Meeting Colin Goddard

Today in one of my classes our guest speaker was Colin Goddard from the Brady Campaign. To me listening to him speak was absolution profound. Colin was a student at Virginia Tech in 2007 and Colin was shot 4 times. Colin currently works for the Brady Campaign, an organization that wants to prevent gun violence. One thing that Colin kept bringing up is how easy it is to get a gun and the gun show loop hole. The Gun Show loop hole is that someone can goto a gun show and get a gun from a privet seller with out having to go through a background check like people have to do if they get a gun from a registered seller.

At the end Colin talked what happened on that day and what he was thinking about when it was all happening. Colin also expressed some of his frustrations with Virginia Tech administration for how they dealt with the situation.

Needless to say it was very interesting to hear him speak.
