the country might well experience a 2nd wave of infections in coming months after the good times of summer and autumn the site. and there's more on these and other stories that our website and on our you tube channel as well for now i'm brian thomas for the entire team thanks for being. in mexico many pushes home loves us right now from the world's climate change candidate awful story this is my plan stay way from just one week. how much worse can it really get you know. we still have time to an ongoing. process of.

what is being made here is for many part of the american dream but for others it's an increasingly frequent nightmare. underneath the girl all those parks in the trigger. cars group they all have to work together to give me the final product but really what we're after is a finished. weapon. well. we are part of the n.r.a. the people that are fighting for your rights we've become part of those groups we like to be to a system in the fight for rights here. every sense of the memberships and then they go to lobbyists and they try to get the pro gun bills through or try to stop the anti weapon bills good. it's got to pick your colors if you don't quite know what you want we can help you get it exactly what you want for where you're headed we just had one that looks like a snake snakes. joy everybody is looking out for you in washington

so the other is the doing that for. 911 what is your emergency they. don't. have anybody any. amount of thought every hour in the paramedic what are you going to do you going to do you know i'm going. to go on go on the. park on florida february 28th. 1000 year old returned to his former high school to unleash a deadly bomb with a legally purchased assault rifle. the park one shooting left 17 people dead 14 of them students and

a further 15 injured. as you can imagine it is a challenging difficult morning georges on the scene in florida where another community is in this believe the shock by devastating violence. the most disturbing aspect about gun violence in america is that recent data shows that the frequency of mass shootings is only increasing over time. the students who survived the massacre are getting ready to go back to school for a much bigger fight taking on the n.r.a. . every year the united states sees about $350.00 mass shootings roughly one per day massacres like the one in parkland have led to renew cones for stricter gun laws resisting such reforms is the national rifle association which owes its very existence to the right of every american to bear arms in self-defense to stop a bad guy with a gun it takes a good guy. i with that guy the national rifle association has one of the most

powerful political forces merica it has a somewhat message we have a constitutional right to own firearms and nobody can take that away from us. and the n.r.a. has connections at the very highest level of government. if you had a teacher was who was a dept of firearms they could very well in the attack very quickly. the n.r.a. is really lunt loose in its mob being and has a huge network of dedicated supporters. 5000000 members in the n.r.a. today they've gained more and more power to all the power of course is financial because they can shoot board candidates talk during elections the more major we are the boys should be perfect we're the boys because of it's almost early american to be at it though when you tell people who truly believe no she we're going to

abolish the right woman good luck but. how is the n.r.a. able to wield such influence over lawmakers who are these people who know no bounds when it comes to defending these constitutional rights the survivors of the parchman shooting are now among the most vocal of the gun lobby's opponents passed a budget into maintaining a county and i came on. but what can they do in the face of the mob the seeming omnipotence to students from heartland really coming out in force is a new political movement that we have never seen before marching on washington lobbying their elected officials they're going up against history that hasn't been on their side of the post and they're going up against a dedicated group of people in the n.r.a. that they saw this focus on as tragic as it is the kids that are coming out of heartland in the. bara they're new to this political fight and the n.r.a.

has been fighting it and gun rights advocates have been fighting this battle field and it's. a battle that is being waged even in this sleepy looking small town at the foot of the rocky mountains in western colorado it's named appropriately enough his rifle. it's a place that looks like a relic of the wild west it's home to a former saloon and now a restaurant called the shooters group. carrying a weapon here is not just permitted it's openly encouraged the restaurant prides itself on having armed waitresses its founder. customers with a 9 millimeter semiautomatic pistol the interior is adorned with john wayne vintage guns and even a crucifix framed by bullets for sure israel is an open carry restaurant by week after myself we all carry firearms to work and they are loaded there are real we all practice we all train we are efficient with our firearms we pack this

safety with them. and i think that it's good for more people to have them because we feel safer this is the safest restaurant the world ever known is always ready in case anything happen and nothing ever has there you go colorado is one of the $32.00 states in the us where citizens have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun which might be a pistol or an automatic assault rifle. to stop a bad guy with a gun you need a good guy with a gun because the criminals have free range they know you have nothing to stop them with they can go in and try to rob you at gun point and you're not going to shoot back because you are a law abiding citizen and you are obeying the government and not carrying your firearm and so they know they can go in and they can have whatever they want they can go. and take it they could shoot where ever they want because there's no one

