Texas considers allowing students to carry guns at public universities

Now this sounds like a bad idea.

From the Washington Post:

One of the bill's most ardent opponents is University of Texas Chancellor William McRaven, a retired U.S. Navy admiral who organized the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in 2011. Earlier this year, he sent a letter to legislators warning them such a law would make campuses "less-safe."

"There is great concern that the presence of handguns, even if limited to licensed individuals age 21 or older, will lead to an increase in both accidental shootings and self-inflicted wounds," he wrote, according to the Texas Tribune.
