were approximately twenty more than those who cared enough to show up in support of the idea 'there is absolutely no rational need for Joe Public to own an assault weapon'.

May I counter guess that no, um... ammophobe(?) got wind of this meeting or if they did (or were at the initial meeting held two weeks prior) they couldn't find any buddies?

How committed is the sane citizen who actually value life and liberty over gun violence if they do not attend these type of hearings?
