Don't bring your guns to school

College Republicans at the University of Michigan really know how to have a good time. They've been planning events including "Fun with Guns Day" and "Catch an Illegal Immigrant Day.*"
"Catch an Illegal Immigrant Day" would involve volunteers posing as illegal immigrants and hiding on campus while students try to find them for prizes. For the "Fun with Guns" activity, students would shoot cardboard cutouts of Democratic leaders with BB or paintball guns.
Okay, okay, the last bit does sound a bit fun.

Unfortunately, it looks like these events won't go ahead as planned. But maybe they can take heart in knowing that some students still like to kick it Columbine-style. (Or should I say College Republican-style?)

* Speaking of catching illegal immigrants, the Minutemen just keep getting better and better.

They are great at covering the Klan, Ayran Nations, etc., but police misconduct is completely off their radar - which is not a little curious considering historic Klan / cop collaboration in the Old South. Even more curious considering their excellent article on Nazi infiltration of the armed forces in the current issue.
