Keeping guns off campuses
[TN] Senate Bill 399, a bill that would allow guns on university campuses, was delayed until next year after Senator Beverly Marrero moved the bill to summer study in the Senate Judiciary Committee this week.
The bill is opposed by higher education officials and law enforcement groups who argue that it would decrease security and make emergencies more difficult to control.

The only guns the bill would keep off campus are the ones that would be good to have. Responsible, permit carrying, trained people.
