Yeah he's a pussy because a student brought in what has not been determined to be either a real or fake gun...yeah I'm sure you would have just been comfortable sitting there.
Let me relay two incidents to you..both real.
One happened to me another to a friend during high school.
LUnch is over and the drama room fills up and my friend Jeff is sitting in the front row.
Well one of the students walks up to the front of the room and says he has a piece he wants to do his piece on "life." Opens up a bag pulls out a pistol puts it to his head and kills himself in front of the entire clas.
This was Arlington, Texas around 1985, 86.
Now fast forward a number of years later I am managing for Taco Bell and talking to the girl who's working the drive thru. The next customer pulls up and it's a few kids and as she opens the window a gun comes up.
As we are both diving to the ground and I am pushing the panic button...I realize there is the telltale orange piece in the barrel of the gun signifying it's a toy..they got a good laugh.
The police arrived and after explaining what had happened they still arrested him it was a state felony...he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge but the point is....how is anyone to know what the fuck is going on?
The student should have maybe discussed it with the professor first..letting him know his intentions and whether or not it was a real gun or not...then at least there was some comfort in knowing whether or not someone would be harmed.
It's not about being a "liberal," or a conservative...it's about common sense.
You don't bring a gun into a public place fake or not pretending it is real without causing some kind of distress.
Here in Nevada they have an open carry law. I can strap on a belt and a six shooter like inthe old west and walk down the street...however if I cause a disturbance by doing this and scaring people I can still be arrested for that.
Anyway...people just need to use some common sense...stupid fucking UCLA student.
