Clemson student club to give away large, bad-ass gun at banquet

On April 19, when the Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) chapter at Clemson University hosts its inaugural Second Amendment Banquet, the highlight will likely be a giveaway of a Mossberg 715T semiautomatic rifle.

Nick James, who chairs Clemson’s YAF chapter, says that his group will not be able to give the prize to the winner on the night of the event because state law bans firearms from campus. (He also stresses that the weapon will never actually be on campus.)

In an editorial on YAF’s blog, James explains the group’s rationale for the rifle giveaway.

“Our main motivation in putting this event together has been the recent talk of gun registration, which aims to limit our Second Amendment rights,” wrote James.

How refreshing to see there are some college students with their heads screwed on correctly.

My late Aunt’s brother was Red Horton, a founder of IPTAY. the paw prints went right past her home! The only good thing about BC going to the ACC is that I get to have Clemson come up here. Nice people you Tigers.

As a Gamecock, there’s not much about Clemson that I like. However, for this news event I will make an exception. We all need to defend the 2nd Amendment.
