I'm sorry, but this argument will not work.

There is no way you can prevent this from happening even if you are allowed to have guns on campus. Do you know how big these campuses are? You would need over 500 people with guns to even get close to stopping this. Then what would happen if a shootout occured and students got caught in the crossfire? Since it was in a building, it would take to long to get there and what would happen if the guy with the gun got shot and now this killer has even more ammunition?

The chances of someone stopping this by legalizing guns on campus is one in a million.

The only way to prevent this is to make tougher restrictions on getting handguns. This guy was obviously mentally sick to begin with and should never have been sold a gun in the first place.
