment guarantees not only a well-regulated militia, but a well-armed student body. It brings a whole new dimension to school supplies. Ruler? Check. Protractor? Check? Glock 9? Check. Target practice will be a freshman prerequisite. It's Mutually Assured Destruction Goes to College. Animal House meets Death Wish. Shootout at the O.K. Dorm. Do we really want our institutions of higher learning to become ivy-covered versions of the Wild West? Haven't DeLay and company ever watched Deadwood? (Huffington Post)

Much as I love my guns, that sounds like a reallllllly bad idea.

I think the more weapons around, the greater chances of fatalities on a daily basis.

um, isn't SCHOOL supposed to be about studying and learning and stuff?

If one of those 32 had had a firearm and the will to defend himself, things might have been different. What if one of the first people that the killer came across were armed? It might have stopped there instead of being a bunch of sheep cowering down and waiting to be slaughtered. Guns were not allowed on campus but gun control never helps the innocent, does it?

^It seems to help a great deal in nations where gun control is universal.
