When Ernie started quoting scripture, I looked over at Rod with a giggle and a "This is gonna get GOOD!" I was sad when it ended so soon. ;)

Where is the transcript?
I'm not sure how soon after the hearings the transcripts get posted.
Once they are posted you can look up the specific bill of interest and along the right hand side there is a link to "related transcripts".

Dick is quick on his feet, but I will say our Rod held his own today, too. Our Legislative Team has really put in the work this year, getting legislative ideas to senators and getting bills drafted. We were kinda thrown off by the new committee scheduling a gun bills day so early in the session (historically, they were held off till later in the session and mixed with other, non related bills that made for a LOOONG day) But Rod, Dick, and Brian had plans of attack figured out early on in the process, it was simply a matter of putting it all on paper/ into words. KUDOS guys!
I will also say that the NFOA folks came off alot more prepared and RELEVANT than the Opposeitall Moms- sure they had statistics , but most of the time they were not relevant to the bill or obviously skewed, but mentioned in an effort to entice some emotion.

Dick Clark, a member of the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association, said he serves on an armed security team at a Lincoln Baptist church. He said he or other members of his team could save lives if the unthinkable happened. Clark, a lawyer, pointed out that banks are allowed to provide armed security.
“If we have an exception to protect money at banks, we should have an exception to protect children at school,” he said.
Chambers questioned the faith of Clark and Rod Moeller, also a member of the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association, who said he is a churchgoer. The senator asked why they didn’t think God would protect them from the calamity of violence.
“We can bury our heads in the sand and pretend danger doesn’t exist or we can seek knowledge and training,” Moeller said.

WHOA! Smack me silly! Is it just me, or was that about as fair/ balanced bit of reporting ever seen from OWH?
-
Why is Senator Chambers asking folks about God's protection? Didn't the man try to sue God a few years back?
Chambers is a prime example of a fine mind overcome by anger and hate.
