And...here's a guy who's really helping out campus carry.

[rbMPSH12]

The Idaho campus carry law passed, what, a few months ago? And a university staff member has already shot himself? Doesn't say the type of gun or if there was any kind of holster involved.

What kills me is this is the type of story that will get press, not the story of granny protecting herself.

Looks like they only hand out those "enhanced" concealed carry permits out to the bright ones. Now all the on-the-fence students about campus carry, or guns in general, will be pushed off the fence.

"enhanced concealed carry permit"?

Hell, Jeremiah, those two can't conceal their drawers, much less a firearm!

"enhanced concealed carry permit"?

More people carrying weapons will mean more accidental shootings and more negligent discharges. It will also mean more people who are equipped to intervene in an active shooter, etc. You take the bad with the good, you just hope the good outweighs the bad.

And hope this doesn't the require mandatory training and "sensitive area" crowds traction to dampen current advances.

An instructor at Idaho State University was injured in a classroom Tuesday after the gun in his pocket fired, wounding the man in the foot.

fired...


I am convinced now that Kirk is right.
Another holsterless pocket carry tragedy.

Another case of "Wrap your tool, don't be a fool."

Except Kirk has the annoying (to me) habit of leaving the "holsterless" part out of all of his statements.
Holsterless carry is a stupid idea no matter what the location/method.

Every cloud has a silver lining though. He can always pursue a career in public indoctrination with the DEA.

Of course this will get blown up in the media.....

They just getting ready for Bubba.
