    Well that's pare for the course, you see them this morning? Joy said something about them (Tod & Wayne) looking like twins, well I thought Tod was going to take a swing at someone, you can almost feel the friction,I channeled down, the 2 crew is much more compatible, 5 seems to be in a pissing contest most of the time. It is entertaining though,,, as with John & Kathern, she kicks his as more often than not.

  • WABI vote fixing? - 12 years ago

    WABI, something is up!! The voting process is a little askew. Are we trying to swing the vote to support your indoctrination? SORRY BUT I CALL BS!!!!

  • Doug C. - 12 years ago

    It's our American right to bear arms, it's one of the biggest reasons we've never been invaded, the Japanese thought about it but after a little home work discovered that all them crazy Americains have guns! Take Vermont as an example: Anyone can carry a concealed weapon, you don't need a permit, thus no crime.

    If you take the course, pass the training and understand the laws and liabities, why not, criminals love unarmed prey.

    And if you don't think the permitee is up to the task sell him the new S&W 45 called the "Union Worker" It doesn't work and you can't fire it.

    Notice the vote count isn't showing up either. Makes me wonder how many people actually have voted!

  • Conservatives Rule - 12 years ago

    I just tried it from our second computer at home, and it didn't register the vote. So I tried it from my daughter's computer and that didn't register either!

    Makes me wonder if other polls have been skewed and we never knew it!

    Hey WABI moderators, we know you're out there, What's up?????

  • Conservatives Rule - 12 years ago

    Let's not go over the top here, folks. Its a legitimate question. Too bad the system is not registering votes accurately. And yes, i tried it from different computers here int he office and it's not registering YES votes! Now I have to wonder if this is a problem with WABI, or with Surveydaddy. In any event, WABI should get the problem fixed and run the poll again another day! You hear that WABI? You owe us a fair accounting!

    Now tot he question; I now part of the psychosis that is Liberalism is the irrational fear of inanimate objects, but really folks, you continually preach that the kids are our future, but you refuse to trust them. Saul has pointed out that they can lay down their lives keeping you safe, but you deny them the right to protect themselves. That's totally irrational!

    Suzanne, your entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong and baseless. Please tell us of one school shooting that occurred because of a licensed carrier. It's never happened! In fact, to spite all the dire warnings from the nay-Sayers on the left, everywhere where concealed carry has been passed has seen a DECREASE in crime! The Wild West shootouts live only in the sick, twisted minds of the Liberal psychotics hell-bent on denying us our Constitutional rights!

    MOPANG, I would be interested in why you think I haven't read the Constitution. And why you think I would benefit from re-reading it. You understand that just because someone is a Maine citizen, that does not automatically give them the right to carry a concealed weapon at college. In fact, if you knew what you were talking about, you would know that for even CCP holders, schools are off limits. Obviously you don't have a CCP! Perhaps you could benefit from the knowledge of someone who is! And a certified instructor, no less! But hey, just because I'm an instructor, don't take my word for it. READ THE BOOK! State of Maine Laws Relating to Permits to Carry Concealed Firearms, issued by the Bureau of Maine State Police!

    And likewise - Ben, it's NOT legal unless the college or University decides it will permit the carrying of concealed firearms. Some have, and have seen a decrease in crime on campus, especially physical attacks on female student!

    Now WABI, please fix the problem and re-run the poll. The outcome might still be the same, but you owe us an HONEST outcome!

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    to Molly or anyone else that voted yes like me and the vote did not register. i called Wabi and everything seem to be working ok...guess we are the minoraty.... God, its loonely at the top!

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    ben, its no up to the schools. there are federal and state laws. Again, talk to a rocket scientist and he will explain it to you. Guns and law that have to do with guns are made by the federal and state government. companies that think they can make laws are sewed and loose lots of money. you civil rights are not governed by your local tech school!

    WHY ARE OUR VOTE ON THE YES SID NOT SHOWING UP? PLEASE, IF YOU VOTED YES, SIGN ON AND COMPLAIN... THIS IS REAL BULLSHIT! TALK ABOUT CONTROLING THE MEDIA!

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    Molly ME, me too.. its not takeing the yes! can you beleive this shit!

  • Molly ME - 12 years ago

    It didn't register my Yes vote but when I try again it says it's already counted.

  • ben - 12 years ago

    It is legal, but it's up to the college...its not rocket science...

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    Question: you fu**** idiots do understand that the question is"should people that already have a permit to carry, or are other wise carring legaly, be allowed to carry on campus? these people are not teens but adults, yes Suzanne , they get drunk cause their ID says they are adults(over 21). these people can vote, smoke, join the military, have sex, and carry guns! many have familys! but you dip-shits dont think they can carry guns?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!who the fu** educated you?

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    ben, buddy, your right and wrong. first the wrong, no i am not full of anger. im just tiered of haveing to stop what im doing to go save stupid people!And why shouldnt they be allowed to carry? is it cause they are in college and only noeducated people should carry? it sounds like a lot of people fear educated people with a gun... afraid of a revolution? i mean, these are suppose to be our finest... our pride and joy..but they are too stupid to carry a gun in their learning enviroment. everywhere else, its ok, but guns go off by themseves or take over these bright minds if they are in a learning area?
    and again a "wrong " ...."actaully its up to the schools to be the decider" its not. its up to the federal and state to mandate "gun laws" remember that little group of guys, the BATF? yea, they are the one that make those calls...so, think about what your saying and why. we are talking about college where 87% are adults and 56% are over 21!and now with so many people comeing back from the "service", there has never been a more Gun educated popullation in our colleges! it ridiculous that the government lets you carry a gun open or concealed but god forbid its near a area that has been repeatly atacked by nuts!(who had a gun)

  • ben - 12 years ago

    Wow saul you are full of anger...and god no they shouldnt be allowed to carry guns, in my opinion, actaully its up to the schools to be the decider....

