Supporting Second Amendment rights, at least at Hamline University in Minnesota:
In both messages, Scheffler made it clear to all but the most hysterically inclined person that his advocacy of concealed-carry permits was to protect the students from criminals. Scheffler recognized that this protection would be afforded primarily by predators’ foreknowledge that any one of the students at Hamline could shoot back, but also ? given that the administrators had both brought up the VT massacre ? by students being able to stop a killing rampage before it got started. …
Nevertheless, on April 23 Scheffler received a hand-delivered letter from Dean of Students Alan Sickbert that informed him his e-mails were “deemed to be threatening and thus an alleged violation of the Hamline University Judicial Code” and that he was placed on “interim suspension” to be lifted only after he agreed to a psychological evaluation by a licensed mental health professional.
