Hand Guns in The Hands Of Students

    On Tuesday May 3, 2011, the "Lupita89 " blog posted up an article titled "Thus There is No More Bill"   by Sandra Rangel. The article is about a bill that is up for vote by the chamber and lets students bring guns to school grounds for protection. The gun carrying law will exclude private institutions. The guns would have to be concealed or tucked away underneath the persons clothes.
    Sandra's intended audience are mainly students at public institutions. She say's that she would not like to see this law pass because this would make her feel unsafe on school grounds knowing that student's are walking around school armed. I would have to disagree with her because they are not going to issue a license to anyone. They would first have to go thru a course to get a license to carry the weapon. Than the person would have to purchase the gun. This means that the store would have to do a background check on the individual. So this means that people with bad backgrounds would not get a license. Plus if a person would want to do something bad he would just do it cause hand guns can be canceled with or without a license.
    This article was interesting to read because I own a gun and I am thinking of going thru the course. Its good to read about people's opinion on the whole carrying a concealed weapon subject. Like I said before I would be very comfortable with people carrying guns on school grounds. 

Guns

      I just read an article that was published May 3, 2011 on Statesman.com titled, "House backs bill to allow guns in cars at work " by Tim Eaton. This article is about guns being allowed in the cars of workers at their workplace parking lot.They are saying it should be legal because their car is like their little extension to their home. They say that a lot of people in Texas are hunters and sometimes forget a gun in their truck. If they do forget their guns in their car they shouldn't be worried about being fired for it.  But there is some people that say it should be up to the employer to make that decision.  
     I think that they should be able to keep their guns in their cars because it is their property. There wouldn't be any harm to anyone if there guns were stored in their car. As long as their guns are put away and not in view from the outside, it should be allowed. I also think if they do allow them to have their guns in their car, they shouldn't be allowed to showcase the gun in any way to other people. I do agree that people that work in the oil and gas industry shouldn't be able to store their guns in their cars because if a gun misfire, it can create a devastating explosion. This is one of the places that I think guns shouldn't be able to be stored in cars. In conclusion, as a gun owner myself, I think I should be able to leave my gun stored in my car as long as it is not visible and I wouldn't mind it if others did the same.
