Quite a bit of reaction to my editorial this week on allowing students and faculty to carry guns on Texas college campuses. I said it's a bad idea.
Kenneth writes..."You left out the main objectives of the bill. It is only meant for faculty and students over the age of 21 who have received training and get a state permit to carry a gun, which is a great idea to be able to stop maniacs from killing a lot of people in one sweep."
And Billy writes..."Had this been the law at Virginia Tech I suspect lives would have been saved. You should check statistics where citizens have the right to protect and defend themselves compared to places they don't. Your heart may be in the right place but you are wrong."
Guns on college campuses. It's a hot topic. Thank you for your comments. I'm James Smith.
