It feels that much better that I just voted while I'm sitting in the business building. I wish I would have know that speech was happening yesterday because I would have gone and voiced my opinion.

Thanks for the link.

In the second video, the campus police lieutenant looks down her nose at people with HCPs as "untrained".

Guess she doesn't get the whole "first responder" idea. You can email her at: emilym@utk.edu

Lieutenant, YOU are part of the problem.

Ah, the UTK SGA - it remains one of the best little socialist orgs in the state.

Even though capitalistic Dads are paying the bills for the most part.

From article:

"It's going to slow down our response time to determine who is the bad guy and who is the good guy," said Lt. Emily Simerly, a UTPD spokeswoman.

Yeah, Emily, the good guys are pretty easy to determine right now in college shootings -- they're the dead ones.

100% agree, let me carry my gun, I'll assume the risk of being shot by UTPD. Chances are they'd miss anyway

I just had a really interesting conversation with my professor about this. I went to his office to talk about a test and there was a sign laying on his desk that said "guns cause a hostile work environment" or something like that. It was printed and passed out to all the professors by some lady on faculty.

I wasn't going to bring up the topic but my prof asked me what I thought about it. He seemed really interested in what I had to say and really appreciated my passion about it. He originally voted against this but was now realizing that it may not be so bad after all. Very interesting!

LEO's are highly trained and always safe with firearms. Like this guy:

Guns don't cause a hostile work environment. Trying to infringe on other people's rights creates a hostile work environment.

Voted. % are still the same.

THIS! So she really means that with ALL THAT TRAINING, they STILL can't figure out who the bad/good guys are. And all HCP folks probably "train" at the range more than they do....blah blah blah...... I willingly go to work everyday, knowing that I may have to give my life to protect my college students, but I'd sure like to have a chance to save them and myself! Please, God, let some common sense prevail over these socio-commies!
