Information Needed for Paper on Why Concealed Carry on Campus is beneficial

[yotebutcher90]

As you can read in my lengthy title, I'm writing a paper of the whole so called "controversial" proposition that was introduced here at Purdue to allow students who live off campus to be able to conceal carry on campus. I am in dire need of what is called "scholarly" sources and saw another person is doing something similar to me, but just looking for info to support this individual thought.

Not sure if any of this helps but I recently wrote a short article and needed a few citations and used these...

This may or may not interest you...

http://books.google.com/books?id=j6...EwAA#v=onepage&q=more guns less crime&f=false

This might also be of use in some fashion...

FBI — Crime in the U.S. 2010

Other than that I would search google scholar

The thing I try to always recommend when people ask this is Gun Facts - Gun Control | Facts | Debunk | Myths.

Lots of well-researched and supported stats there.

Good luck and if you don't mind, post it here when you're done, please!

Blessings,
Bill

Just look at ANY shooting, from Luby's in Tx., to ANY school, including Va Tech, if ONE person had ONE gun, how many lives COULD have been saved ?????

Don't use the word "controversial" in this context. See Bernard Goldberg in "Bias". It's a buzz word (liberal) people use to mark ideas they consider to be dangerous or wacky. Use "controversial" to tag the people who oppose constitutional carry on campus. IMHO

those are things I've done in the past, Might be good for some other arguments, and the first link has some very good sources, even if I had some issues with citation.
