Texas To Allow Students To Bring Guns To College Campuses

by JacobSloan on May 29, 2013 in News
Guns: is there anything they can’t solve? KHOU Houston reports:

The Texas Legislature has approved a bill allowing students with proper licenses to keep guns in their cars on college campuses.

The House and Senate previously passed the proposal by Republican Senator Glenn Hegary. Both chambers on Sunday then approved a version reconciled in conference committee, sending it to Gov. Rick Perry’s desk to be signed into law.

The measure sparked some debate in the Senate and passed only after Democrats received assurances it wouldn’t be expanded to allow carrying guns on campus. House approval was easier.

Under current law, universities can post a sign prohibiting guns like any private property owner. But the approved measure overrides that.

:laughing: I knew you wanted to take this discussion nowhere

Canada: There were 158 homicides committed with a firearm in 2011, 13 fewer than the previous year. The 2011 rate of 0.46 firearm homicides per 100,000 population was the lowest in almost 50 years.


Texas: 2.91 gun murders per 100 000 population (2011)

0.46 < 2.91


I know, I know.... It'a lil awkward now eh?

Per capita and, I should have stated all crimes involving guns. Not specifically homicides.
