Student group accuses Texas Christian U. of "political correctness" about guns

The student group organizing a discussion about the Second Amendment has publicly criticized the university for restrictions placed on the promotion of the event, as well as on the raffle prize.

In a post on the Young Americans for Freedom website, Kathleen D’Urso, president of the university’s YAF chapter, wrote that she was “shocked by the degree of political correctness shown by administrators on this issue.”

However, university officials said they were trying to send a consistent message to students about firearms on campus.

Bay Buchanan, who was U.S. Treasurer during the Reagan administration, is set to speak Wednesday evening.  According to the organization's website, the goal of YAF is "to advocate for the ideas of limited government, individual freedom, free enterprise, traditional values and a strong national defense."

Initially, YAF wanted to promote the event with advertisements that interspersed images of Reagan, Buchanan and an antique shotgun. D’Urso said the administrators of the TCU Facebook page wouldn’t post the ad because of “gun references.”

YAF's request for permission to raffle off a concealed handgun training class to anyone over the age of 21 was not approved by the Brown-Lupton University Union.

Natalie Boone, assistant director of the BLUU, said there wasn’t an issue with YAF raffling something off. The issue was with the potential message that was being sent.

Sounds like some places in TX have heard of neither the 1st nor the 2nd amendments

Has Mexas become the new battleground in the culture war with the Left? Yes!

Despite the name, TCU really is not very Christian as a school, they are known as. Massive PC party school.

They had problems with the "Gun References"!?! How on earth are you supposed to have a discussion about the 2nd Amendment without mentioning guns? Typical nonsense from politically correct academics.

Hoplophobic Marxist hypocrites. File suit. The only other thing these leftist weasels fear is the loss of unearned money from their precious budgets.
