8:00. this show is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. "hannity" is next is next. >> sean: fox news alert. welcome to "hannity." we are following major breaking news stories. the iraqi people are being victimized by a liberal cultural hypocrisy that is penetrating every single aspect of our lives. the left, liberals like the claim they have more monopoly, superiority on race, women's rights, gay rights, religious freedom. it's a massive live. we will expose that lie. and as the harvey weinstein scandal is exposing come of the left only cares about one thing and one thing only -- money. laura ingraham is here with reaction. brand-new audio just released. attacking the president. listen to this. speak of the volatility -- --

sometimes i feel like she's on reality show. just putting on an act. >> sean: we will have a lot more of that tape and steve bannon is here tonight to react with some pretty strong words. also to form or nfl to make nfl greats are here after another controversial weekend on the football field. mike pence left the colts 40-49ers game. also tonight, republican house majority steve scalise, he was a victim of that shooting, he will respond to the left call for gun control after the biggest shooting. tonight, we have two major announcements. big ones you do not want to miss. but first, tonight's important breaking news opening monologue. this weekend, more and more disturbing activations emerged

about hollywood executive and major, major democratic donor harvey weinstein. after mounting allegations of sexual harassment, he was actually fired by his own company. that's good news. what details of what weinstein is accused of doing are beyond shocking. what is even more disturbing is the fact that for 30 years, this guy has been praised by the left, liberals, hollywood and democrats. let me explain. the web site -- they analyze over 1400 academy award acceptance speeches. harvey weinstein ranked second for the most thanked person. back in 2012, meryl streep even called weinstein god and ends only just a handful of celebrities that are now speaking out against weinstein in the face of these accusations. where is the outrage and condemnation from hollywood? if the tables were turned in this was a conservative in the same situation, hollywood

liberals would be enraged. the media would be enraged. since it's one of their own, it's mostly crickets. the silence is deafening. another example of how hollywood has ignored this scandal, look at this. all these late-night comedians. jimmy kimmel, jimmy fallon, seth meyers, james gordon. they did not mention it at all during their shows. "saturday night live," a show that ruthlessly mocks president trump and all conservatives -- they had jokes written about weinstein but never made air. what's worse is that the "snl" creator, lorne michaels, told the daily mail that the reason he did not go after weinstein's because it's "a new york thing." it really? what he really meant was it's a hypocrisy thing. you can't forget about lisa bloom. she swoops in to represent them with a major press conference to attack conservatives. big surprise. she was actually advising

wednesday before resigning this weekend. they made the announcement via tweeter -- twitter, not tweeter. you would think since bloom is the so-called champion of women's rights that she would never, ever consider working for weinstein. her hypocrisy is stunning but not surprising. the same goes for many democrats. they took piles of money from harvey weinstein and only now after these allegations surfaced, some come in just a few but not all of them are beginning to give it back or give it to charity. look at these statistics. he donated he donated estimated $44,000 to hillary clinton since 1999. that's on top of the $15,000 he shelled out to a super pac for clinton. and gave money to the obama

victory fund. in the democratic national committee. he also wrote checks for over $76,000 for the democratic senatorial campaign committee. weinstein contributed over $2 million to democrats. that's only since the year 2000. some democrats are donating it to other liberal causes. they think that cleans their hands. no across-the-board outrage. no disgust. we can't forget the two biggest beneficiaries are of weinsteins contributions were barack obama and hillary clinton. they get to comment publicly about him. if it was a conservative, do you think they might have commented? this is what we were telling about you. they claim to care the most about women's rights. if they did, hillary clinton and her family foundation would never have taken money from countries like saudi arabia,

qatar, oman, kuwait. the uae. they treat women horribly. they kill. they kill gays and lesbians. they persecute christians and jews. they are completely full of it on every single issue that they lecture you that they are morally superior about over more republicans. the daily call reporting that there's a coffee shop owner in seattle, washington. we have the videotape of a group of christian antiabortion activists getting kicked out after a tirade because the owner could not tolerate their presence. watch this. >> there's nothing else you could say. >> so we are not welcome here? you are not willing to tolerate our presence? >> you are offensive. >> we are in a coffee shop. >> believe [bleep] >> are you o

