Maybe colleges can put up "rape free zone" signs next to the "gun free zone" signs to better protect students.

(Just kidding).

Amanda Collins is a hero for going public and fighting the good fight.

[saltlane]

I believe that evry citizen should have the right to protect themselves.

[kakasanti]

18 and 19 years old should be allowed to get their permits. Last time i checked, they were fighting in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan with more sophisticated weapons compared to handguns. All in the name of freedom for foreigners, why can't they protect themselves when they are home. If you're old enough to vote, you should be able to carry responsibly.

There are millions of us, we should unite like senior citizens with the AARP and vote politicians who oppose the 2nd amendment out of office .

Im so sick of hearing this stuff. Why can we not protect ourselves everywhere we go??? If you are not going to allow us to protect ourselves in certain areas then you damn well better have someone there to do it for us that can be everywhere!!! This is ridiculous and should have never happened as this young lady was ready to protect herself but you took that away from her therefor doing more harm then good. SHAME ON YOU!!!! Stay strong ladies and gents we will one day get our rights back!!!

[tweaker214]

She is so brave and well spoken. Thanks for doing this!

If there is another Brianna Denison-type case on campus where the victim could have defended herself, but legally could not, then I say that the blood is on the hands of William Horne.

The 2nd Amendment does not grant us the right to keep and bear arms. Rather, it is a guarantee that the right we already possess shall not be infringed. And yet it has been infringed by Horne and countless other anti-gunners. Let’s keep working to get them out of power where they can do no more harm

[InFineRegemus]

Amanda has been assaulted three times.

Once, by the monster who attacked her.

Again, by the system that she had to fight in order to carry a gun for self-defense.

And yet again, by William Horne (Democrat, Las Vegas) a politician who stopped the Campus Carry bill from leaving his committee.
