Anyone with a concealed carry gun permit is currently allowed to carry on the campus of all state-supported universities and colleges. A bill will soon arrive on Governor Hickenlooper's desk that will add campuses to the list of places where concealed carry is banned, like K through 12 schools. There is more to this than the safety issue resulting from a mix of guns and often highly emotional young adults. A major issue is the toxic atmosphere that would ensue if guns might be present during heated classroom debates or when an emotional student is given a failing grade. The classroom is no place for guns. The governor should sign this bill.

Studies have repeatedly shown that alcohol is far more dangerous than cannabis, and yet it is legal to use for recreation. Meanwhile, people who could benefit from its use such as cancer patients, epileptics, and people who suffer from post traumatic stress disorder face prosecution for its possession. There is great revenue to be obtained for the state from regulation and taxation of cannabis, as well as allowing our law enforcement to focus on violent crime and undercutting the profits of criminal activities. History has taught us that the folly of prohibition only acted as a boon for organized crime.

Vermont has one of the lowest gun crime rates in the country for a reason, criminals do not cross the border. Disarming citizens will only allow criminals to have a new hunting ground.

Several years ago, after having purchased a small business after engaging in all due diligence recommended by my attorney and accountant, I nonetheless lost approximately half a million dollars – my home and all my savings – due to what five attorneys who reviewed my case confirmed was clearly a case of fraud that I would almost certainly have won in a court of law. I could not prosecute, however, because I no longer had the money to pay an attorney, and no one would take the case on contingency because the numerous asset protection laws currently in place for those convicted usually allow very little if any part of a monetary judgment to actually be collectible. I am now a mid-50s single parent living paycheck to paycheck in a poor economy – no more home, retirement fund or college fund for my child - and I am far from the only individual who has experienced this type of loss with no practical recourse.
