Keep Guns Out of Our Schools

Last September, the Oregon Court of Appeals invalidated a longstanding administrative rule that prohibited guns on Oregon college campuses, finding that the rule was preempted by a state statute. As a result, people with concealed handgun licenses can now carry loaded, hidden handguns on Oregon's public college campuses.

Gun extremists are insisting that they are also entitled to bring their loaded, hidden handguns into high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout Oregon. They have, for example, already strong-armed the Newberg School District into dropping its ban on guns in schools.

Armed civilians in our schools will put our faculty and students in greater danger of being shot. Permitting guns in our schools will make them less safe.
