... at least he gets it half right:
College leaders and administrators are once-again lining up in opposition. In doing so, they run out a parade of horribles to illustrate the harm pistol-packing students and teachers will cause. Why, it will be Armageddon – drunken college students shooting up dorms and fraternities, running gun battles in the halls; mass hysteria.
Except it won’t happen. Four states – Oregon, Utah, Wisconsin and Mississippi- already allow guns on campus and so far nothing bad has happened. Nor is it likely to happen.
Where he gets it wrong is when he says that students won't be any safer for having armed citizens around. They may not, until the next active shooter shows up - then, at least,they'll have a fighting chance, instead of curling up so that they can be shot four times.
