BTW – If any of you anti-gun folks are in a classroom with my daughter at PSU, and some yahoo starts shooting, you might want to be behind her, I give the perp 1-3 shots, which may kill some of you folks, before my daughter returns fire.
She’s ex-military, got back from Iraq, and realizes that the rules put in place by the campus officials are illegal, and yes she has carried on campus against the rules with all proper State documents for 2.5 years.
Couple more to add to the list of sayings:
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
I would prefer to be judged by 12, than carried by 6.
Exactly. They’d probably expel her if they found out. Well, maybe not right now… as they realise their gig is almost up.
Actually, I wonder how many people have been disciplined under these illegal regulations. If you have, you should get a lawyer and ask questions about whether or not your rights were violated.
I also added “public university” because the poll question says “college.” This is about public property owned by the taxpayers. Were this private property, we would never be having this debate. A private college has absolutely every right to set their own rules.
I added “peaceful” because that is what this is about. Remember: Criminals always will carry firearms. This is about whether or not YOU should have the right do defend yourselves from them.
Brad Jardis and Tommy Mozingo take questions from the crowd
It was showtime, and no one much desired to be the first to stand in the courtyard. In front of the Hartman Union Building (HUB) at Plymouth State University, first came the journalists, then the (technically) counter protesters. They were organized with signs. Their protest began as they stood in a line, more signs than students. A familiar cast from independent media streamed in. Sheriff’s deputies, state troopers and, to a much lesser extent, university police formed compacted columns at all major walkway points of entry.
The chalk sat locked in my trunk, but I bore two arms as I awaited Brad Jardis and Tommy Mozingo’s responsible gun carry outreach event. My customary sidearm, the Nikon Coolpix S570 sat mounted atop my telescopic tripod. On my hip was a spare battery and a fully unloaded 8 gigabyte SD card. Slung on my back, in a portable DVD player case that functions superior to any camera case I’ve seen for the purpose, was a a JVC mini DV camcorder with a single battery pack. The young dinosaur of the pre-digital age was at the ready in the case that I expended all of my digital video, or if any action required the 32x optical zoom capability. (more…)
Students at Plymouth State University will be excused from the last day of classes tomorrow if they feel anxious about a planned pro-gun-rights protest. (more…)
Here’s a current rundown of mainstream media reports on today’s successful gun outreach on Plymouth State University campus:
