Randy talking guns on CNN


Marci's brother Randy is a professor at the University of Utah, and any of you that know him, know that he loves his guns all 20 of them (actually at this point I've lost count). This video is of a CNN story done a few days after the Virginia Tech tragedy, where they interview a couple of students from the U cause Utah is the only state that allows guns on college campuses. One of the guys interviewed is a student of Randy's. There is a short shot of Randy talking about feeling safer knowing one of his students has gun in class. That sounds weird but if even one of the students in that building at VT had a gun, the death toll could have been much less. A gun in the hand of a responsible trained citizen can be very useful at times. Just look what happened at the Trolley Square shooting, there could have been many more dead there if it wasn't for the off duty Ogden officer that was carrying a concealed weapon.

I have been trying to put a video on my family's blog and for the life of me can not figure it out. I noticed you have videos on your blog. Could you give me some step by step instructions??
Thank you,
Tricia

Tricia, to post a video on your blog you first need to setup an account at either photobucket.com or youtube and then upload your video to one of those sites. Take note that youtube only allows videos of under 10 minutes and no larger than 100 MB, also if your video is much larger then 50 MB it is going to take along time to upload. After uploading it will give you an embedding code that you copy then paste it in the body of the text when you are making a new post for your blog. Once pasted in there, publish your blog, and view your blog to see how it looks. I usually paste in the code at the first of the posting, then put the text you want under it. Anymore ?'s email me at esatterthwaite@gmail.com.
Alternatively you can try using the add a video button, which is next to the add a photo button on the screen where you make a new post in blogger, but I've never tried that.
