Following an hour-and-a-half of arguments, the Idaho House passed a measure this morning that prevents Idaho's universities from banning guns on campus other than in undergrad residence halls.

"I want to live in a country and in a state where citizens are armed," said Republican Rep. Ken Roberts.

"I've heard from way too many students and professors from the University of Idaho that are asking me to oppose this bill," said Democratic Rep. Shirley Ringo.

The measure now heads to to the Senate for consideration.

I wonder.....

I wonder how many students and faculty contacted Rep Ringo supporting lifting the ban. I am sure she would not tell me. Nice to hear of a Representitive saying he WANTED people to go armed.
