A professor at Idaho State University shot himself in the foot on Tuesday while on the university's campus, according to television station KIDK.
Police told the TV station the professor had a permit to carry a concealed weapon. Under a law signed in March by Idaho Gov. Butch Otter (R), the presence of concealed weapons on college campuses is allowed.

Probably charges coming soon. Also, a law does not make it possible to shoot ones self in the foot. A lack of brain cells does that.

possibly fired and he gets a nice medical bill.
All because dumb ass apparently couldn't be bothered to use a pocket holster for the gun or he was handling the gun.
