Article: What University of Texas Campus Is Saying About Concealed Guns

[Doheny]

Figured I'd put this here rather than the CCw forum.

Many professors and students worry that guns in classrooms will frighten people and discourage free expression, which is the bedrock of academia.

That's a joke! Freedom of expression, only if you parrot the progressive mantra...

[EastCoaster]

The first time that another Seung-Hui Cho or Charles Whitman shows up to commit another crime, it will be used as another battle cry to ban firearms on campus..........even if another armed student stops the carnage before he or she can carry out another murder.

The antis don't get it and never will. They don't approve of others being able to empower themselves to combat violent evil, though history demonstrates that many will just as likely arm themselves or hire others to do it for them.

When was the last time there was a *true* "freedom of expression" in academia? Try supporting Trump and see how "free" the system really is...

Keep in mind that libtards lash out violently against any that disagree with them.

They naturally project their own evil tendencies onto everyone else.
Thus they fear anyone who might be armed *and* disagree with them.

You cannot cure stupid

I'll just leave this here.


The full video of you wish to waste about 10-12 minutes.

"Keep in mind that libtards lash out violently against any that disagree with them."

Exactly. It's the inevitable conclusion of a 'discussion' with them when their feeling based arguments fail miserably against fact based ideas and opinions.

From a social context, the issue isn't fear of guns. It's a fear that those guns will be used to keep the socialists in line.

Notice how it's the socialists who decry the rampant gun violence;
Notice how it's the socialists who want the freedom to speak on any topic;
Notice how it's the socialists who won't let anyone else speak on any topic;
Notice how it's the socialists who don't obey the law;
Notice how it's the socialists who ALWAYS start the violence.

Is it any wonder why the socialists don't want you to have a gun?

"Cocks not Glocks" -- Anti's losing their minds, again

Can't really find the words to describe a new tactic campus carry opponents are using. Really more of a visual that you can see here:

Suppose they are trying to get gain support by claiming they can receive a citation for bringing sex toys on campus as part of a sexual expression, yet not for bringing a gun to class. Weak argument but mildly amusing.

The links were not opening for me at this time so not sure if the lawsuit by 2 Texas Proffs against CC has been addressed.
Regardless it was based on 1st,2nd and 14 th amendment grounds. Fortunately the judge saw it as garbage and threw it out .
IMO these so called educators are really too stupid to associated with any institution of higher learning and they should be dismissed from all classroom teaching activities.
Their fear is that someone who is legally allowed to carry a firearm will plug them for bringing up topics the law abiding ccw holder cares about and disagree's with !!!

I hate to tell those morons that every thing they teach and believe is probably the exact opposite of what any gun owner knows to be true. So why do these dummys think a person would get a ccw to drill them? I mean the ccw doesnt excuse or give immunity to a person who pumps a slug into a brain dead,liberal liar and propagandist.

CCW holders may want consider using their legally carried firearm to protect themselves and people they know to be a high moral character if that type of situation arises.
Others are free to protect themselves with the sex toys they carry to protest legal campus carry ! As a side note,those displaying sex toys to protest campus carry are in some ways, a direct result of the dimwitted teachers who filed the extremely stupid and moronic lawsuit against campus carry. Thinking even a 5th grader would have more common sense !

Apparently these teachers know the lies they tell are so bad and so objectional,that a reasonal person who listens in will get the idea,this person really is such a poor excuse for humanity that he deserve's to get hosed.
For the record,no one would bother getting a ccw to shoot someone who teaches or pretends to teach. This type would just open fire and its very likely the law abiding ccw holder would try to take out the person or persons intent on committing murder.

It's amazing how different the response to CCW on campuses can be.

Are these the same campuses with "safe spaces" and "free speech zones"?

What an F-ing joke.....there hasn't been "free expression" on college campuses for at least 20-30yrs now. You are only free to express the ideas they want you to express. Anything else will get you failing grades and disciplinary actions. (Been there, done that....for real)

The biggest surprise out of this whole thing is the Republicans haven't fainted at the sight of a male phallus. If John Ashcroft were still around he would insist everyone put a drape over it.......

All in all I agree with you, except the part about not protecting those that may disagree with you. CCW permit holders are high moral people. When a fellow American is under threat of grave bodily injury, agree with them or not, CCW holders should assist. We will let the democrats play stupid life and death games, CCW holders would not discriminate in these kinds of situations due to their own high moral standards IMHO.

Of course we dont faint at that sight of male or female intimate parts. Its true John Ashcroft would not approve of having public school attendee's displaying such items in violation of the law. Then again why shouldn't the law have been enforced ? Maybe having the sex toy people get all the training,background checks and a permit like CCW holders get would have been appropriate.

It appears to be a fact that republicans are too classy for the public display of sex toys and other behavior that doesn't elevate our essential public endeavors. Ive been told that prude is not a word that comes to mind in regard to yours truly.
Your correct about CCWs holder's willingness to protect fellow Americans. Thank you for pointing it out my friend.
