Online petition

The petition is open to "members of the community."
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/2/Old-Dominion-Concealed-Carry-Safe/

Looks like they could use some help. Yes, it's about concealed carry but CC is better than nothing at all.

Just signed the petition - only 59 counted so far, the need a minimum of 5000.

Come on - ROLL

BTW - It reads that those "with Valid Concealed Carry Permits........be permitted to carry."
..........I see nothing in that wording to exclude OC w/permit.

ODU STATEMENT, Got it from wavy 10 video,
"the university has a wide range of safety measures in place to provide an environment where members of our community are free to learn and grow"

What the heck? Free to learn and grow to get robbed? :banghead: hey come ol down we teach you how to get robbed and mugged for free. Why do the criminals have all the rights ..... :eek:

I am confused on the girls statement, "A lot of the crime I think comes with going to school in a city. If you're going to come here, you should be ready for that. It's Norfolk, it's not the middle of nowhere,"


"If you're going to come here, you should be ready for that."
Hmmm, allow guns?

Several students had not heard of the petition but they see the police and feel safe.
FYI, all those extra "security" measures since the latest robberies have been gone for probably over a month now...

Looks like I posted basically the same story based on Fox43's report. I absolutely love the obfuscating language in ODU's policy statement against firearms. Never addresses non-students/staff. I pointed that out when I commented on 43's website.

That's debatable....but I read the petition and it only addresses students, faculty and staff and does not change what the general public can do...so I signed it.

10 on your side... I hope they are on OUR side.

Are university's tax payer money right?? a public place like a public park, same for public schools? how do they make their on little laws, that is violation of the law. Look at my quote.. This needs to be taken care of, crime happens so much on school grounds, I WONDER WHY? why is there so much crime at a school such as ODU, that police have to patrol it? walmart only needs it at night, target doesnt have police patroling it(far as I know)

--Why is there not as much crime at these locations such as shopping areas? because people can carry guns at these locations and crime is reduced.

Please, God, tell me that ocholsteroc is not a college student, or if so, that English is not his primary language.

We had to go with CC as that is already a huge jump. Open Carry will never happen at that school.

Where just trying to be as mainstream as possible so that we have a chance at winning
