Last week in West Lafayette, a couple of guys who were drinking decided to "scare" a friend with a prank involving guns. I guess you can see where this is going... The two guys pulled guns and of course, one of the "unloaded" pistols "went off". The victim of the prank was hit in the neck, and died later from the wound. Gun pranks are never "funny" and this one has not only devastated three families (the deceased's and the two families of the guys going to jail), it's also thrown gas on the fire for anti-gun advocates to keep self defense tools out of the hands of law abiding citizens in the name of "campus safety"...even though it did NOT happen on Purdue's campus and the two with guns were NOT students.
Here are a couple of direct quotes from the news article: "University police are using the shooting as evidence to keep guns off campus" and "This is just another example of why mixing guns on a college campus is just not a good idea." ...again, this did NOT happen on a college campus and the two men who were handling the firearms in an unsafe manner were NOT even students.
There ya go antis... a freebie.
Just remember:

It never fails to amaze me that the opponents of carryng on campus ignore the fact that CCW holders in Utah have had that ability for years and there has been no "blood bath".
