[Vision2020] Guns on campus

[Donovan Arnold]

Guns on campus? I think it is an elaborate plan of the Idaho GOP to reduce the number of college students so they can spend less on education and more on prisons. 
 
How long before Idaho requires University students to buy overpriced handguns along with their overpriced health insurance, overpriced parking permits, overpriced computer software, overpriced textbooks, and overpriced dorm cafeteria "food"?

Another excellent argument against this campus gun rule thing. But, alas, neither overwhelmingly convincing logic, rational, well-posited arguments, nor common sense has much sway these days. You have to get political. It’s the only way to be sure.

Letter to the NY Times:

<snip>…As psychiatrists who have done extensive work in college mental health and safety, we applaud Gail Collins’s critique of efforts by several state legislators to loosen restrictions on carrying guns on college campuses.

…Advocates of arming more college students are therefore trying to protect against an extremely rare event while potentially putting guns into the hands of large numbers of depressed, suicidal or intoxicated students who will be at increased risk, and put others at risk, too.
