Politicians are responsible by dint of vexation of the law. I've always thought of a No Guns Policy as a tortious interference. Oh, well.
My argument - which may soon appear on News With Views dot com this weekend - is that a lawsuit will ensue and new law will come of it. Private property is a right, of course, but one does not check their own civil rights at the door as a condition of entrance. I've argued that adult students do not check their second amendment right at the Admissions Office as a condition of attending college. One may cooperate and surrender first amendment details to go to college, but the second amendment is absolute where the first is not.
Colleges boast how they assume responsibility for student safety by blocking guns, but so many campuses affirm second amendment rights and impeach the no guns policy.
I'm hoping a lawsuit will illuminate these issues and meet with substantive changes in repealing gun control. I'm looking forward to legal actions filed against the theater for their signage and its causal relationship (if any) in the carnage by way of interference in a right-to-carry state.
