    for summer break‚ their campus was gun-free. Last month‚ they returned to a campus where just about anyone can carry a gun just about anywhere. This misguided change wasn’t the university’s idea. For 136 years‚ dating to the days of the Wild West‚ Colorado’s flagship university had kept guns off campus. Then‚ in 2008‚ two students and a national group called Students for Concealed Carry challenged the ban‚ and they eventually prevailed in the state’s highest court. That made Colorado one of five

Another point in this section that grabbed my attention was President Clinton’s assault-weapons ban. I feel that this law should still be in place‚ because it allows people to carry guns but of a less lethal nature. This is my opinion

    protect others in dangerous situations. The attacker was killed by a legal concealed carry permit holder; the attacker could only wound 3 victims before attempting to flee after being shot in the leg by the concealed carry permit holder (Chasmar 1).
