In a bold move that’s sending shockwaves through the gun-grabbers’ echo chambers, the New Hampshire House of Representatives has just greenlit a campus carry bill, earning a well-deserved pat on the back from the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA). This legislation slams the door on colleges’ ability to ban firearms on campus, affirming that the Second Amendment doesn’t check its rights at the dorm room door. It’s not just a win for Granite Staters—it’s a masterclass in reclaiming public spaces from bureaucratic busybodies who treat students like fragile snowflakes incapable of self-defense.
Let’s break down why this matters beyond the headlines. Campuses have long been soft targets, with tragic shootings like Virginia Tech underscoring the deadly folly of gun-free zones that disarm the law-abiding while inviting predators. New Hampshire’s bill flips the script, recognizing that responsible adults—many of them 18- to 21-year-olds old enough to vote, serve in the military, and sign contracts—deserve the same carry rights off-campus. This isn’t reckless; it’s rooted in data showing concealed carriers are among the safest demographics, with defensive gun uses vastly outpacing criminal misuse. CCRKBA’s applause amplifies the momentum from states like Texas and Florida, where campus carry has thrived without the predicted chaos, proving nanny-state fears are just that: fearmongering.
For the 2A community, this is rocket fuel. It pressures blue-state holdouts and sets a template for red meat legislation nationwide, especially as midterms loom. Expect anti-gun outfits like Everytown to wail about bloodbaths, but history shows these laws enhance safety by leveling the playing field. New Hampshire’s House just reminded us: liberty isn’t suspended for higher education. Gear up, patriots—this is how we build the carry culture, one statehouse at a time.
