The state is considering a law that would allow students to carry concealed weapons on campus. The quintessential liberal reaction from Karen Tumulty:
According to the AP, there isn’t a single state in the country that allows students to carry a concealed weapon on campus, which might explain why there isn’t a single example of students fighting back during one of these school shootings. The report quotes one student at UT who was at Virginia Tech during the shootings there. He says, “The idea that somebody could stop a school shooting with a gun is impossible. It’s reactive, not preventative.” That just doesn’t make any sense. When candidate Obama would talk about gun control, he would often use the same formulation: “what works in Cheyenne may not work in Chicago.” Well, what didn’t work at Virginia Tech isn’t going to work at the University of Texas.
