The student government can try to overturn the veto when they reconvene next semester. But I'm not really worried about it.

The point is that students are not as universally opposed to campus carry as our opponents might have people believe, and now the Texas legislature and the people of Texas know that. The final disposition of a nonbinding student resolution is of much less significance than the results of the vote itself.

(My brother has to be at work at 4:00 a.m. so he drops her off at my house at 3:00 so she can nap, then I get to get her ready and driver her to school)
So, I didn't really get to pay much attention to it.

Plus, see I use an over-the-air antenna to get Waco,San Antonio, Austin,Fredericksburg, and some mornings (depending on weather) Bryan/College Station, Victoria, Houston, Dallas, and was flipping back and forth and rotating antenna, so I missed a lot trying to catch it. (Not rich enough for cable/satellite, plus my antenna gets between 94 and 100 channels since it went digital)

Sorry

Maybe contact the station and ask for a copy or whatever :headscratch
It's not that big a deal. I was just curious because we spent a lot of time trying to find interview subjects and stock footage for the reporters in San Antonio, and I was wondering how much of it they actually used and how well the interviews went.

RPB wrote:Fox 29 San Antonio was pretty brief, I've searched and can't see anywhere they postd it.

IMHO MyFoxAustin channel 7 KTBC had a one of the best video reports/ interview with Scott and allowed everyone to laugh at John Woods

I still haven't timed it, how long it is, yet.
The Fox 7 piece is six minutes and fifty-five seconds long. The debate portion is about four and a half minutes.

Did the Fox 29 piece include interviews with any Texas State students? If so, how did those interviews go? Also, did the piece include any footage from a CHL class?

(Edited, they just announced on TV, upcoming story about it ... I saw the story, but no link online to it)
How was the Fox 29 piece? What footage and interviews did they use? I've been looking all over their website for it, but it doesn't look like they posted it.

"Officers are trained to take out the person that's shooting, no matter who it is. If you have a gun, you're going out," says TSU Police Chief Ralph Meyer.

I don't think this would make me feel very safe if I was on campus... :shock:

I really wanted to address that comment in the debate, but the reporter started with Woods, so I had to spend what little time I was allotted rebutting his arguments.
