By Kyeland Jackson–
Someone posted a petition to bring concealed carry to campus on a bulletin board in the library. Reading “Gun free zones don’t work” and “Universities choose to make you an easy target,” the petition asks readers to support bill HB 221, a state bill to allow citizens to carry concealed weapons on university campuses.
Concealed carry off campus is already allowed, with the bill simply extending current law. The purpose of the bill is to “defend ourselves as a community.” But exactly who are you defending?
Using the phrase “fight fire with fire” doesn’t work here.
