I saw a piece on ABC about the Legislature and the fact that they may change the law to enable the carry of fire arms on campus. The piece used U of M flint campus as the example. Now I am all for this, as far as I am concerned it is legal now based on the Constitution. What caught my attention was the people interviewed.
First was a cop...well you could call him that, I saw a glorified security cop. The interview said he has been keeping campus safe for the last 30 years. Well I know for a fact that that campus has had some problems in just the last few months, so it is not safe. It may be safer than the downtown area but not safe. One cop cannot keep the whole campus safe, and from his appearance I'd say he couldn't run the length of my .45 barrel with out passing out.
Second they interviewed people who were anti. One guy said I don't think college kids should bring guns to school. (um why?) The next guy said it would allow bad guys to bring a gun where it don't belong, what if they get a bad grade? what happens then?. These two people are the reason not every one should be in college.
The third and last guy interviewed was a college administrator who said " There are some in the legislature who feel that we shouldn't be able to govern our selves, and that we should be regulated under the law like the rest of the state, I don't think we should" (para phrasing)
I wonder if people who appear to be educated are really just elitist (Idiot Wind)
ever hear of fair & equal treatment under the law. I mean colleges recieve tax money from the people of Michigan, so the college should have to follow the same rules we have to abide buy.
