Pete Sessions actually said...

"It is hard to find a balance when two sides with hundreds of people on each side, perhaps thousands, are actually so committed to their side that they really cannot see the need for the other."

"I want to thank you for having this, what seemingly is a balanced opportunity, and I yield back my time."

"I believe that the vast number of people who carry, including myself, do so because we believe that we have a God-given right to protect ourselves."

"Madam Chairman, thank you very much. I appreciate you and Mr. Comer trying to work together."
