Guns on State University campuses

by a transgender person
There are guns at San Francisco State University.

Dear government officials:
Imagine you are at school. You just took a test and your hungry, frustrated, scared, and tired. You walk out of the classroom, then out of the building. You are thinking and casually strolling with your head down. All of a sudden there is a large group of people standing around. You thunk well its a school that is normal?
BUT WAIT you look up and there are a dozen cops all of them carrying guns and poised for attack. What to do what to think are there criminals on campus? NO it's called ignorance.
This happened to me at San Francisco State University.
Oh by the way, I am a transgender person.
I stated that fact because: Over 50% of all hate crimes committed against transgender people are committed by the police forces.

This reality needs to be different. Keep guns off my campus.

Do not respond and you will push US into a corner. History has shown when that happens people use non-conventional tactics against the
the perpetrators.

Please please keep guns off my campus.

Peace.
