Since you are a gun owner and enjoy collecting then should I be concerned about you? When are you planning on loosing your marbles and going on a shooting spree? Since you already own the guns I don't see how a lack of a CCW permit is going to stop you?
Much to the chagrin and disbelief of the anti-gun people shall issue CCW laws have shown to cause NO INCREASE in crime or problems from the enactment of the laws.
Again, to all the people who are afraid of guns, don't like them, don't like the idea that people can carry thats just too bad and a bit unrealistic. There are CCW permit holders around you EACH AND EVERY DAY. You just don't know it. The guy next to you on the train, your coworker, that little old lady at the supermarket, and each and every liquor and convenience store clerk, etc. The guns are already there and hey, guess what? The gloom and doom you are refering to isn't happening.
Regarding the maturity of college students and CCW it should be a non-issue. The process of getting a CCW will shake out the immature quite handily. Most CCW states require 21years of age. Are you now going to tell me that 21 is not enough? We already send 18yr olds to foreign countries armed with rifles to KILL people even though they can't drink a beer legally. When is one mature enough? 30? 40? When the gov't says we are?
The report is the typical newsmedia over reaction to the one state that happens to allow CCW on their campuses. Whats the big deal? Has anyone been shot? Is lawlessness breaking out in Utah? Nope, it isn't. Much ado about nothing. As usual.
