Actually Ted Harvey was essentially paraphrasing the left’s argument, and then apologized for the left’s message of “administration/ student body feeling uncomfortable in the classroom trumps your right to self defense.” Rewatch the hearing, at 9hrs, 15min to 9 hrs, 17 min is his full response to Amanda Collins’ testimony.

That’s a pretty good slogan; got a chuckle out of it. 🙂
Wait, her last name is REALLY “Llyod”? How does one pronounce that? Something like, “Yee-OD”?
Come unto me, Yee-OD!!!
While I’m fully in favor of the right to keep and bear arms, I think proponents overstate it’s tyranny-deterring properties. There are plenty of countries where damn near everyone is armed, which are in a perpetual state of war. I don’t think the guns are to blame, but nor do they do much to avert bloodshed when you have populations of people who want to rip each other to shreds and who think that violence is an appropriate problem-solving tool.
Yes, there is always a chance that a gun can be taken from you in a violent attack–or you might fumble under stress or in myriad other ways fail to successfully defend yourself. But “relax and try to enjoy it” is not an acceptable alternative.
Reminds me of a Simpsons episode…. What are you drawing?…. A robot that has guns for arms shooting a plane made out of guns that fires guns.
Ignore the law. Period. It’s not only morally right, it’s your duty.
Great job! Now I need to dig out the spare change, get on Midway, find something I dont even need and buy it. I cant wait until next payheck, they diserve my business now.
My one and only hope (at no critisism against Midway) is the NRA take this money and make themselves a little more useful. Now that Im a life member I feel I have a right to say that.

i dont say this lightly, but i bet she’d be singing a different tune if she had been a rape victim herself.
Rocking a Glock in middle earth, tough gig.
“Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,009 registered voters with a margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage points.” Connecticut has a current population of roughly 3,590,347 people. That means roughly 0.028% of the population was polled.
But let’s be fair and cut the population number in half exclude the under-age and just represent adults who could vote. That gives us 1009 out of 1,795,173 so that is still just 0.05% of the population of Connecticut WITH AN ERROR OF +/- 3.1 percentage points.
And, as mentioned previously, no information whatsoever on demographics.
Cherry picking at it’s finest.
