I just hope you see that I am not arguing against arming anyone or exploring more and better ways to protect students, but only to be careful of how it's done, considering the studies and peculiar situations of campus life. Carrying should be a privilege as well as a right with all the responsibilities inherent in that. Since this discussion originated in large part because of the shooting at VT, I thought it would be interesting to look at the requirements for concealed carry in Virginia. Take a class, NRA, military, security guard, police training, etc. Go to the Circuit court of your residence. Ask the Clerk of the Court for a "Concealed Weapon Permit Application." Fill out the application form and bring driver's license, DD-214 (if prior military). While the speed that each jurisdiction processes the permit application differs, by state law the permit must be issued or denied within 45 days of application. So, firearms education is required before a permit will be issued. Also, the applicant has to be at least 21-years old.
