I was trained to shoot a 22, Glock and Winchester Rifle. Ironically, I cannot target due to a field cut in my optic nerve. So I plan on refraining from ever concealing a weapon. I will leave that to the experts.
Having worked on a campus during a shooting where 3 professors lost their lives, the plan for this kind of incident is always retrospective. We NEVER know when someone will flip out.
The other issue is there are quite a few students who grew up in a "demilitarized zone". Either in the US or foreign. Some of these kids actually can fire of a sub-automatic and hit their targets... Especially the children who are now adults from foreign countries. And let's think about how many kids who are now adults that grew up in gangland.
I do not want to restrict one's access to guns, but I have lost friends due to gun violence for dumb reasons. And to have it concealed weapons on a college campus, the ivory tower, what are we espousing? Higher learning? But to take that lunatic out, the kinds of guns he had--do you all think a Glock would have taken him out before he killed? Just asking?
