8:03 am
a grocery store in buffalo, new york. 10 days before that. in both cases, the alleged gunmen were just 18 years old. the texas shooter killed at the scene. the buffalo shooting suspect was arraigned on murder charges thursday. in a red primetime address to the american people, president biden urged congress to impose federal gun controls, suggesting a ban on automatic weapons and high capacity magazines. raising the age at which an individual can buy a gun from $18.00 to $21.00 and removing the protections against litigation enjoyed by gun manufacturers. dad, one message for all of this, do something. just do something. for god's sake do something. some of these measures suggested by president biden already being debated and may well be passed and the democrat controlled house of representatives held it,
8:04 am

8:05 am
those laura binding systems who have never and will never commit a crime. this isn't a real solution, it isn't true leadership and it isn't what american needs. and that's a shame jason nichols as a progressive political and social analyst and lecture in the african american studies department at the university of maryland. he says there is appetite for change. there seems to be right now a bipartisan effort to make some of these changes. i think the, the assault weapons ban is going to be a nonstarter. i don't think that republicans are going to support that. but a ban on high capacity magazines and red flag laws and background checks, which are largely popular with the american people. but there just been enough republicans who were in the pockets of the gun lobby that these things don't change . and i think we've gotten to a point with mass shooting after mass shooting after mass shooting that the american people even responsible gun owners,
8:06 am
are looking at those politicians and saying enough is enough. we need universal background checks. we need you not to be able to shoot off 50 rounds and not have to reload and that we need red flag laws. we saw in buffalo and new val day in particular. when we talk about val day, you had a young man, a shooter who shot his grandmother. now imagine if his grandmother were able to report to law enforcement that she thought her son was having a mental health crisis and should not have his weapons. and then he could go through a formal adjudication process in order to have those weapons removed. perhaps she wouldn't have been shot and even perhaps even more importantly, there would be 19 children who would still be alive and as well as the teachers. so this is something that the american people want. they see it as sensible. even gun owners support it, but it's just a few republican politicians who have been blocking this. and i think now with
