Wait. What?John Woods wrote:This hearing appears to have been scheduled -- while most students are away on spring break, and on the same day another controversial issue reaches the House floor -- in order to cut those affected out of the discussion.
When I earned my engineering degree, it seemed we generally had more free time during breaks than while class was in session (or, even worse, during exams.)
Likewise for my MBA.
My comment:Students for Concealed Carry on Campus, however, hold the opposing view; Daniel Crocker, Southwest Director for the organization, believes the hearing was scheduled during spring break to actually give students from around the state the opportunity to come to Austin and testify. Because students have a week off, those who don't live in Austin have the opportunity to come ...
"Otherwise, it's just going to be an issue where these hearings are going to be attended almost 90 percent by students within the Austin area," Crocker said

Good Paper, worth reading:
A Psychiatrist Examines The Anti-Gun Mentality
By Sarah Thompson, M.D.
"If I were to summarize this article in three sentences, they would be:
(1) People who identify themselves as "victims" harbor excessive amounts of rage at other people, whom they perceive as "not victims."
(2) In order psychologically to deal with this rage, these "victims" utilize defense mechanisms that enable them to harm others in socially acceptable ways, without accepting responsibility or suffering guilt, and without having to give up their status as "victims."
(3) Gun owners are frequently the targets of professional victims because gun owners are willing and able to prevent their own victimization. "
