If you were involved in a desperately violent situation would you want to be armed and protected or left empty handed?
If it were me–a responsible 22 year old woman–I sure wouldn’t want to be found in harms way without a way to defend myself, no matter what the location.
Two people–a faculty member and an additional victim (likely a student)–were violently murdered at Casper College in Wyoming this morning. The college spokesman, Rich Fujita, told reporters that a crossbow and another similar weapon were used in the attacks.
Wyoming state gun laws leave it to the discretion of college administrators to determine whether or not college students are permitted to conceal carry on campus. The law reads:
“Wyoming Statute 6-8-104 (t) “No permit issued pursuant to this section or any permit issued from any other state shall authorize any person to carry a concealed firearm into- Any college or university facility without the written consent of the security service of the college or university”
Also prohibited 6-8-104(vi) Any school, college or professional athletic event not related to firearms.”
Below is a response to a students request (name withheld) to carry a firearm on campus from the Director of Campus Safety at Casper College:

I regret to inform you that this request is denied. Casper College does not permit the carrying of weapons on the campus regardless of whether a person possesses a concealed firearm permit.
Respectively yours,

Director of Campus Security and Judicial Affairs Officer
Casper College

Three innocent people were killed at Casper College this morning, and I can’t help to think that if someone were armed, innocent lives could have been saved.
This is exactly what groups like Students For Concealed Carry On Campus (SCCC) advocate for and acknowledge: it’s not guns or weapons that kill people, people that have the intent to kill are who kill people.
"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
