discussion about when does it stop becoming free speech and when is it hate speech or violence. i'm making no statements with regard to this. i think we need to have a national conversation. these actions clearly lead to violent situations. in no way does it condone what the individuals did, nothing can condone that violence. we need to take a look at what we allow into our communities, making our communities that much less safer, and what we allow from individuals outside the community with no ties and, you know, no stakes in the safety of our community. we need to take a strong look at that. >> they came from phoenix, and you were successful not having any protests. >> yes, absolutely. you know we are very familiar with pamela geller and her organization and individuals

we have law enforcement. who is entrusted with safety and who has the betweens and opportunity to investigate individuals who have been presented as threats to the country, when they have had them in their grasp. my question this is the one i want our department of justice to answer, is how, when these individuals have been on the radar, are able to plan and execute this violence in going unnoticed. >> this is a question asked in france after the "charlie hebdo" killings. >> for sure. >> it was a terrible night. good of you to join us to talk about it more than a dozen women told their babies died at birth. >> i didn't get a chance to see her. my parents didn't see her. i never got a chance to touch her were the babies actually stolen - a dna test that touched off a troubling investigation.
