Video of UT Austin Campus Carry Discussion Forums. Entertaining, at least.

My favorite part is when Jerry Patterson tells the whiners near the end of 2nd forum (1 hr 23 minutes) if they try to get what they're asking for, the legislature will remove UT Austin's discretion in the matter.

UT like many higher education locations is and has been building the liberal mindset against self determination and self defense. The concept that we can talk out differences. We can reason with anyone. These all come from the closed community, closed mindedness of those intelligentsia who do not deal with or face the world outside of their little community of college teachers and students. We would have more likelihood of being accepted and supported taking our case to a school of fish than UT.

Forgive my ignorance, who is Jerry Patterson?

Ow wow, this is a UT stream. As the Dad of an Aggie grad student, I'm having a severe allergic reaction now. It can only be remedied by barbecue. I must go forth and eat the brisket of Bevo's cousin!

You're kidding me right?

 

[Younggun]

You're kidding me right?

I'm not surprised.

First speaker up on the 10/5 video nailed it!

Jerry Patterson is the guy that invented the Glock cylinder brush, to make cleaning tasks easier.

 

[Younggun]

Some of the comments are too stupid to comprehend.



"CHL holders are 4X more likely to commit violent crimes"

"Guns on Campus increases rape"

"My biggest fear is that someone will come in to my classroom shooting and one of my students will pull a gun and shoot him"



Makes me wish there were rebuttals to some of this crap.

Among other notable inventions and patents. A modern pioneer in the firearms industry.

Texas Land Commissioner?

Glock, is that one of those plastic toys people confuse with real guns?

 

[Younggun]

"Open carry at UT should be different than Open Carry at A&M, or in Lubbock, etc"

 

[locke_n_load]

Any more sound good sound bites? Patterson was good. Can't watch for 3 hours though.

But damn. So tired of the "dangerous arguments lead to shooting from students with guns in their backpacks" - aint no law gonna stop an armed gunman from bringing a gun into your class. And it's not gonna be a CHL holder either.

 

[locke_n_load]

And the 2nd guy after patterson, talks about provisions in the law for places like labs with dangerous equipment, daycares, hospitals, are supposedly sacred places where guns aren't allowed, but what makes classrooms any different? He is against the bill, but he is right - there's no rational reason why I shouldn't be allowed to carry in those places too...

 

[Chirpy]

So, some of these faculty think the only reason they aren't being murdered is because of a "gun-free zone" sign?

And if the sign is removed the lawfully carrying CHL holders will be the one to ventilate them?

Fruitbats.

 

[Chirpy]

Jerry Patterson, before inventing the cylinder brush (that doesn't scratch your Tupperware), authored the Texas Concealed Carry bill.

Fruitbats.

And students.


The idiocy of some of their statements is breathtaking.

I also think it's funny that many of these supposedly educated people seem to have no idea how the legislative process works, or even what the law they hate so much says. Some seem to think it hasn't even passed yet and is still up for debate.

Well, when I was a UT student going to summer school in 1966, I got to see first hand what a school shooting massacre looks like.

Those "objectors" in the videos aren't very objective at all. I wonder if they've stopped going off campus since the first Texas CHL laws were passed?

 

[Younggun]

Apparently offf campus isn't "sacred".

I wish someone with your experience had been there to give them some real world perspectives.

 

[Chirpy]

They truly do not understand that a law or sign prohibiting an activity does not in fact keep that activity from happening.

You'd think they would realize that as they are burning a doob or snorting some crushed Adderall, both prohibited and illegal activities.

Do they really think there aren't already illegal guns being carried on campus?

 

[Wabbit69]

Here's some irony: When one of these dingbat anti-gunners calls 911 for someone printing, and simply because they "don't like guns" you can make a pretty strong case for False Alarm or Report (42.06). Being on campus makes said false alarm a felony.

TXI, What's you're take on it?
