WSB posted this on Facebook and the number of anti-2A comments on there is pretty amazing. They all think this is going to make college campuses some kind of Wild West and "stressed out" college kids shouldn't have guns. Ugh.
Those same idiots thought FL was going to do the same when we got CCW passed. Just the opposite happened.
Wait wait wait. So in a matter of days, I can CC to school? Never thought i'd see the day!
Yes, a responsible student can now protect themselves in addition to all the other things they could do.
Let's say Nathan Deal signs it on Monday. When does the law go in effect?
"Once the three stages of the legislative process have concluded, a new stage—consideration by the governor—begins. During a session, the governor can request that a particular bill be sent for signature or veto. But generally most bills are only sent to the governor following the end of the legislative session. The governor then has forty days to decide whether to sign the bill into law, veto the bill (in which event it is returned to the house where it was introduced for veto override consideration), or do nothing (which allows the bill to become law automatically at the end of the forty-day period)." http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/government-politics/legislative-process-overview
So maximum 40 days to law. Hopefully he signs it ASAP.

Effective immediately, I think...
The things I've read says July 1 assuming he doesn't veto it.
Gotta give everyone plenty of time to shop so they will be heeled and ready to blaze away at same time just like the donut shop scene from Boogie Nights. Remember that's what happened when "Guns Everywhere" law went into effect. Maybe the profs can get bulletproof desks from the same place the MARTA bus drivers got their bulletproof seatbacks.
