Re: Another special session?

Not sure I like the idea of 21 year old men having ready access to firearms. Arguments over girls already result in fights - what would adding potential firearms to the mix do. Before someone comes back about how responsible CHL holders are just remember the dumb incidents that have been posted about irresponsible CHL holders.
The same old specious argument against carry revised and applied to college campuses: "There will be blood running down the ivy of our cherished institutions." The predictions of blood in the streets due to fistfights have not come true (except for in FL) and the roads and highways are not littered with bodies as a result of fender benders and road rage, I don't see any reason to expect it to be any different on college campuses, particularly considering that 21 year old men already have ready access to firearms, and that only a small percentage of them have CHLs.
