Yes, I saw her. She was not calm at all, and she never got her point across.

The Red Shirts were Mothers Demand Action shirts. She didn't help their cause. There were a few on "our side" that I don't think help our cause either.

Yes, the singing testifier was supporting the bill, but she was a bit belligerent with her exit from the chamber.

My understanding is 'yes', we can. I don't know the process for doing so, but it seems anyone can sign up to testify.

I just logged on to it, and caught the tail end of the lady that decided to end her testimony with a song.

Not exactly the spokesperson I'd hoped for on our side, ya know?

Stephen WIlleford is now up!
The hero of Sutherland Springs. He da man.

Maybe it's because I live in the conservative utopia of a Houston (/sarc), but I've not met many of the 81% of Texans who oppose this bill.
That MDA talking point is clearly the result of a biased push-poll.
