The moral authority of and respect for the Pope is a gamechanger on an issue like this.

I am a faculty member in a state school in Texas. My lectures hold up to 250 students. The thought of teaching a lecture in front of loaded guns frightens me. It should frighten parents, friends, and loved ones as well. School is challenging enough without this stress! On top of that, there is no requirement for a mental health screening to own a gun, and this bill could lead to dire consequences. Let your voice be heard. Protect our teachers and students. SAY NO to Texas Campus Carry!!! (This opinion reflects my own and not that of the campus I work for)

I am a graduate student and military veteran in Nevada. There are campus police who are armed and are available to protect students. More guns on campus leads to more danger for all people involved. As a student, I don't want to have to worry about other students who may or may not be armed in what is otherwise a safe place. This bill is absurd and should be defeated. http://www.reviewjournal.com/leg-edu/campus-carry-gun-bill-could-be-sent-assembly-floor-soon

Gun violence: It's personal. My stepfather was murdered--shot dead--and it was devastating to our family. Have you been personally affected by gun violence? I hope not, and let's keep it that way. Say NO to the proposed legislation that would allow guns on college campuses in Nevada.

If you can believe it, Delaware law doesn't prohibit someone who is subject to a restraining order from owning, possessing, or purchasing guns. A bill introduced in the Senate would close this loophole, protecting women and families from gun violence. But, our legislators need to hear from us that this important bill will save lives and must pass.

The House is considering a bill, already passed by the Senate, to prohibit anyone with a restraining order against them or anyone convicted of criminal domestic violence from ownership of a firearm for 5 to 10 years, depending on the severity of their crime. This is a necessary, common-sense step to protect domestic violence victims from further harm.

We must help women of domestic violence avoid being murdered by their spouse or their significant other.

I feel strongly that we need to do as much as we can to protect victims of domestic abuse from becoming murder victims, as well. We read all too often of entire families being murdered before the abuser commits suicide.

This is an important issue that needs to be addressed before we lose any more sisters and daughters to preventable violence.

To feel safe in my community and everywhere I must go to go about my daily business, it is essential for our community, our state and our country to be safer. We need to focus on making our lives free of fear. Please join me in working to make our families safer in this era of lack of equality and justice brought on by decades of neglect of our Congress and the Executive branch.

I'm a single Mom. I live in a "city" in New Hampshire. We are not in a metro here. The New Hampshire Senate passed Senate Bill 116, which would repeal the licensing requirement for carrying a concealed pistol or revolver. In other words, you could carry a concealed weapon without a permit. Sen. Sharon Carson, R-Londonderry, said, "This bill recognizes that the simple act of putting on a coat should not require a permit from the state." Really?! How is that to same? Please sign this to send a message that we want gun safety in New Hampshire--not the opposite! Gov. Hassan must follow through on her commitment to veto this dangerous bill.

Legitimate reasons to carry a concealed weapon exist, but it seems common sense to require a permit to do so.
