one of two things happened.....either people like the columbine shooters and the VT shooter didn't GET that memo, or they did and took full fucking advantage of it.

it is most definitely NOT the society the founders envisioned. two reasons why.
1) too many people decided that they could and should absolutely rely on government for the safety and security, therefore giving up their guns, and making themselves unarmed victims or cowards.....
2) letting said governments make gun ownership unlawful, which did crap because criminals (those who prey on unarmed victims) don't give a damn about guns being unlawful.

for the record, I have met a handful of 'liberals' who totally believe in carrying, on campus as well as everywhere else, so this 'idiotic notion' that you assume to be completely conservative is alot of BS.

exactly like your statement that anyone who could possibly advocate students carrying on campus is consumed with a idiotic conservative idea?
