Here’s What You Said:
- “None of the school shootings in this country would have been as severe had armed staff been present.”
- “I think that it is important to understand that driving is a privilege and not a right. I believe raising the age could diminish some of the sense of entitlement so many young kids have regarding driving.”
- “Most CCW holders receive rudimentary training to shoot a weapon, allowing someone to carry a weapon on campus is a disaster waiting to happen.”
- “Allowing staff to carry concealed weapons on campus is insane. Most would have them taken away from them and used against them.”
- “Weapons on campus is a funny issue. Normally I would just answer no, but with all of the gun problems lately, campus security should be the deciding factor.”
- “If carrying concealed weapons by anyone other than police is allowed on campuses, this would create a new set of liabilities for colleges and schools.”
- “Texting and driving, drinking and driving, drinking and carrying a gun- all bad ideas. All result in tragic consequences. Common sense has to be revived before the “me now” generation gets too out of touch with reality.”
- “I have mixed feelings about the driving age. I have had dealings with 16-year-old kids who are very mature for their age and very responsible. I have also seen what happens to those who do not take the responsibility of driving seriously. I could support a change to make mandatory 2 years of experience behind the wheel, but leave some discretion in the hands of the Secretary of State or whoever manages the Drivers Bureau for your state.”
- “It would be a serious mistake to allow guns on campus, especially on campuses where the administration does not allow its officers to carry guns.”
- “Only trained law enforcement should have weapons on a college campus.”
- “Forbidding self defense by law-abiding individuals only guarantees a safe zone for criminals, not for the staff and students. The military calls it a target-rich environment.”
