I dont want a bunch of moronic college students carrying weapons on campus.

I just wanted to know because I may be wrong, but since we are also funded the federal government and we wouldn't be following federal guidelines by having weapons on campus, we'd lose funding. We all know that the State isn't giving shit to Texas public institutions.

Oh, and for people that keep equating the PD to CHL holders, big difference. I can actually see the gun on the cop, you can't see the gun for people with CHLs. Just a tad bit against the law. Just so ya know.

you are the stupidest cunt i have ever met, and i pray you NEVER get into politics. CHL means CONCEALED HANDGUN LICENSE. you are NOT allowed to show it to people, because then it becomes a fashion accessory.


god dammit you just need to shut the fuck up, you sound so much smarter when you don't talk

In the United States, carrying concealed weapon (CCW, also known as concealed carry) is the legal authorization for private citizens to carry a handgun or other weapons in public in a concealed manner, either on the person or in close proximity to the person. The choice of permitted weapon depends on the state; some states restrict the weapon to a single handgun, whereas others permit multiple handguns or even martial arts weapons to be carried. CCW is a more generalized form of what some states call a concealed handgun license (CHL).

The current trend towards adopting concealed carry laws has been met with opposition; however, no state which has adopted a "shall-issue" concealed carry law has reversed its decision as of yet. Currently, 48 US states allow some form of concealed carry and about half provide for some variant on non-concealed "open-carry". In 13 states, the same permit or license is required to open-carry a handgun, but most states do not require a permit or license to carry openly; in six states, even with concealed-carry licenses or permits, open-carry is prohibited.
