These are easy questions in my opinion.

Alcohol: What’s to gain from having it on campus? You can wait till tonight. Till then, shut up and fight for personal rights that actually matter. Your the same people that think gay marraige shouldn’t be allowed. Hippocritical as usual.

Concealed Weapons: if you get caught with it, it wasn’t concealed after all. I have a strict reasonable don’t ask don’t tell policy regarding weapons used for protection.

Thanks for recognizing the complexity of the issues that are being discussed. This is the first opinion piece I’ve read from this paper that really seems like it was thought through.

Whatever their faults, most libertarians that I’ve come in contact with have at least examined the issues in some depth.

This op-ed is presumptively a response to the negative comments reacting to that moronically ill-informed editorial “Concealed weapons pose a threat to campus,” presumptively written by an out-of-state Communist coward.

Take it up with Utah State Legislature. They are the ones who write the bills and pass laws regulating the right to keep and bear arms. They are the ones who passed the law that permit the right to carry on public campus, provided the carrier holds a valid concealed carry license. They also amend and regulate alcohol laws, but leaves policy on alcohol consumption to administration at public and private colleges across the State of Utah.

You cannot do anything about banishing the right-to-carry under prescribed legal circumstances because it’s an established Utah law. Write to local district representatives and state senators to
complain if that makes your day…