stopping them here in rifle colorado * there's people they're going to stop them. from the pistol is as normal an accessory as a piece of clothing she also carries her gun at home in the presence of her 4 children are she and her husband have around 20 guns around the house out of sight for safety reasons i guess she's proud to be a lifelong member of the n.r.a. . and i like that because there's a lot of transparency the n.r.a. wants us to know what they're doing they want to know what they're fighting for why gun control topic is on the table today and they want to let us know how they're fighting. the n.r.a. currently has some 5000000 members with almost 800 employees coordinating the lobbying work of over 10000 local branches the association was founded in 1871 by civil war veterans and nationally as

a club for hunters and recreational shooters and advocated training children in the use of guns from an early age. the national rifle association commonly referred to as the. national organization of sportsmen in the united states. but in the 1960 s. new gun control legislation had been introduced following a string of high profile assassinations the n.r.a. switched its mission to gun ownership advocacy and became one of the most powerful lobby groups in the us. going to interfere with the fate of his brother. those who wrote the death of martin luther king this tragedy must bring americans together to legislate but. one of the most important chain. is was with all of the violence in our society and

other societies in the late 1960 s. and with the assassinations of martin luther king and robert kennedy in 1968 president johnson began to push for more restrictions on guns and then he americans even democrats who had supported johnson became very worried because they were afraid that if they didn't have their guns they would be unprotected when they saw in particular they were afraid of black power plant have black panthers. how. effective crime can prove. remains in my judgment effective gun control. a warning shot to the country's traditionalists. there was a small group of members of the n.r.a. that believed that gun rights were about to be curtailed dramatically and there

were these conversations about gun rights and they decided to rise up within the n.r.a. and they effectively took over the entire organization it went from a moderate. less powerful group of sportsmen to a very staunch conservative organization 100 percent focused on the idea of ensuring that the right of an individual to own a gun would not be curtailed at all. looking for new ammunition to berther his campaign the n.r.a. founded argument rooted in the united states constitution and amendment and it is 1791. we believe in our cargreen we believe in our bill of rights and we believe it our 2nd amendment to the united states constitution all of our 2nd amendment because we believe in the freedom and

the safety. and that if. it hello dear and teasing absolutely our freedom and our safety. the 2nd amendment says a well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed and there's a lot of debate about what the founding fathers meant does it mean people have the right to join together to ensure that the government isn't. acting as a dictatorship or does it mean every single person has the right to have a gun on them at all times no matter where they are you know or do british you're. going to do what i think sometimes people miss is that when it was written the weapons the right to bear arms those arms were muskets they were weapons that

maybe in a best case scenario you can get off 3 shots in a minute if you were an expert. so at that time mass shootings were impossible because there were not weapons that would make someone capable. in virginia where hundreds demonstrated outside the n.r.a. headquarters afternoon protesters blame the national rifle association for helping to lock in gun control laws maybe the n.r.a. is powerful enough to prevent any meaningful change thanks to its political ties and insistence on the constitutional right to bear arms among the anti-gun activists is time hammond's one of a number of young people here who are survivors of the parthenon high school massacre their fun at the cowardice us building because that's where they all stay behind closed doors so that they have balls they come and talk to us like people they're cowards i fight is the winning fight because too many guys that's how much

blood has shed and when we say enough is enough he did i'm sure she was we're tired of so many children having to we look at their roster groundings and realize that. it's not their pro-gun protesters brandishing an assortment of high powered firearms are present in this state this particular state it's our information open carry this is always a monthly bill and not the criminals which i'm sure people would think if faced me . like so i'm just more worried about. me carrying guns just not in my own business . in a country in which one in 3 adults owns at least one firearm the young gun control advocates are widely seen as hopeless idealists an estimated $300000000.00 guns are owned by civilians half of the world total of privately owned firearms. alan from colorado is an n.r.a.

