Following up on a December vote to ban concealed weapons at Colorado State University, the institution’s Board of Governors unanimously approved a plan today to put the new policy into effect, according to The Coloradoan, a newspaper in Fort Collins. The decision has split the two-campus system, with faculty and staff members supporting the ban and students opposing it. Pro-gun groups have vowed to challenge the new policy in court, asserting that it represented a violation of the Second Amendment.

Why does no one notice the implications of the split? Those who are more educated and more experienced are opposed to guns on campus. Those who are younger and callow are for it. Do we really think the tail should wag the dog — again?!

More educated does not equate to wise. Old does not equate to wise. Young does not equate to foolish. What is your point?

“Young does not equate to foolish.” You are correct, young equals foolish only 99% of the time! :-)
