Erik Gilbert, a professor at Arkansas State University, writes that his support for campus carry laws stems from his belief in the right to self-defense, not because he believes students should be expected to stop a mass shooting. “If legally permitted faculty members or students want to carry a gun to school because they think, rightly or wrongly, that it makes them safer, it’s hard to see why anyone else has a legitimate interest in preventing them from doing so,” he writes. Arkansas is one of the states that recently legalized campus carry.
