Acording to this guy, a ccw violates the 1st amendment? What?
I have mixed emotions about this issue. I taught college classes for nearly 35 years, and we had some spirited discussions on controversial topics. I had one student stand up and say "How dare you insult my President" when I deprecated something that Clinton had done. Another time, after one of the Southern State Educational systems officially rounded Pi to 3.2 and I commented that they were idiots and that there must be no circles in that state, a student got upset. I know of a student who I flunked that may well have shot me if he could have. I challenged students knowledge and beliefs many times. It's part of the Socratic method of teaching.
Anyway, I would definitely have some unease if a pack of students to whom I was lecturing were carrying. It would force me to carry also. And I don't think that this is a good condition for advanced education.
Glad I'm retired.

I spent 26 years in law enforcement and now I'm a college student. Would it bother you if I was carrying in class?
It wouldn't. I would ask you to carry.
A 21yo who hasn't seen the world beyond his parents basement but mastered all levels in 'call of duty' otoh.....
Just two extremes along that spectrum. Now where to put the line, I don't know.

When do we decide that you are an adult? It used to be 18, you were an adult. Now when your 18, you legaly responsable, but your a second class citizen. You can't buy most guns, alcohol, or even rent a car Why 21? Why not 22? 25? How about 26 when you have to get your own helth care?
As a young person, it is extreamly dishartantaning, especially here, to be told that am not old enough to entitled to my constitutional rights.
This type of irrational fear of your fellow man is the basis of the progressive protectionist culture trying so hard to violate our rights. Surely as a gun owner yourself, you understand that the presence of a gun does not turn people into murderers.
