When the petition was posted is unclear, but it looks like the earliest signature and comment was made 18 days ago, and at this writing they still have over\u00a0700 signatures to go for a total goal of 2,500. That\u2019s in spite of being open to signers from all states and, per a drop-down country menu, from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n<p>So much for grassroots clamoring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re taking our oases of education, some of the most important institutions in our country, and using them as laboratories to test the limits of gun rights,\u201d Peters whimpers in self-righteous angst. \u201cAnd putting hundreds of thousands of students at risk in the process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGuns have no place on our campus, or any campus,\u201d she insists, just like she actually knows what she\u2019s talking about. \u201cThese places should remain institutions of higher learning, free from the worries that guns and violence bring. Our college campuses, where we harbor and educate our future, are not the place to experiment with gun rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So much for an argument that forgoes emotion and convinces\u00a0with unassailable logic.

Then again, perhaps there\u2019s a reason such a modest goal was picked in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not where Peters demonstrates how someone who presumes to teach doesn\u2019t even belong in the classroom without some heavy deprogramming and plenty of prerequisites, starting with the fundamentals. Because to make her point, she brings up UT Austin sniper Charles Whitman and his 1966 bloodbath\u00a0as the reason why everyone who\u2019s not a psychotic monster must ensure they\u2019re vulnerable to those who are.<br \/>\nRead the Remainder at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ammoland.com\/2015\/10\/anti-texas-campus-carry-petition-trips-over-inconvenient-truth\/?utm_source=Ammoland+Subscribers&amp;utm_campaign=e802dff22d-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_6f6fac3eaa-e802dff22d-20724777#axzz3oSCKNclD\">Ammo-Land<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; USA \u2013 -(Ammoland.com)-\u00a0\u201cOverturn SB 11 \u2018Campus Carry,\u2019\u201d busybody hoplophobe and legislative process ignoramus Sara Peters of Portland, OR, demands in a Change.org petition to the Texas State Senate, State House and Governor.
