Well this was a big help.

http://www.armedcampuses.org

Your Google fu is weak.

Umpqua Community College is a posted Gun Free Zone.

From their security page of their website:
With the college security page stating the following:

“Possession, use, or threatened use of firearms (including but not limited to BB guns, air guns, water pistols, and paint guns) ammunition, explosives, dangerous chemicals, or any other objects as weapons on college property, except as expressly authorized by law or college regulations, is prohibited.

Possession of knives with a blade longer than 4” is prohibited.

Brandishing weapons is prohibited.

Misuse of personal defensive weapons – e.g., pepper spray, etc. is prohibited. The owner is responsible and accountable for any misuse of these devices.”


How the hell did anyone get a gun there, it is a gun free zone dammit!

Didn't anyone read the website?

This must not have actually happened. Guns aren't allowed in gun free zones. This is just silly. They must have meant sports, cuz sports you can have in a gun free zone. But you can't have guns in a gun free zone, so as when the simplest answer is most likely the right one, no one got shot, because there are no guns in a gun free zone.

If this is a public school then concealed carry on the grounds of the school is expressly authorized by law.

Um, no.

The school only allows certain people to carry.

Doesn't matter what the school allows. Like I said, if it is a public school, then under Oregon law concealed carry license holders are allowed to carry on campus.

Pretty sure state law trumps school policy.

If a private school, then the school can set its own rules.

Possibly one of the most tasteless post I've seen here, despite the expectation that a screen name like yours could produce anything different.

You must not read much of the posts in this forum then.

Laws Concerning Carrying Concealed Firearms on Campus in Oregon





Oregon-guns

In an Oregon Court of Appeals case (2011), three judges concluded that Oregon public colleges and universities no longer have authority to ban weapons on the physical grounds of a campus. Each school does however, have discretion as to whether to permit concealed handguns inside buildings, dormitories, event centers, and classrooms. Private colleges and universities may still prohibit weapons throughout the entire campus including grounds.

On March, 2, 2012, the Oregon Higher Education Board voted unanimously to ban weapons in all seven state colleges and universities.

You need to read the whole thing . . .

As of August 21, 2013, no private or public universities, colleges, or community colleges permit weapons inside of buildings. No private universities permit weapons on campus grounds.



It's at the bottom in bold.

So, from that link, 290 deaths from mass killings ( 4 or more people killed on 1 incident) since 2006, 218 from shootings. That works out to just over 24 a year.

There have been more deaths, so far just this year, in Oregon alone, from traffic fatalities than from 9 years of mass killings.

We, as a society, accept the number of traffic fatalities without a second thought. But, a much smaller number mass killings and there is outrage.

Seems like an emotional response, not a logical response. And that fits from looking at all the gun debates, short on logic, long on emotion.
