IIRC, Dr. Hupp's campaign for concealed carry privileges in Texas led to Ann Richard's defeat by GWB. The rest is history.

"We cannot rely on students who have not been drilled in these situations to respond properly. Would they freeze up? Would they have a sense of terror in their hearts so they respond inappropriately?" he says. "Our officers have a level of life experience which students can't possibly have at the age of 21 or 22."

"Shall not be infringed".

Neil Smith. The Atlanta Declaration

"Our officers have a level of life experience which students can't possibly have at the age of 21 or 22."
I nominate Chief Doak as asshat of the week.
