“Separate but Equal” Housing for University of Colorado Gun Owners?
Posted on August 28, 2012 byAmmoland

.."The university system is apparently planning to house students who have Right-to-Carry permits in separate dormitories on its Boulder and Colorado Springs campuses. Guns would be prohibited in other dormitories, as well as at football games, concerts, and other ticketed events."..

Cool, a party dorm!

The "separate but equal" concept is a crock of poop.
Just ask any black person over the age of 50.

It's just an excuse to legitimize discrimination.

As I understand it, there isn't a specific dorm for gun owners. Rather, students living on campus with guns will be required to live in grad student housing with students ages 21 and up. They will be required to own a safe and store their firearms in it when they aren't carrying. They can CC on campus, excluding sporting events.

If that's the case, I don't see the problem.

If that's the case, then it's not too bad.

Less crime and a polite society, plus plenty of 21 year olds for beer runs.

Range trips.
Airsoft in the halls.
Hoppes #9 instead of stinky bongwater.

What's the logic in disallowing carry at sporting events?

[glockman66]

To me, this is just one more way the libs can demonize gun owners and guns in the eyes of the unknowing/uncaring/uninformed sheeple that get all their "news/lib propaganda" from the leftwing MSM.

How so?

JBnTX made a pretty good start at it and then the gun owners being set apart, isolated, etc. would enhance this type of thinking. The lib MSM has already put a stigma/demonization on anyone that supports the 2nd Amendment and gun ownership. Very few news casts put guns/self defense in a good light. Some examples would be NBC's altering the Zimmerman tapes, ABC's not enhancing the tapes to show Zimmerman's injuries (until they had to), etc. Most lib MSM network TV shows always have a condescending tone to anything related to gun ownership/self-defense with a firearm. There is also the steady stream of anti-gun & anti-2nd Amendment lib dem. legislation that pretty well shows to that which I am speaking about in the demonizing of guns and gun owners. The sheeple, who make no effort to inform/educated themselves, swallow this lib Kool-Aid and believe it to be the Gospel truth.

Regardless of the ethical considerations -- if this plan is carried out, I definitely see where the safest part of the campus will be.

I'd be okay with it. I wouldn't want to be housed with a bunch of panty-waisted lefty hoplophobes.

Why should any student be required to identify themselves as CC card holders?

If a student chooses to get a CC card after school starts, is that student now required to report and relocate? If there are no rooms, what is the plan?

What is the purpose of housing with 21 year old students? Are they expected to intervene somehow in the event of a disturbance? What exactly are their roles and responsibilities? Do the 21 year olds make some sort of implicit agreement in this scenario?

Paint it how you like, separate but equal is not equal. Equal is equal.

That's one possibility. The other possibility is now the criminals know where all the guns are stored and where to attempt to steal them. I also see in a few years statistics being used to show how one side has more AD/ND, firearms issues than the other side... But I'm more a pessimist and don't trust the progressive/liberals that typically run the schools...

If I was one of them, I'd be thrilled. A college dorm where you are pretty much immune to crime and everybody is fairly conservative? You'd have to be some kind of idiot to argue that you want to be mixed in the the hippie dopers so you can have "equality."

Maybe the problem is with the "hippie dopers" being allowed safe haven on campus.

Of the two behaviors, drug use is the one that is illegal.

[ChuteTheMall]

Off-campus housing is more fun anyway. No resident advisors other than the local police.

I'd love to see them have to designate additional dorms due to high demand. Some of those granolas up there also like having guns for when they go hiking and camping. Both campuses are right next to national parks and mountains.
