To the Editor,
It’s hard to fathom the idea that
state officials are considering allowing college students to carry
guns. Have they been given over to reprobate minds?
Each year during spring break we hear of
drunk and rowdy college students being killed falling off hotel
balconies. What headlines can we expect to read in the newspapers
if they carry guns? What about the disgruntled student who
didn’t quite get the grade he or she thought they deserved
who seeks revenge against the professor, or who seeks revenge
against a fellow student over a disagreement?
This trend toward “Dodge City
Universities” is frightening and ludicrous to say the least
and if allowed, we’ll need to be sure to set aside a piece of
land at each college known as “Boot Hill.”
