It's about time we have a law against everything. - What else is new Thu, 14 May 2009 18:44:52 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4377#comment-1065 It is currently against the law to conceal a weapon while intoxicated. This rule applies to citizens with or without a concealed carry permit. - AReese Thu, 14 May 2009 13:17:01 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4377#comment-1060 This is RS 40:1379.3 http://www.legis.state.la.us/lss/lss.asp?doc=97451 Read the law before you jump to conclusions. College students under the age of 21 cannot carry concealed. That means only college seniors for the most part could carry. This law specifically excludes whackadoos. The only issue I have with the concealed carry is that an honorably discharged Armed Forces member should be allowed even if under age of 21. If you could trust them to carry a fully auto weapon in Iraq or Afganistan or elsewhere, you can't trust them on campus, using their GI bill for education? The key problem in the active shooter scenario is for the police to distinguish friend from foe. Require that concealed carry holders work with campus and local police in training, so that the police can easily identify the good guys by working with them. - Phil Wed, 13 May 2009 23:36:11 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4377#comment-1057 I hope wiser heads prevail. More security on campus, I can support. Guns on campus could result in more murders and suicides. I don't like the idea of sending my children to university with a bunch of impulsive young people who might be packing. And that's considering before those young people are chemically enhanced. - Only3togo...

And how much tougher can you get in punishment than the death penalty? I hope this ridiculous bill dies a miserable death. The thought of a bunch of frat boys carrying around concealed weapons is scary. - JP Wed, 13 May 2009 16:20:07 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4377#comment-1053 2 places where shootings happen often, guns and post offices. Why? Because guns aren't allowed there. There's already a law saying don't kill people. Will making one saying don't do it at school stop someone? More laws is not the answer, tougher punishment is. - Packing Heat Wed, 13 May 2009 15:19:08 +0100
