Ohio Rep. Ron Maag (R...of course) wants to force university faculty and staff to allow concealed-carry guns into our workplaces, yet his workplace (the Ohio Statehouse) remains gun-free.

Craig Froehle fight back! Pull the pin on a Pop-Quiz and lob it into the classroom before you enter!

ReplyDeleteMark Durham Guess what those bricks are made of.
ReplyDeleteEr, has a backpack become some sort of class marker in Ohio?
ReplyDeleteAndres Soolo no, but you could hide dangerous things in one...things they're afraid you'll use to hurt them.
ReplyDeleteCraig Froehle: But dangerous things could also be fit in a briefcase.
ReplyDeleteAndres Soolo A large backpack has quite a bit more volume and can take much longer to search than a briefcase.

ReplyDeleteHouses of worship already have opt-in provisions under existing laws.

Craig Froehle And as we all know a retrofitted pressure cooker will fit in a backpack, or a gun with many hundred's of rounds of ammunition. We have become a weapon obsessed society.