member and has a penchant for high caliber weapons i grew up in a household where if i was a good kid and i did all my chores and i did what my parents asked me to do i would actually get incentive by them giving me ammunition issued by a 22 caliber rifle. honestly the main thing i worry about is that someone is going to endanger myself or my family or my friends and do i have the ability to protect myself and those i care about around because unfortunately as you very well know where you are even if we're in france it's a big bad world out there. alan also trains other n.r.a. members in his free time he expects actions not just words for his $1500.00 lifelong membership state senator john morse concedes in his recall race tonight's historic vote leading to the 1st recall in state history. is attempting to make the

recall of a state legislator is very punishing as it goes for passing gun restriction legislation in his state. democrat john morse spent 7 years as a state senator in colorado shortly after his appointment as president of the senate in 2013 he successfully proposed new legislation to restrict the sale of assault weapons the n.r.a. retaliated by launching an initiative to force morse and other legislators out of office via a recall. moat. in december of that same 2012 newtown happened and we had. nearly 2 dozen people killed there most of them 6 and 7 year old children so our sessions started in january and i knew that we needed to do something about gun

violence in colorado since much of that violence that occurred here in colorado so by that time the n.r.a. had gin up support for its position and so one of the days when we heard these bills in the senate they surrounded the capitol with about 20 cars that just drove around the block from about 8 30 in the morning until about midnight that night just honking their horns trying to disrupt the hearings so gun lobby did a great job of making it look like people were really opposed to these mass of these measures senate president john morris is taking it over to full and in the wrong direction morris is pushing major changes strictly list for the n.r.a. invested over a $1000000.00 in a media campaign to oust the state senate president timber to paid for the national

rifle association committee to restore coloradans rights this is pretty much their standard static you know i mean they just lie cheat and steal and for whatever reason too many americans buy into it as a result too many americans and the dead just pure lies all the way through but you can see it's just marketing there's very little that's very specific in there you know morse is going to give us freedom how is that even possible. after serving careers in the police force and then in politics morris now works as a certified accountant in denver colorado but he continues to observe how the n.r.a. has been increasing its political clout in the state senate and house of representatives . you know my biggest disappointment in losing was that it sent a very clear message to elected officials around the country that if you do anything even if it's just common sense gun safety we took out the president of the

colorado states we can take us to and it has worked. there hasn't been much in the way of gun law changes in the entire country since what we did and we did barely anything and the fact that it actually costs human lives and we're willing to pay that cost i mean it makes me ashamed very ashamed to be an american at this point in time. when john morse had to leave office in 2013 the n.r.a. was headed by david keene an experienced strategist considered a powerful opponent then president barack obama he has since openly acknowledged his role in the removal of the colorado senate leader claiming that there was simply too much at stake back then. we when i went out there lobbied against it. as did every other gun organization and 2nd amendment that was very important in

that in that whole battle that was going on. because you could almost hear statehouse doors all over the country closing. where they were saying oh no it's not something that we should be looking at because the fact is that there are consequences to to to to passing legislation that really riles up your constituency political revenge and the demonstration that if you if you go against the 2nd amendment there's a price to be paid. the n.r.a. tries to ensure its opponents pay that price and that politicians and public officials are aware of that threat. the conservative state of texas had never caused major problems for the n.r.a. people in the south have traditionally been firm supporters of the 2nd amendment.

so the emergence of opposition to the gun lobby here came as something of a surprise a few weeks before the midterm elections in 2018 the city of austin hosted a debate on gun violence former soldier and n.r.a. critic stephen playing ran for election in the texas state senate. hey you know i am going to ignore me no no no i got out. of his grassroots activism made him a popular candidate and despite pressure from the lobbyists he was not afraid to confront the n.r.a. and make guns the key theme of his campaign. that history ari is really just a lobbying organization for the firearms industry they make billions and billions of dollars in this the united states a very unique and open market where nothing strays like that makes the united states it's one reason the united states is the foremost exporter of weapons both

legally and illegally and i would stress the last i care about moral clarity and i care about making sure that we give a voice to the people but haven't had one and if the n.r.a. wants to come in here and challenge me i'll take that challenge any day. among those participating in the forum discussion who are a former police officer and a number of victims of gun violence as well as public officials all of them determined to bring about change every year the united states registers up 260000 incidents involving firearms in 2019 they cost the lives of almost 15000 people and left 28000 others injured or in most states reaching the age of 18 in titles you to purchase a gun. and without having to prove that you can use one responsibly many americans say those laws are too lax but the enter a makes a huge effort to ensure that those laws are not compromised it invests millions of

