I graduated from Cherry Creek High school and I saw how many lives were ruined after the Columbine shootings, said Lindsay Wilson, freshman psychology major. Obviously there were many factors in causing that tragedy, but maybe it would not have happened if Littleton had tighter gun ordinances. As a student in Boulder I am relieved that there are stricter ordinances, said Nathan Stanley, junior marketing major. If parents keep their guns more carefully stored, maybe there will not be as many casualties. I know that there will be a lot of people that will be annoyed.
Many students find the new gun ordinances unacceptable.
I disagree with tighter gun control legislation, said John Deerley, sophomore engineering major. The excess of government intrusion is unacceptable. The new Boulder ordinances have been set in stone and the Boulder City Council is no longer open to public opinion. A third and final reading of the ordinances is scheduled for the Council s next regular meeting.
