Thanks for pointing out that error. Yes, I do recall now that it was indeed Sen David Bradley who underscored the need for more counselors in our schools. Also, given the mind-set of many of our legislators, it is indeed fortunate that we have 3 mental health professionals holding seats as either representatives or senators!

Bruce Wheeler was not present (at least not on the stage). I believe it was LD 10 Senator David Bradley who said that about counselors, as he is the Chief Dev. Officer. of La Frontera Arizona.

You said: “Representative Bruce Wheeler that he would rather see more counselors in schools than cops as a way to curb gun violence.” David Bradley said that not Bruce Wheeler. Also the Star has Bradley saying it not Wheeler – http://azstarnet.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/elections/discussion-civil-during-wide-ranging-ward-roast/article_186fd7e2-d01f-5cc2-b191-c92e4709e7d9.html

Lots of issues were brought up and I do hope Orr & Steele can reach across the aisle and develop something meaningful for mental health (good energy). Unfortunately, the majority of AZ legislature is not people friendly or animal friendly either.
