Colleges are concentrations of "progressive" power.

I’m always reminded about Indian Casino’s in California when they unilaterally decided that they can create and uphold their own gambling laws on their reservation.

This ended rather quickly when the state started ‘planned’ maintenance on the only road that lead to the Casino — reducing it to a single lane of one way traffic directed by flagmen.

I've said it before; "If you want to get a whole bunch of guns off the street at one time, the solution is very simple. Disarm the police."

Invariably, the Booger Eating Moron leftists, sputter incoherently, "that's not what I mean!"

The simple fact is that it's NOT the legally armed civilian that causes the problems, but the criminals. And since law abiding armed citizens, by definition, refuse to patronize businesses that are "gun free zones," the only people carrying guns there will be criminals. But that idea is just too simple for leftists to understand.

For some reason, they believe that criminals will obey laws like that, sort of like believing that a carpenter would stop using a hammer if it was outlawed.

The language of the law does not include any triggers, sanctions or punishments if a college or university refuses to allow guns on campus.

Silliness. This is not private property, it is state property, and state laws apply. How does any university "refuse to allow" something that is specifically permitted by state law? And expect to get its funding after the next Board meeting? Especially after it gets dragged into the inevitable unlawful termination lawsuit?

"Town vs gown" issues are as old as universities, but this one is particularly stupid. It's the law. It's working fine. There is no problem here unless one is artificially created.
