That lady over at Modern Commentaries gets to the heart of it, quickly.
Background:
College students across the country have been strapping empty holsters around their waists this week to protest laws that prohibit concealed weapons on campus, citing concerns over campus shootings
(snip)
others believe college is no place for firearms.
"You don't like the fact that you can't have a gun on your college campus? Drop out of school," said Peter Hamm, a spokesman for the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence.
Not the right thing to say, Peter. Amy rips your eyeballs out:
Can you imagine if someone had said to Muslim students, "You don't like the fact that you can't have footbaths on your college campus? Drop out of school."
Or if someone said to homosexuals on campus, "You don't like the fact that you can't have a GLBT group on your college campus? Drop out of school."
Or if someone said to an atheist on campus, "You don't like the fact that you have a chapel on your college campus? Drop out of school."
And, of course, 'bearing arms' is a Constitutional right--unlike footbaths.

Thanks for the link, Dad.
I read that article and nearly put my fist through my monitor.
"Drop out of school..."
Please.
Since when did supporters of the 2nd Amendment not have the right to equal access in education?
