12. I fail to see the problem with CCW on campus.

If I'm 21 years old and have had a background check and hold a CCW permit and I can walk down main street with a gun, why can't I go to my night classes with one?

There have been no problems at any of the colleges and universities that presently allow CCW on campus.

There have been shootings at colleges that prohibit firearms on campus.

Anyone who wants to bring a gun onto a college campus and shoot someone can easily do so whether it is against the policies or not, or even if it is against the law or not.

Amy Bishop walked into my class building on the UAH campus and shot 6 people, killing 3. The rules and laws did not matter to her, and since no one frisks people when they come to school, nothing could stop her.
