Arming Students Will Not Help

Anyone arguing that allowing students and/or faculty to carry weapons would protect a campus threatened by gun violence needs to read this:

A University of Idaho student grabbed his pistol and ran outside to see if anyone needed help when he heard shooting near his apartment on Saturday, but he ended up getting shot three times himself.

Police in Moscow, Idaho, say that the 20-year-old student, Pete Husmann, was shot in the back, neck, and thigh with a semiautomatic assault rifle, but he is expected to recover. He was among six people shot Saturday by Jason Hamilton, three of whom were killed, according to the Associated Press.

See, there was a student who owned a gun. Used it to defend himself and/or others potentially under attack. AND HE WAS WOUNDED. AND HE DIDN'T STOP THE SHOOTER.

Moron gun advocates.
