If I'm a politician, and I want to be perceived as taking action ...
I hate to say it but that was the strategy used by PRO-gun politicians to kill campus carry in TX. There were the supposed votes but terrible pressure against it by University of Texas and Texas A&M. They are extremely powerful lobbies. Thus, the bill never made it on to the calendar due to chicanery. Gov. Perry had the power to assure it made it on the calendar for a vote but somehow didn't get around to it.

Thus,' progun folks ' could support it but OH, DEAR - we couldn't vote on it.

So it might happen hear. Make a fuss and let public interest decay.
