With emotions swinging from heartbreak to fear, gratefulness to anger, more than two dozen people delivered sharp and sobering accounts about how their lives were forever blistered from two of the worst mass shootings in Texas history.
Some called for more gun regulations. Others pushed back with forceful defenses of the Second Amendment. Some called for metal detectors at the doors of every school. Others said a determined gunman would simply shoot the officers staffing the entrances. |

"That the Republican Abbott, a self-proclaimed Second Amendment proponent seeking a second term in November, would open a discussion that could lead to even modest restrictions on gun ownership in Texas is considered remarkable."
Where did Abbott say he would allow anything to lead to "even modest restrictions on gun ownership"? He said no such thing, and never even hinted at it.
The media is spinning this to portray it as something it's not. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
