We Can Have Safer Schools

In light of the Illinois campus shooting, we can see more evidence that schools that allowed concealed carry are indeed safer schools.

We may yet learn that the shooter in this most recent case was confined to an institution, but that state mental health authorities did not forward his name to the NIC system, and therefore he passed the background investigation. Obama and Clinton have already reacted to the latest shooting with their appropriate sound bites. It is noted that Obama both supports an Individual's right to bear arms and supports D.C. Governments handgun ban. Now there's a man who can eloquently speak out of both sides of his mouth.

We will find out once again, the gun laws if properly administered in this case could have prevented a tragedy - given the fact that the ACLU, and mental health professionals are loath to have patient data provided to the federal government.....more of these incidents will occur.

Campus police just can't cope with this. The only solution is concealed carry on Campus.

Let's see if this issue - with this solution - can be framed as a question in upcoming Presidential debates.
