CarpeDiem3 0 #1 November 26, 2012 University sets up special 'gun dorms' where students are allowed to keep weapons... but NO ONE applies to live there Quote: "Students at Colorado University have been told that if they want to hold weapons on campus they must live together in segregated 'gun dormitories'. But the move to create the exclusive accommodation blocks at the university's Boulder and Colorado Springs campuses has failed to attract any takers in the three months since it came into effect..." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2238535/University-sets-special-gun-dorms-students-allowed-weapons--NO-ONE-applies-live-there.html?ito=feeds-newsxml There's still hope!

davjohns 1 #3 November 26, 2012 What if someone threw a gun party, and no one came? You can safely presume that I have passed from this life...along with most of the people I know. But be assured I will not leave my guns to you. :-)I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At my university, dorms were only guaranteed to and commonly used by first year students. And few would move in after the school year had already started. The popularity, or lack thereof, will only be meaningfully measured in the springtime when juniors make their next year plans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually care about the tens of thousands of people being shot to death with guns every year. You should too. I actually have a genuine opinion against those guns, and if you haven't noticed that by now, you aren't paying enough attention. Are you sure you really want me posting on other subjects too? If I drive you this crazy about guns, just imagine what I could do to your blood pressure if I branched out into other subjects. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaVinci 0 #18 November 27, 2012 QuoteThere's still hope! Yes there is still hope that people will quit blaming the object and instead look at the users. The fact that no one applied does not mean much. Most people living in dorms are under the age to carry a gun. By the time a person is in their 2-3-4th year of school, they normally do not live in on campus housing. When will your kind realize that a gun is an object?

You're not driving me crazy in fact you're not even mildly irritating me, I've seen this game played before by other far more skilled than you little fishy.

CarpeDiem3 0 #20 November 27, 2012 QuoteWhen will your kind realize that a gun is an object? Who is "my kind"? A nuclear bomb is an object too, but that doesn't mean that everyone should have one. Humans are imperfect, they're fallible, they screw up, and sometimes they turn just plain evil. So it's not a good idea to arm them with things that they can use to kill others.

SkyDekker 1,465 #24 November 27, 2012 QuoteThe kind that blames an object for the act of a person. So you are in favour of allowing open containers of alcohol in a car? Are you in favour of allowing a person to drink their first beer of the day while they are driving? Those are all restrictions on possession of an object to prevent the act of a person. Are you in favour of changing those laws? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
