Texas "guns in college" law is causing mass emigration from the state

How 'campus carry' is spurring a Texas brain drain | Arts | Dallas News

Texas recently allowed college students to carry guns on campus. In addition to the spike in crime this has caused (the murder rate on college campuses in Texas has increased by FOUR HUNDRED per cent over the past four MONTHS), many professors and students, fearing for their lives, have found jobs or positions at colleges in other states.

This is another example of right wingers valuing their precious guns over the safety of their fellow citizens, or the quality of education in their state. Texas has become even more of a national laughingstock than it was already, and that's saying something.

There are colleges in Texas? I thought they were just front operations for an excuse to have a football team

Guns on campus in Texas has a fine tradition. Just ask Charles Whitman.

The previous ban on firearms on college campuses in Texas was enacted after the Charles Whitman massacre.

Looks like the right wing WANTS more school shootings. The nra takes pride in seeing people get shot.

The only answer to a bad man with a gun, is crossfire.

Well, using the term "college" to describe the schools in Texas is a bit misleading. Garbage all around, where the vast majority of students leave less educated than when they came in, with their heads filled with flat earth, evolution denial, and a shit ton of racism

 

[EvilCat Breath]

If this means that the wacky professors and the safe space needing students are leaving, Texas may end up with some worthwhile education.

It isn't the only answer, but it sure is a good one.

Texas never had worthwhile education, and thanks to their new "guns everywhere" law, they never will

I do not care how many bad men have guns, as long as good men are not denied an effective means of defending themselves.

Guns are not an effective means of self defense. There are about 300 cases of self defense with a gun per year, compared o 33,00 deaths from gun violence

Good point. He was stopped, in part, because of civilians with guns.

Ouch!

DERP!

 

[Penelope]

I do not care how many bad men have guns, as long as good men are not denied an effective means of defending themselves.

And who decides that?

 

[IsaacNewton]

Don't 'colleges' in Taxus teach that Jesus rode a dinosaur and the Earth is 6,000 years old?

The words college and Texas just don't go together. Like oil and water.

DERP!

I state statistics and facts, and you have no response, I see.

 

[Onyx]

Guns are not an effective means of self defense.

Yes, they actually are.

It is better to have the option of firing back and deregulating a hostile violent actor, then running tail waiting for the hostile violent actor to exhaust his clips.

There are about 300 cases of self defense with a gun per year, compared o 33,00 deaths from gun violence

Like I said, irrelevant to me.

If anything, this speaks more to why we need to ensure the good guys have firearms.

Texas would be the perfect testing place for a nuclear weapon.

And yes, you are right. The state of Texas MANDATES that all colleges in the country teach a creationism class, and prohibits the teaching of evolution in the state.

Wait, it prohibits the teaching of evolution?
