Sheriff calls for guns on campus

In a recent editorial, Larimer County (Colorado) Sheriff Jim Alderden wrote, "One of the real tragedies of the situation at Virginia Tech is that misguided administrators created a gun-free zone."

Colorado State University allows students and faculty to carry concealed firearms on campus. Alderden says the last thing universities should do right now is create more gun control.

"When you create an area where law-abiding citizens can't defend themselves, it just creates a greater opportunity for those who are criminally-minded," Alderden said.

Of course, not everyone agrees with this, but I think he makes a good point.
