Texas Campus Carry Law

The intended audience of the article is for the people who agree with the Texas campus carry law. Tyler Jones is a credible source because he is a student and he is able to argue his thought on the Texas campus carry law. The article “Why I changed my mind on bringing guns to Texas colleges” written by Tyler Jones a student at Stephen F. Austin State University, talks about why gun carry on a college campus shouldn’t be allowed. He supported this law until he became a college student and became aware of how safe it is to allow gun carry on a college campus. He brings up the Las Vegas shooting and the recent shooting at Texas Tech University which is what really opened up his eyes to the Texas campus carry law. His logic for this is that kids get anxious and stressed and they always have something going on up in their heads sometimes it can be really negative things. If you give them the okay to carry a gun on campus one day they might snap and the only thing they know to turn to is their gun and we all know where that can lead too. I agree with Tyler because I’m a college student and it scares me that maybe one day a student might go crazy and turn to their gun and all I have to protect me is what I bring to school: books. I grew up in a conservative family like Tyler, and I think it’s fine to own a gun, but I do not agree with the Texas campus carry law for the sake of my own safety and others safety.
