RENO -- Amanda Collins doesn't know whether she could have used her handgun to stop the man who sexually assaulted her in a University of Nevada, Reno parking garage. She never got the opportunity to find out.
....

Three months later, Biela kidnapped and killed another student, Brianna Denison. He was sentenced to death last year, with sentences for attacking Collins and a third woman.

Collins is expected to testify before legislators today in favor of Senate Bill 231.

Fault with John Woods' argument is perhaps the rapists and armed robbers are not students at that campus, or are already undergoing counseling and community service for prior littering violations somewhere and aren't supposed to cross the invisible Campus safety fence .... duh. The U of H aggarvated Assault on that female recently was at "KNIFEPOINT" that person had no access to "Guns" John. The 9/11 attacks were with box cutters, not guns ... thousands died John, but why oppose people protecting themselves? nevermind, I read the psychiatrist's report on the anti-gun mentality.

Woods, a Virginia Tech student at the time of the mass shooting, said that if lawmakers across the country were interested in campus safety, they would increase access to mental health services and do more to ensure mentally ill people cannot obtain guns, not encourage students to carry weapons.

A Psychiatrist Examines The Anti-Gun Mentality
By Sarah Thompson, M.D.

"If I were to summarize this article in three sentences, they would be:

(1) People who identify themselves as "victims" harbor excessive amounts of rage at other people, whom they perceive as "not victims."

(2) In order psychologically to deal with this rage, these "victims" utilize defense mechanisms that enable them to harm others in socially acceptable ways, without accepting responsibility or suffering guilt, and without having to give up their status as "victims."

(3) Gun owners are frequently the targets of professional victims because gun owners are willing and able to prevent their own victimization. "

======================

(Hurting others or allowing others to be hurt .... by proxy, by disallowing them to protect themselves.)

================
Condition "X" sounds safer.

Condition "X" has allowed, numerous times, people to be shot on campuses

Therefore, keep condition "X"
