a win for U of Colorado students
The Colorado Supreme Court has ruled that the U of Colorado cannot block CCW holders from carrying on campus:

Sort of a drive by but I will let it pass. Oregon just had some kind of negative result for guns on campus. Don't have time to google it, saw a blurb.

It is to be noted that University of Colorado (Boulder) is the state institution that banned guns.
Colorado State University (Ft. Collins) decided not to resist about 10 years ago. CCW by properly permitted students and faculty has not resulted in daily massacres as the CU folks were sure would happen. Evidence and experience seems to not count for the antis. Oh, and don't forget that the City of Boulder banned nuclear weapons back in the '70's (except for governments, of course). Silly people. |

Didn't I see somewhere where CSU experienced a double-digit decrease in crime (during which the rest of the nation was experiencing a decrease, too) but that U of C experienced a slight increase in crime?
