The professor�s justification is that the interesting material is also the material more likely to generate murderous differences of opinions in his students. The boring one, so his theory goes, should avoid this problem. �The topics on the first syllabus that get my students so excited are also the topics that arouse the most passion,� he writes. �And, if some of our state legislators have their way, passion is the last thing I�ll want to provoke in my students.� Then he poses his own philosophical question, �Why teach topics that increase the probability, however small, of provoking an unstable but legally carrying shooter?� |

This same tired argument has been made every time a state loosens restrictions on concealed carry. All the predictions of doom, gloom and mayhem have NEVER happened -- anywhere.
This guy is nothing more than an anti gun liberal with an agenda. It always amazes me that supposedly educated people can be so ignorant. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight. And it is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. � Justice William O. Douglas, US Supreme Court (1939-75) |
