by Davidson College which is located just outside of Charlotte plans to hold a panel discussion entitled, “Gun Rights, Responsibilities, and Regulations,” on Monday at 7pm. Among the topics will the current scope and status of the Second Amendment as well as whether there should be changes to guns laws in the state and nation.

Davidson College To Hold Public Gun Forum
GRNC has learned that Davidson College has invited the public to a panel discussion
on “Gun Rights,
Responsibilities, and Regulations,” on Monday evening, October 7 in the Lilly Family Gallery of Chambers Building.The
panel will
address questions such as: What are the trends in the use of guns in
murders and other violent crimes in the U.S.? What is the current status
and
scope of our Second Amendment rights? What does federal law require
regarding background checks prior to gun purchases? What concerns do
law-enforcement personnel have about illegally trafficked guns? Are
changes to current gun laws or regulations warranted, either at the
state or
federal level?The panel will include Chief Rodney Monroe of the
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, Chief Jeanne Miller of the
Davidson Police Department, Interim Acting Chief/Captain Carolyn
McMackin of Davidson College Public Safety, Lance Stell, Thatcher
Professor of
Philosophy and Director of Medical Humanities, and Andrew O’Geen,
Assistant Professor of Political Science. The event is being sponsored
by the
Vann Center for Ethics, and will be moderated by David Perry, Director
of the Vann Center and Professor of Applied Ethics.Lost
Invitations?Noticeably missing from the discussion
panel, of course, are any solid Pro-Second Amendment individuals.
Perhaps
their invitations were lost at some point? Here’s where you come in:
plan to attend the forum at Davidson College on Monday evening so that
all voices can be heard. Unless we are willing to participate in these types of forums, our voices may be swept by
the wayside so that only one side of the issue is heard. Although we can’t say for sure if that is the intention here, we
can make sure that our side is represented in the audience, at least.Important note
Those
planning to attend the event should note that guns are not allowed on
the Davidson College campus. Davidson College is a private
educational facility and does have a “no weapons/ firearms” policy.
Please do not bring firearms with you on Monday evening.
