Public overreaction to drills with fake rifles are nothing new on college campuses. In my four years of college, I saw enough incidents ranging from temporary confiscation by police officers who didn’t know the policy all the way to a Gunnery Sergeant having his NCO sword confiscated. But they never took the program down. Good gravy.

Here’s to hoping that SB 1214 passes and students with valid CCW permits will finally be able to carry on the three university campuses in this state…
