Moonbat Professor: Talking About Guns And Self Defense Is A Crime
Again proving that academics live in a make believe world,
“A professor in Connecticut reported one of her students to the police after he gave a class presentation on why students and teachers should be allowed to carry concealed weapons on campus. Now, free speech activists say the professor’s actions are what really need to be investigated.
Last October, John Wahlberg and two classmates at Central Connecticut State University gave an oral presentation for a communications class taught by Professor Paula Anderson. The assignment was to discuss a “relevant issue in the media,†and the students presented their view that the death toll in the April 2007 Virginia Tech shooting massacre would have been lower if professors and students had been carrying guns.
That night, police called Wahlberg, a 23-year-old senior, and asked him to come to the station. When he arrived, they read off a list of firearms that were registered in his name and asked where he kept them. Guns are strictly prohibited on the CCSU campus and residence halls, but Wahlberg says he lives 20 miles off-campus and keeps his gun collection locked up in a safe. No further action was taken by police or administrators.”
Paula Anderson likely believes that the First Amendment only applies to her beliefs and that the Second Amendment should be entirely ignored. It is easy to blame the police for participating in this travesty, but it is probable the hysterical Professor embellished Wahlberg’s presentation.
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.â€
Somehow, the shortest member of the bill of rights is the most difficult for liberals to understand. “The people”, in their minds mean the government. “Not be infringed”, means unlimited restrictions, and “militia”, once commonly understood to mean every able bodied free man, has morphed into the National Guard, a Federal agency that did not remotely exist at the time of authorship. And then they ignore the clear words of Madison, the author, who explained the Second Amendment was to prevent the seizure of guns from individual citizens.

The Second Amandment states:
“A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
That’s it; that’s the whole thing, the full text, unabridged.
Now let’s just change this a little, without modifying the basic structure:
“A well-educated electorate, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and read books, shall not be infringed.” (Thanks to J. Neil Schulman)
I doubt very much that you will find it reasonable, let alone moral, to interpret this sentence to mean that only a well-educated electorate has the right to keep and read books!
