What I Brought for 'Show and Tell'

A student at a U.S. college may get a reprimand instead of a grade for a speech about weapons at school that included a relative pulling out 19 guns as visual aids.

The student intended her speech at Motlow State Community College to show how easily guns can be concealed and brought on campus. During her presentation at the McMinnville campus Tuesday, a male relative revealed the 19 guns he had hidden on his body and in his backpack.
Can't have students proving their theses when they contradict official dogma, now, can we? If we allow such heresy to spread, why, who knows what frightful truths will be revealed?

Of course we cannot say that there was no danger simply because guns were on campus, oh no!

This has nothing whatever to do with reality. The danger is that the "gun free zone" policy will be shown to be ridiculous on its face.

That cannot be allowed in the eyes of "the only ones.." the concept of gun free zones is sacrosanct. What is at stake here is dogma; not whether there was any real danger.

The dogma of guns are bad cannot be shown to be foolish. The emperor cannot be shown to be naked.