dollars into the election campaigns of politicians to ensure that the status quo is maintained. so this is a picture of the incumbent senator donna campbell she's chosen not to be here today she felt like this wasn't a friendly forum we tried to give her assurances that we would be respectful and that we will listen to all sides of this issue her position isn't really or she doesn't really have a position she defers to the n.r.a. for her position and that i think is part of the problem is they use their heavy handed tactics when it comes to. our elections are pouring money into them and overwhelming the other side of the argument with with money oftentimes foreign money is a big part of the problem and why are legit are going legislations don't reflect the popular will. the n.r.a. is constant push for political leverage has given a major boost to the careers of prominent members of congress in washington the majority of them republicans. the n.r.a.

spends a considerable amount of its resources influencing our lawmakers in order to prevent them from happening or even proposing gun legislation. senator john mccain for example received $8000000.00 richard burr from north carolina $7000000.00 roy blunt representing missouri 4 and a half 1000000 and marco rubio from florida $3000000.00 for the gun lobby also donated 30000000 dollars to donald trump's $26000.00 election campaign an investment that paid off. the true friendship of the white house no. federal agencies the coming after a lot. by gun owners. behind the scenes that political influence is meticulously documented by the n.r.a. elected politicians are assessed according to their usefulness to the gun lobby and

those grades have a big impact on their chances of reelection. and ari does rate political candidates and elected officials on a scale that we rate our school children on so a is good at is bad and all of the major candidates will get an n.r.a. rating what they often do is they take all the speeches that the person running for office has done they have people that work for them at the n.r.a. and they scanned all of the speeches and of course you can do this on computers as well for any type of comments that might seem negative and you know just a few negative comments is enough to you know basically push their button and they go after you so you know typically if you want to a plus you have to basically you know bow down to the n.r.a. you have to basically come out for you know in favor of the 2nd amendment without any types of restrictions but i want to say at the outset that from there mark you

just heard this is a guy that gets it you know think this is donald trump's later chief of staff ryan's priebus back in 2013 this is a guy that built and helped elect the kind of people that electrified this crowd today any great mechanics and you need great candidates need them thank you very much god bless you. you probably. endorse about $1400.00 candidates each year at the various levels if you have an incumbent who's in a rated. officeholder and a challenger who's a rated then the incumbent gets the advantage because his record is real because he didn't just talk. he or she would talk they actually voted. it's not uncommon for children in the u.s. to learn to shoot a gun before they can read and write. just outside of austin texas we find what is

for gun reform activists a shocking example of elementary education 6 year old kate. about school she struggled with you and your 1st time when you were 4 right yes. first time shooting. a shop at target depicted on the cover is kate with her $22.00 caliber rifle so this is the one that you choose the most as what she kind of started with is easy for her to use it because it is very small and light weight and he fits her pretty well all right sure get it right she did it. oh it's actually. there she is with a rifle. she trains jujitsu and she does ballet and other things that help them develop the strength that she would need to shoot to have your goal i mean i

don't argue it's sunday morning and a group of families meet up at a shooting range. kate and her friends have come out here to the desert with their parents to let off a bit of steam. but this is no toy gun so her dad gives her some practice lessons so let's do the 1st one dry ok. target black out for us. ok good more. in the targets that i am pretty ok nice work but the children here are aged between $6.12 texas has no minimum age for firing guns kates $22.00 caliber rifle it does not have a strong recoil but it's as deadly as most other common firearms. but a nice piece of a database out loud even to shoot game play where did i get all the hi all i

can be kind of a. moderate. if you want this shot tonight kate's gun is a semi automatic a ar 15 which is not just the weapon of choice for some elementary school girls similar guns were used in parkland and the pittsburgh synagogue shooting in 2018 as well as notorious mass killings in last vegas orlando semed bernadino and the sandy hook elementary school shooting each ended the lives of dozens of people americans now own an estimated 15000000 they are fifteen's which has become an almost iconic symbol of the gun control debate some states have age restrictions up to 21 to buy handguns but not in our 50 and so you can buy a ar 15 legally when you're 18 again all you can do you don't have to show any ability to be able to use it you don't have to show you know any sort of real mental competency you know you you there's no waiting period to get one either walked out with a ar 15 and

