Does anyone think we should have open carry at all schools?

[Elsa]

I argued with someone on Fb today who thinks the 2nd amendment should have no limitations. Schools, college campuses, hospitals, psych wards, wherever!

I wasn't aware this was an ACTUAL argument. Or is she just fucking insane and no one else, not even the NRA, feels this way?
She was all "if my kids teacher has a CHL I'd be all for her carrying in the kindy class!"
::vomit::

[rageragerage]

Nooooooo.

[rageragerage]

But it's a thing. I've seen teachers that want to carry on campus. Because logic has no place in moden society.

[Deleted]

What a moron!


her not you.

[suzyp]

Um, no.

And it's because people are morons and the NRA has convinced people that the 2nd Amendment is absolute, and subject to no limitations. Despite the fact that ALL amendments have certain limitations to them.

[amberlyrose]

Didn't some state, like Oklahoma or Kansas, just allow this?

[missmaddie]

I can't even fathom this possibility.

I feel like OK did.

No.

[juliachild]

Yes I have heard people make this argument. They argue for concealed carry in schools and government buildings. Crazy cakes.

[Elsa]

I kept throwing stats and research at her. And she was all "but what if there's a terrorist attack at your college?! You'll be grateful for the guy who is carrying then!"

Lol ok

[Narwhal]

No. I can't even begin to understand how the solution to guns is more guns. It makes me rage beyond anything. Now I'm all fired up! Lol.

[Elsa]

And one of my professor friends was also arguing my side and crazy kept saying "ok 'professor'". It was so fucking rude.

No, because odds are the "hero" will shoot 5 other people and not the shooter at all. Seriously, this makes me  so mad.

No way under any circumstances.

No no. Obviously the "hero's" gun will be faster and better than the shooter's gun. The hero will always save the day. And in this world cops are incompetent.

[rageragerage]

I looked up what OK passed, apparently schools can designate an employee to be armed on campus. The school pays for the training. This is in addition to the armed resource officer.

Seems legit

I'm sorry you know such stupid people.

[underwaterrhymes]

People are fucking nuts.

[Kit]

Uhhhhhhhh. No.

And 911 will put you on hold

NO. NO. NO. NO.

I cannot get over what an epically bad idea this is. I get so upset when people say shit like this. I've argued with these fools several times. Ugh.

ETA: my own fools...not the ones you're currently engaged with.

I'm here too. I hate guns SO much and wish they were completely banned.

[lilac05]

Yes, some people do...NOT me.

I highly doubt that anyone will admit it on ML, though!

There was a mom in one of my moms' groups who said she carried 99% of the time...even at play dates. We stopped getting together once I learned that.

[janetplanet20]

Also, I'm a teacher and I've worked with some crazy ales colleagues-I'd be terrified if they were allowed to have guns on campus. I'd also worry about a student taking a teacher's gun,

Ugh, I just do not understand the need/want to carry a gun around with you. I'd have dropped her like a hot potato too Bc I would constantly be terrified of an accident happening.

[eb777888]

Have you met H's family? I think you have. Yes, most of them are all for this and post about it on FB. Arm the schools, y'all!

I would pull David out of the school if this ever happened. I'd fucking MOVE before I'd allow him to go to a school that had a staff with guns. I'd home school before this. Fuck. No.

[meganew]

Lolololololol.

Lol nah, one of my friends is a college professor and she posted
And asked all her friends to call their state legislator today and tell them to vote against campus carry. Then crazy cakes shows up and starts mouthing off and being rude to my friend.
I don't have patience for that shit.
