Sun editorial about concealed weapons off base

February 29, 2008 - 1:00am

In yesterday’s editorial “Way Off Target,” The Sun made several naïve assertions about the issue of concealed carry on campus.

It stated that “weapons of intimidation” have no place in the “open society” that is the university, marked by “free inquiry, unhindered debate, and giving full credence” to all opinions. The insinuation seems to be that, if allowed on campus legally, guns would be used to intimidate those with whom we disagreed. This hypothetical is completely and absolutely baseless, and represents a much larger flaw in thinking.