a 100 rounds of ammunition 20 minutes later. the same guy who can't go buy a 6 pack of beer there is no better firearm to defend their homes against realistic threats than an a r 15 semiautomatic it's easy to learn easy. i think there are 2 reasons people find these attractive one and it gives the sense of power but 2nd people are also afraid well if you limit that weapon then you allow limits on other weapons too so there is this purity this sense that we have to have no limits at all which is what the n.r.a. argues the n.r.a. does not defend the a r 15 as the a r 15 they defend the right to all or all guns it's become a focus in america now because people who want to enforce gun control say that there's really no reason for someone to have an ar 15 there's no good reason and they're not great for hunting. it what it really is purpose is to kill the maximum

amount of things in the smallest amount of time. the biggest donor to the n.r.a. is the arms industry itself various companies make direct financial contributions confident that their investments will bring their own kind of dividends. connecticut based group makes no secret of the fact that it diverts $2.00 to the n.r.a. from every weapon so totaling $4000000.00 over a period of 2 years just one of countless examples that explain why the lobby group boasts a manual budget of a quarter of a $1000000000.00 money that ultimately translates into a handsome payback for the arms trade. see obvious reason manufacturers would give to the n.r.a. is because the air n.r.a. drive sales i mean every time there was a shooting. people would buy more guns because they thought this is the one where they're going to start taking away our guns and they're going to start making it harder to buy guns. and sounding that alarm was the n.r.a. the n.r.a.

was driving those sales. and so it's no surprise that gun manufacturers and gun shops would have these arrangements where they give back a portion of the profits to the n.r.a. . and in return the n.r.a. promotes the sale of firearms in the u.s. which amount to around $3000000.00 guns every year but that's not all the n.r.a. exert its influence on lawmakers to ensure that vote some legislation go the right way in 2005 for example congress passed a law exempting arms manufacturers from liability should their products be used in a crime for the n.r.a. its biggest try on the legal front in recent history. and the bill is passed last amended. we lobbied congress very heavily we made it

a priority we judge people on the basis of their position on that. ultimately they agreed they supported the. republicans and democrats alike it was very important to the florida strait it was very important to american gun owners and very important to the to the survival of the 2nd amendment as something real what it has served to end of doing really is for moving guns from the conversation so it's now almost impossible to talk about guns and relations in these mass shootings and you see that now today sort of the chain reaction of events of consequence is that there was a commission stood up to such studies school safety in the wake of parkland and last week that sort of os who is the secretary of education who's the head of the commission announced that they weren't going to look at guns they weren't going to talk about guns at all with regards to school safety. and she cited this act as part of it the say well you can't you can't blame guns say you know we have

an act in congress that says guns aren't the problem here is or it's this whole guns don't kill people people kill people argument that you know it's just because of the bad person who had a gun the gun has nothing to do with it and so the n.r.a. really pushed it again to protect the manufacturers that are. giving them money that are supporting them. the n.r.a. shapes the national agenda and has ensured that firearms have become sacrosanct and an inviolable right. the lobbies young critics want to challenge that. like 60 percent of americans they want to see new stipulations on the purchase of weapons a clean police record and they want a ban on the sale of assault weapons to those under the age of $21.00 today those young activists are protesting outside congress in washington. st thomas and.

jonathan who way they got and since the parkland high school shooting survivors have attended a number of demonstrations to mark new killing spree sq together with other gun reform activists they want their fellow americans to sense their anger and frustration over the government's inaction. i am tired of politicians who sat down there were 4 before actually sitting down and having this discussion i am tired of interim leadership good lord mocking but don't doubt the weirdness in bashing young people who are changing the world. marcel mcclinton from texas is part of a gun violence prevention group today he's organized a diane in symbolic memory of the parkland massacre a demonstration that is also an indictment. those who are dying soon in a mass of bodies will visit you later on and you make. me want to write your.

