Perry's signature. The bleating of deans and regents was drowned out by common sense of the half-million CHL holders in the state who don't shoot up the towns randomly.Ed Rasimushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13667325554289268659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-46830487289422389312011-05-18T19:54:46.230-05:002011-05-18T19:54:46.230-05:00The notion of guns on campus - my what a differenc...The notion of guns on campus - my what a difference a generation makes.<br /><br />When I was in college in the early '80s, I took some ROTC marksmanship classes in lieu of PE. It was a good trade-off for me, as I could take morning classes, and be at work at my bank job by 2:00 without having to shower.<br /><br />We had an underground rimfire range under one of the athletics buildings, and bringing one's own firearms was permitted. I remember shooting my High Standard HD-Military, and my Dad's Martini-actioned BSA target rifle on that basement range.<br /><br />Of course, that scenario has long since passed.<br /><br />Pity.an Donalbanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418506325893352676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-87166765388885926432011-05-18T18:39:30.678-05:002011-05-18T18:39:30.678-05:00CU was a few worlds and a universe or two away fro...CU was a few worlds and a universe or two away from that place where I went to school a mere 25 miles southAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-73221971430418758722011-05-18T09:22:42.599-05:002011-05-18T09:22:42.599-05:00And, just because they are teaching in a college d...And, just because they are teaching in a college doesn't mean they are liberal hoplophobes. <br /><br />I had occasion to speak on consecutive days at USAFA and UC-Boulder to the AFROTC corps.
