How are the Republicans in the Wisconsin State Legislature going to address campus gun violence?
More effing GUNS obviously. Meet "campus carry"
Two Republican state legislators have introduced a bill that would allow concealed carry gun owners to bring weapons into public university and college buildings in Wisconsin.

1. I don't remember recent gun violence by students in Wisconsin colleges
Is this a plan to get some? Some insane PR campaign.
Might I suggest mandatory open carry in all state government buildings. Do unto yourself before you do unto children. |

3. Hasn't been any mass shootings at any Wisconsin campus...

2. @wisgop pushes for guns on UW campuses, but not in legislative chambers.
Remember that no guns allowed in their offices or chambers. Nope!

6. That was my thought exactly.
I am a faculty member at a UW System campus and the shit students do on weekends while wasted- WITHOUT firearms- would make your head spin. Hell, the shit I did in college...
Guns plus alcohol- yeah great idea. Guns plus emotional volatility- great idea. Right. We need MORE GUNS on campus. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