$100.00 yard was not our building which is why we are showing of the capitol they take so much money from the n.r.a. why you don't care about we will believe they only care about their money and they speak on behalf of how a dollars they get and i want to have you get what we want all the same if you want to consider also what. marcel mcclinton has himself experienced the horrors of a mass shooting in his hometown of houston in 2016 he recalls how the murderous rampage began one sunday morning. 2 years ago in my church and there was a show drunk on the campus. he was outside of the parking lot and. he killed i think just one person but injured 6 and i want to say you shot 2 police officers were there 15 this sounds going to your head and. says you know what. at the time i get i didn't get into government activism i didn't think anything of it

. it's this gusting as a country as we call ourselves the leading country in the world and yet we kill most of our people and i say we call our people because our politicians are the ones doing nothing about it and so there's blood on their hands and yet they have the nerve the audacity to say that that we're the number one country in the world i know i think i'm proud to be an american i love their lives i wouldn't live anywhere else but it's sad that as a country we can't come together as one and say this is a problem let's fix it. marcel mcclinton and his fellow activists know that bringing about change is immensely difficult his native texas is a stronghold of the gun lobby and it was no coincidence that the n.r.a. chose dallas to host its annual convention in 2018 the organization boasted of $80000.00 freedom loving patriots attending the event including guest of honor donald trump. the president pledged his unwavering support to make his point

about gun ownership he mimicked about to come massacre they killed 89 people in paris in 2050 they were brutally killed by a small group of terrorists this. they took their tongue and dunk them down one by one. come over here bone come over here boom oh but if you want to employ. we're just drawing the patients had a gun. or every one of the cars in this room had been there was going. to record. the to loose. game and it would have been a whole different story. of the earth in the short run he's a very good president for the n.r.a.

because he does their bidding he does what they want in the long run he's a terrible president for the n.r.a. because he's a useful adversary to mobilize the other side right with the n.r.a. i really would like would be someone like george w. bush because george w. bush is a gun owner a gun user but he's not so offensive to people on the other side don't worry about the n.r.a. there are those you guys here for you are still free to the n.r.a. there's nothing to be afraid of i think the clearest example of how the. n.r.a. influences present time in the tarpon ministration is the fact that you have the president sit down with members of congress at that meeting at the white house that was televised and you had you know the president sit with some of the victims from parkland and from other shootings. and appear. to policy ideas that would specifically help reduce easy access to guns we're going to

reverse that will. be somebody and then that evening he had dinner with wayne la pierre and chris cox from the n.r.a. and we've never heard. or about any of these policy ideas ever again. but those ideas have not been forgotten by young gun control advocates who have managed to secure some progress. to set for your florida high school that was the fight of my shooting guard taking a road trip to florida has now raised the age limit on buying a ar 15 guns from 18 to 21 courts in the state can have weapons taken away from individuals considered potentially dangerous but tyra hammonds and other activists are already planning the next steps in their campaign of prevention which also involves calling for action from the nation's centers for disease control and we

have our template policy which is the c.d.c. saying that they need to understand that this is an epidemic that is happening and it's crucial because they still don't believe that this is a problem in our society so they have not made it a priority to let the public know that gun violence is a huge topic that is or what we've been doing a 2nd is the safe storage policy we want parents to know that we've got to be about see and really the 1st part of the gun owners should know where your gun is because you were the one who walked into the store and purchase it and you're the one who walked out and he's only responsible and of course universal background checks there's a couple more but like those are these are made with. police soon survivors of parkland and other school shootings are now adding their voices about rage to the debate on the country's gun laws but so far those voices have been falling on deaf or closed ears meaningful reforms still seem unattainable but the n.r.a. is not lowering its guard because this younger generation is determined to see a less violent and safer america. they're able to keep up. the call

they're able to mobilize people they've become a kid. when i talk to people who work on their day they often ask me you know why don't you just. get rid of them i don't want to make guns illegal i'd try to remind people that there are so many kids we have so many hundreds of millions of guns in america. that's beginning to change because the way change happens in american society is we go into a part of the cycle people see how bad it is and then they revolt the other way this is the beginning of something and moving forward we'll see that changed there is plenty that can be done short of banning guns that could happen in the future it's just a question of you know are we out of the inflexion are we at a point where it actually is changing. or is the n.r.a.

going to remain the powerful institution that is america's deadly love of guns is hugely divisive an ongoing battle for power corporate influence and money. one continent. 700000000 people. all with their own personal stories. we explore every day life. when europeans fear and what they hope for. some kids on the earth. he was 90 minutes on d w. being told for is for me. is for. beethoven
