Texas College Students Can Now Carry Gun On Campus, Prof Wears Armour To Protest by Explorers(m): 6:42am On Aug 09, 2017
A Texas professor is taking a stand against the state's campus carry law by wearing protective combat gear to classes he is teaching.

San Antonio College professor Charles K. Smith teaches geography and went to his class wearing a camouflaged bulletproof vest and helmet because he says he doesn't feel safe.


'It definitely makes me feel uneasy that there are more firearms on campus than there should be,' Smith said.


'Dressing this way was just a statement on how I felt.'

Campus Carry became law state law in 2015 and officially implemented into Texas community colleges on August 1.



It allows individuals with a conceal license to carry a handgun on college premises.




'I realize students were carrying guns on campus illegally, but now it's legal to do so, it increases the chances of something happening,' said Smith.


He conceded that nobody had , who also acknowledged that no one had pulled a gun on him in his 10 years at the college.


'When they got mad at me, they had to go home to get the gun and had time to cool off.


Now they will have it with them,' he added.


Smith says that his main concern is that an argument could break out and one of the participants having a gun.


'My assumption is that you will have more people carrying guns that will lead to problems.


It always has,' he said.


'There is nothing on this planet worth a human life.'

If this law is ever Passed in Nigeria, many lecturers frustrating students will suffer for it grin

A student goes to the notice board to check his/her result. There's a Carryover in that 3 units course after several nights of intense study!
He/she suffers a meltdown. Insane anger builds up! He/she searches for the lecturer.
Pulls the trigger! undecided Rip

Explorers can you give us reasons why there's a law to carry gun legally within the school premises.

Who are they hunting ?


And dis law would never work in Nigeria. It would just look like the government has introduced a violent cult where every student must be part of
