Guns on campus? Expect tragedy (CNN today)

[Wayfaerer320]

Just finished reading this article - anyone else see this?

Thoughts?

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like the author contradicts his entire argument by the last paragraph:

"I have a hard enough time with students who bring their cell phones to their classes. If they bring guns, they better check them at the door, or I may be forced to arm myself and try to outdraw them when I see one of them reaching for his holster."

I can save you all some time and brief you on the beginning of this article:

Amitai Etzioni is a sociologist and professor of international relations at George Washington University and the author of several books, including "Security First" and "New Common Ground." He was a senior adviser to the Carter administration and has taught at Columbia and Harvard universities and the University of California, Berkeley.

emphasis mine.

I'd love to read it, but all my Bullshit Bingo cards are full. I'll have to order some more.

Anyone who worked for Carter has to be a nutjob liberal.

Book called "Security first" written by anti-gun sociology professor? Jeez! I bet "The couple's guide to boosting marriage libido", written by The Pope, will be more educational.

that article was maddening, complete and utter bs completely one sided as was expected, hes a moron.

EXPECT tragedy, eh? Ooops. Too late.

I CCW'd on campus already. 20 years ago. Nothing happened.

The drafters of these bills seem to have an image of peaceful students, bent over their books, suddenly attacked by gunslingers who materialize from nowhere. They ignore that students can and do shoot people on campus.

LOL, I thought progressive-libs had the illusion that everyone is already peacy lovey because they think that all you need is to be nice and spead peacy lovey vibes. It was the peacy lovey that kept Cho in class as long as he was.

Has there been any expected tragedy at the couple US college campus's that already allow carry?

[Liberifle]

That'd be a no.
