Log-Summary of Campus Carry Hearing 750 out of committee

[RPB]

It sounded like that the committee members did as best as they could to politely blow John Woods off. I was also surprised at his blatant lie that all survivors and family of victims are all on his side. He added "to his knowledge" when saying that, I think so that if anyone ever called him on that lie, he could claim he didn't know.

right "qualified his statement so it wasn't perjury, however he full well knows better, so it actually would be a "lie" IMHO
Advocates waiting 4 years to decide?

Another suicide testimony, I thought they had asked not repeat testimony.
Anyways, their argument is only guns are more accessible, what are suicidal people going to do? Go frisk everyone they see to get a hold of a CHL's gun?

[RPB]

4:38 Merilee Keller Texas suicide prevention council and herself, against everything
age 15-24 died by suicide ... stats ... access to guns ... increases suicide risk, not likely to practice or deescalate situations she took a chl class
hopes de-escalation is added to course
supports 2 amendment but not here
doesn't think chl course is good enough and they don't practice enough
Cell phones are better protection
student shooting others accidentally = high risk
if it passes go local control limit to staff n professors
mentions students who are also staff identification
undiagnosed mental illness
add to chl class more de-escalation and proficiency

4:43 catherine sobering
750 against grad student at UT Austin
"How classrooms are different than Walmart-freedom of expression in class

(These are all going to be john woods cult people?)

4:46 Amanda Sun 750 Against
academic advisor and herself
it will cause "gun violence"
She's over 400 people
She the one who tells people they failed etc and is scared of chls who will impulsively shoot her, themselves or others.
Kids are mentally ill and that age group is impulsive. it's stress the kids with guns can't handle and alcohol problems ....
most students she sees are age 23 average
"no one supports these bills and we have to live with it"


4:52 catherine merriweather grew up around hogs , I mean guns but her dad hunted hoggs
She's against everything but knows guns Blinn college is against it and now shes at UT has cell phone and an escort
she is insecure and terrified when Colton Tooley was there but police made her feel safe a chl would make it worse.
I should feel safe blah blah blah
-Committee member said you were close to library, asked what might happen if 2,000 students drew guns on Colton Tooley

[RPB]

5:04 against everything Cathy Setzer grad student n govt professor
She'll go away if we pass this and we'll hire Texan Teachers because she and others will quit, so our unemployment will improve (my paraphrase)
(committee member said effectually, go ahead bye bye

5:08 Cody Jarman at A.C.C. too many things can kill us so he's against guns
Says "male appendage envy" will make CHLs play show e yours and mine's bigger
What if 9/11 people had guns (actually thousands might have lived)
he hunts anualy and misses his shot sometimes

5:12 Thomas Just against HB 750 was in air force 6 years
UT student now it's stressful they'll shoot teachers
In law school debating Roe V Wade he'll have to be more polite
(john woods group clapping)

[RPB]

5:16 Eric Lamberton FOR everything
UT Austin student 6 year air force veteran

2 amendment

[RPB]

5:23 Dr BJ Lee female A&M student and UT has 3 degrees and taught some against everything
temporary insanity if fail a class
was amazed chls can have guns on campus already. please get an escort if feel unsafe and leave gun in the car (to get stolen and used in crime later)
border schools maybe due to cartel, but not here at UT if I was a chl and aimed at colton tooley he'd have shot me.
How many veterinary places got robbed of drugs?
Is it enough that i know it's a paranoid schizophrenic so I can draw a gun?
people get emotional in debates its dangerous they might draw a gun.
various rambling
people excited at football games
Please neuter the bills if they go farther

[RPB]

people turned in witness applications which aren't complete ...

5:31 Reed Long on all bills, for himself, 4th year grad student at UT Chemistry Dept against everything John Woods wants him to say
guns are great but they'll blow up my laboratory
Reading about Suicide the stuff John gave him to read.

(Committee members ignoring and chatting among themselves)

[Beiruty]

Now a chemist is afraid that your glock will melt when it enters the chemistry lab. What an ignorant statements!

[RPB]

[RPB]

5:37
Trevor Partney UT Austin/Afghanistan Veteran against 750 but for CHLs and 2 amendment.
for local control
(audible chatting among committee members and chuckling)
talking about soldiers and negligent discharges
combat is confusing even if we have the same uniform who is the enemy and kids at school won't know ... and police will be impeded

girls being raped need non-lethal mace instead of anything which can be fatal (as wind blows it in their own face)

[Beiruty]

What an Afghan Vertran who cannot ID Friend or Foe even when the suspected target wears the same uniform

[RPB]

What an Afghan Vertran who cannot ID Friend or Foe even when the suspected target wears the same uniform

yeah everyone in Afghanistan is safer with him at UT then

[RPB]

5:43 Art Acevedo Austin PD against
His cell phone goes off lol takes battery out
"I only have 1 bullet in one of my pockets"
Pro-2 A BUT only for me not 21 year olds
cell phone goes off again
high suicides on campuses
like bars schools don't need guns with bunch of young people running around
colton tooley again told all plain clothes officers watch out, leave the area
Lock gun in glove box and call police during rapes. (but UT crime watch says car burgaries increased on campus)

Question any campus police endorse
dunno nmoe i know

any trouble with CHLs?
nope, very pleasant experiences with them always, but don't belong in schools
