Results: Daily Debate: Should guns be allowed in university housing?

The Second Amendment should supersede a Florida law that bans firearms from state university housing, a gun-rights group argued before judges. The 1st District Court of Appeal in Tallahassee heard arguments from Florida Carry Inc., which contends students and other people residing in on-campus housing at the University of Florida should be allowed to maintain possession of firearms as they would at their parents' homes.

"All we are saying is that the right to possess a firearm in one's home is fundamental," said Florida Carry attorney Lesley McKinney after the hearing. "Regardless of where one's home is, it's still their home." The judges offered no timeline on when they might rule. The University of Florida has disputed that the federal or state constitutions guarantee the right to have firearms in university housing.