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    Suzanne , im going to apolagize before i say it, so here it goes. people, im sorry my tolleranse for stupid, ignorant, dont read the facts and have no idea WTF they are talking about people, is very low. thank you.
    Suzanne your a fucken idiot and you should avoid letting people know that if you plan on haveing sex. if you do have sex, please dont reproduce!
    "Sure let them carry guns on school if you want to see more school shootings" please tell me how many shootings in military or police schools?not one bitch!
    "The only thing that would result from college students carrying guns would be more accidents and murders." really? why? cause all college kids are idiots? is that why we get our police and military officers from college students? so why do we let them drive or have a knife or dangerous chemicals?
    "Most of the students want to party and get drunk; through some guns in with that and you are asking for a big mistake!" really? i thought most whent to get a education? did you go to college? didnt think so, and i dont think you have ever fired a gun either so shut the fuck up!, i meant, get educated, sorry, my finger(sameone i use on the triger, has a mind of its own)
    "Just my opinion" thats right! cause you think you have the right to voice it! right? WRONG! just cause you think something,or feel something it does not mean you have the right to say it(ask Lapage, had to say he was sorry cause a bunch of liberals who thought he was insulting people they dont even know if they feel its a insult!) your opinion MUST be based on facts, if not, its just BULLSHIT!

  • MOPANG - 12 years ago

    OF COURSE THEY CAN CARRY A CONCEALED WEAPON AT COLLEGE IF THEY ARE A MAINE CITIZEN. READ THE CONSTITUTION. (YOU MIGHT BENEFIT FROM A READ OF IT TOO CR).

  • saul tarsus - 12 years ago

    Ok... i beg that you guys "dont start shit with me this early" and what do i get? weapon related question first thing in the morning! and by the way, if you vote "yes' it aint regestering your vote! THANK wabi!
    ok so the second amendment (it realty is talking about sword and what a gentelman was allowed to carry, wiggs versas continentals, i know im asking for it, most people dont study the subject deep enouth, but get the general idea and im happy with that) says you can carry and have...big deal!
    im going "liberal" on this on! ok.. so the constitution was writen a long time ago and they did not have the problems we have today. that is why we have amendments. so... we send kids to college and pick military and police officers from these kids but they are not smart enouth to protect themselves but we trust them to protect us? ok... we teach our kids how to avoid harm and to eat correctly, not to start shit, but if someone, starts with them, we dont want them to protect themselves but trust the same "kids but that are in uniform"to protect them! really?WTF?
    if you blow your money, the state takes care of you. if you dont want to care for yourself, the state cares for you. now why cant the state keep you safe all the time?
    people, this is simple. if everyone carrys a soda and a lunch to school and a kid "forgets his lunch" every one take something out and the stupid kid get fed.
    if everyone carrys a gun and the stupid kid pulls his/hers out, everyone gives him/her a bullet and they are all happy. its communism in its simplest form! trust me! all you liberals should jump on this! i would love to see the liberals jump on the price of guns! i agree! the gun companies are makeing to much money, the state should give you one if you cant afford one!, its not right that only the smart and rich have guns! every idiot should have one and on wensdays, for the liberals, there should be a "shoot a liberal" free pass. im telling you guys, this would work!fridays would be "shoot a crack head" and on sundays "shoot the cat lady"day.
    come on people, so your telling me that if i gave you a gun, and someone was about to kill you, rob you or rape you, you would not be resposable and protect yourself? you let your kids drive a one ton killing machine that kill more people than guns each year, but not a gun? you let your kids jump from a clift with a rubber band but not carry a gun?serious?i thought college was where you sent your kids cause you think they desserve a better future than you? and you dont want them to keep that safe? legal or not, i did carry to college and that was years ago. you kidding? ever see some of those college teachers up close?
    pluss aint a CCP only given to you if you can prove to be of sane mind and lawfull capabelaty to own said gun? but to carry a gun in a place that historicaly we have problems with nuts, no no one but a bunch of rent a cops can protect themseves! it aint working. let the college kid protect themseves! you trust the fuckers for everything else!

  • Suzanne - 12 years ago

    Sure let them carry guns on school if you want to see more school shootings. The only thing that would result from college students carrying guns would be more accidents and murders. Most of the students want to party and get drunk; through some guns in with that and you are asking for a big mistake! Just my opinion.

  • Gary - 12 years ago

    Absolutly they should be allowed to carry and protect themselves. The second amendment applies to all. Having taught concealed carry classes in this state for years, I'm surprised there hasn't been more safety awareness on our campuses. However, knowing fully well the ultra liberal indoctrination our students get here, there is little chance for them to learn the real threat level out there. So long as they learn all of the laws and responsibilities that apply to concealed carry, there should be no boundaries. Everyone, not only students, should consider concealed carry and home defense

  • Conservatives Rule - 12 years ago

    It would probably help voting IF YOU GOT THE SYSTEM WORKING PROPERLY!

  • Conservatives Rule - 12 years ago

    If they qualify for a CCP, then there is no reason to not allow state licensed students to carry concealed firearms on campus. Certainly better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Think of all the live that could have been saved at Virginia Tech. and the other college shootings had one responsible armed person been there!

    I'm sure there will be many that vote no, but then Liberals and criminals always prefer unarmed victims!

    When seconds count, the police are always minutes away!
