Virginia Tech postscript

Gun Nuts

I'm heartened by this poll, especially since CNN is a destination site for so many lefty dicklikkers. I posted yesterday a Roanoke Times article exalting the failure last year of Virginia HB 1572, which would have allowed handguns on college campuses [Oh, BTW!  Kim has more about the Roanoke Times that you'll have to read to believe] What that bill was attempting to do was restore already held rights of Virginia's college community.  Many students and professors hold carry permits, but at schools like Virginia Tech, they are obliged to hand them over to campus police before setting foot on campus.  Virginia has already upheld the right to carry in bars and churches, if I'm not mistaken, so why not colleges? It will be interesting to find out whether any student or faculty in that building was a victim of this misguided rule.   Maybe the next lunatic with an illegal gun will rampage in the Roanoke Times building.  Sheesh.

How odd! The poll you posted is already gone from the link. It's been changed to another question.

That was quick.
