Professor Called Police After Student Presentation on Campus Gun Control
Quote:
For CCSU student John Wahlberg, a class presentation on campus violence turned into a confrontation with the campus police due to a complaint by the professor.
On October 3, 2008, Wahlberg and two other classmates prepared to give an oral presentation for a Communication 140 class that was required to discuss a “relevant issue in the media”. Wahlberg and his group chose to discuss school violence due to recent events such as the Virginia Tech shootings that occurred in 2007.
Shortly after his professor, Paula Anderson, filed a complaint with the CCSU Police against her student. During the presentation Wahlberg made the point that if students were permitted to conceal carry guns on campus, the violence could have been stopped earlier in many of these cases. He also touched on the controversial idea of free gun zones on college campuses.
Wow.... just..... wow. It is a shame that such a mentally disadvantaged human being is employed to educate others..... about communication no less! Maybe someone should communicate the purpose of education as well as the Bill of Rights.

No they need to know about something first to teach it....
Wahlberg received a message stating that the campus police “requested his presence”. Upon entering the police station, the officers began to list off firearms that were registered under his name, and questioned him about where he kept them.
My reply was...where is your warrant, where is my lawyer

I'd be complaining directly to the Dean and lawyer up.
