NRA Wants Guns On Idaho Campuses

A National Rifle Association lobbyist says the guns-right lobby will attempt to persuade Idaho lawmakers next year to allow people to carry concealed weapons on college campuses without a permit.

Earlier this year lawmakers decided to leave it to university leaders to decide how to regulate firearms/AP. More here.

Question: I still think this is a dumb idea, even after the recent murder-suicide at the University of Idaho. How about you?
