Takes the idea of the students carrying away, and puts emphasis on the campus safer for individuals.

Or the CHL Extension Act?

That's more to the point of what we want, but don't know if it's innocuous enough. Perhaps just the "License Extension Act". That could be any license.
Good idea :-)

I my meanest, most grouchy, hateful days, I still wouldn't wish that experience on anybody.
Unfortunately, we already have. Columbine and Virginia Tech. The anti's still think the police can protect everyone. IMHO, this all goes back to the unwillingness to accept personal responsibility for anything. The hardcore liberal believes he can do no wrong and that someone else, be it society or parents or whoever, is always to blame. Someone made them bad. They didn't make that decision on their own. Someone pushed them by not giving them a choice, chance, or whatever.
Exactly right. They also beleive that more guns always always escalates a situation. Only testimony like that of Amanda Collins, where the CHL law clearly could have made a difference, can possibly have any sway. And even in that situation, the liberal academic elite is likely to claim that if she would have had her gun, the rapist would probably have killed her rather than her defending herself from him.
Let's not talk ourselves into apathy, guys. There are anti's of all shapes & sizes, not all are unreachable. Moreover, we can do a better job mobilizing our base.

Reaching that group and mobilizing them would not be a primary need, but I think it would play an important support role.

Likewise, I think we need to get more young adult women to a range.
Both good points.

I would *guess* that the two main sources of anti-CC voices heard in Austin would be UT students, and out of state. What about helping the UT-SCCC chapter hold some sort of outreach events? Free firearms safety training & shooting?

Re: How do we *effectively* turn the tide on college campuse

Coming in 2013:

"The Student Protection Act"

Support the SPA! Heck... can we make it a 'Pro Choice' argument?
