CU students with concealed-carry permits voice concerns

BOULDER — A University of Colorado discussion about guns on campus changed course Wednesday as at least a half-dozen people in the audience identified themselves as students with concealed-weapon permits and defended their right to bring firearms to school.

The vocal majority at last month's forum expressed collective dismay and concern over a Colorado Supreme Court decision that struck down CU's gun ban.

Top campus officials organized the second forum because concealed carry continues to be a hot topic on campus since the high court's ruling last spring.

This time around, several attendees expressed their support for the Supreme Court ruling, and some said they were concerned that concealed-weapon permit holders have been demonized by the campus community.

"As a permit holder, I don't feel that the university has a unified message. I almost feel like there's a harsh reaction toward me," said Steve Ojala, an MBA student. "I'm here to protect. I'm not a criminal. I don't have a background record.

"But I feel like I'm a criminal."
