I can't believe that I work full-time on this campus,,,
And didn't even know that this gun forum/discussion was going to take place.
The Daily O'Collegian article,,,
IMHO it's not a very well written article,,,
But at least they did give the debate front page coverage,,,
That's more coverage than they gave the forum's announcement.
The article states that:
"Large majority in attendance favored concealed carry on campus."
I would make a bet agreeing that isn't a campus consensus but rather that of the forum attendees.
As much of a 2-A advocate as I am,,,
I must admit I am a bit mixed on this subject,,,
If it ever came to a public referendum I would vote yes,,,
But I do believe that all it will take is one AD or ND to squelch campus carry.
State Senator Steve Russel proposed SB 858,,,
This would allow CCP holders to carry legally on campus.
I'm not quite sure how this would work out in legislation,,,
Oklahoma has a law preventing employers from banning weapons in parked cars,,,
The law preventing that for University Faculty/Staff/Students is the law prohibiting weapons on State Property.
So I feel his proposed legislation is designed to correct that situation,,,
As much as it is to allow concealed carry on campus.
As the article states:
"The bill would not prevent Oklahoma colleges and universities the right to have a policy against concealed carry."
Right now, if I want to go to the range after work,,,
I have to park somewhere off campus,,,
I hate that.
We now have a Pro 2-A Governor,,,
Maybe this bill will actually get passed and signed.
How do you folk feel about on-campus carry?
