"[The] student body supports [the] current safety procedures of the University, but we encourage research of other ways to keep us safe," said SGA Vice President Madeline Barter...
Barter, on the other hand, said she is against students being allowed to carry on campus. She said she feels the pressures of college life, along with the emotional changes many college students are going through, do not make a good environment when guns are thrown in the mix.
"Guns in that atmosphere does not sound like a good idea," she said.
OK, Madeline, suppose you tell us your qualifications for reaching that conclusion. What training do you have in self defense and use of arms? I mean, you come off sounding like you know what you're talking about.
Do you?
And it's too bad you've never taken responsibility for yourselves as men, Phillip Martin and "NRA member" Russell Howard*, but somehow your use of the words "dumb" and "stupid" seem appropriately ironic.
Don't let us make decisions. Put our lives and safety in someone else's hands.
Do you boys ever listen to yourself? Who would expect another man to put his life on the line for someone who is unwilling to protect himself but a child, and not a very bright one at that?
Y'all seem to be doing your best to guarantee a real crimson tide.
