[QUOTE="ronin0829, post: 1059681, member: 8693"] First off I want to state that I am a Police Officer at a University in Oklahoma and I am an NRA certified pistol instructor. I dont have a problem with properly trained, competent people with a valid concealed carry permit carrying concealed firearms on campus. Thats where the issue is. Oklahoma concealed carry training lacks a lot. My girlfriend took the class last year. It lasted about 3 hours, no targets to shoot at, the instructor said load the gun, point it in a safe direction, and pull the trigger a few times. That was it! If this law passes thats the level of trained people I will have to deal with. Currently there is already a provision in the law to allow a person to carry a concealed weapon on a university campus. Title 21, Chapter 53, Section 1277, Paragraph D: D. No person in possession of any concealed handgun pursuant to the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act shall be authorized to carry the handgun into or upon any college or university property, except as provided in this subsection. For purposes of this subsection, the following property shall not be construed as prohibited for persons having a valid concealed handgun license: 3. Any property authorized by the written consent of the college or university president, provided the written consent is carried with the handgun and the valid concealed handgun license while on college or university property. In the five years I have been employed with the University you know how many people have gone to the Presidents office and asked? None. I know because I asked his secretary. Maybe more people should just try to follow the rules that are already in place instead of having to make new rules. [/QUOTE]