tolerate it? answer my [bleep] question. i don't have to tolerate this. tell all your [bleep] friends not to come here. >> okay? >> sean: he's talking about anal sex with jesus christ, just to offend people. have you heard anything about this in the destroy-trump-media? probably not. he probably didn't see the tape until right now. the left, they say they care about religious liberty, especially when it comes to christians in this country. why do i believe this was another religion who i suspect there would be widespread outrage, lawsuits, the left would be apoplectic. the media would be covering it

24/7, 365. in this case, they are christians and it doesn't seem to matter to them. then there's this example that the free beacon is reporting on. a group of students trying to shut down an exam at berkeley because of the stress they are enduring and claiming racism. watch this. >> our emotional, and physical stress on our everyday life. >> is that what you are trying to do? >> we can walk outside. we can continue the conversation. >> you are more than welcome too that. >> i don't understand. i really don't understand.

people are dying out there. >> sean: we reached a point of cultural insanity. the left claims they are all first free speech but will look what happens at the so-called home of freedom of speech. we cannot forget that conservatives have pretty much been essentially blocked from speaking at uc berkeley. the left does not care about this country's history or culture. look at these videos from earlier today. the columbus day protest. the bells had no problem supporting people defacing, vandalizing our history, statues. do you know what? what about what other people think? what about tolerance? when leftists were tearing down or removing confederate moments. here it goes even further. the one thing the left does not seem to care about is the nfl. when it is -- when they dissed her disrespect our flag, our anthem. they are out there protesting the national anthem.

mike pence walked out of yesterday's nfl game following the national anthem protest. the vice president and second lady attended the game in indianapolis. after handful of 49ers refused to honor the flag, vice president pence and his wife headed to the exits. he tweeted... a big debate later in the program. president trump took the twitter writing... good for the vice president, taking a stand. americans are sick and tired of seeing these players protesting the flag and not honoring those great men and women that fought, bled, and died. this is a country that gives an opportunity to make millions of dollars. playing a game. nfl owners are beginning to

start to realize that millions are at stake here and the american people are fed up for what is now latently disrespectful behavior. dallas cowboys owner jerry jones said players who protects the national anthem, they are not going to play. the miami dolphins owner is saying it's incumbent on players to stand and salute the flag of the united states. finally, it's about time these owners did something. pointed out a couple weeks ago, the game operations manual says all players must be on the sideline for the national anthem. they must stand at attention, face the flag. hold their helmets and their left hand and refrain from talking or face discipline such as fines, suspensions, , and or forfeiture of draft choices. you can't do this in the end zone. or you can't twerk or be offensive to the other team or gloat. you can't put 9/11, we will

never forget on your cleats. if you can't honor police officers playing in dallas. after the vice president left the nfl game, the left and liberal mainstream media went into full on freak out mode. do you remember espn's host jemele hello? hill was suspended by espn for two weeks after calling for fans to boycott advertisers of the dallas cowboys. it's interesting how she got suspended for that and not for attacking the president of the united states. here's the bottom line, this country is divided culturally because the left is hypocritical and inconsistent. they have phony moral outrage but only when it suits their political agenda. they only care about their only outrage over the conservative scandals, not liberal ones. they pretend to have the moral authority on issues like race, women's rights, gay rights, the list goes on and on.

the truth is this -- the left has been lying about all of that for a long time. this harvey weinstein scandal proves all of it. for the right price, the left and their silence can be bought. joining us now with more of the scum of the author of brand-new but just out today "billionaire at the barricades -- ," host ofe soon to be upcoming show following this show every night, a rear end studio appearance -- what's up, miss ingram? >> you're going to be throwing it to me at 10:00. >> sean: yeah, throw it to him. [laughs] >> surprise victory. >> sean: i am tired every 2-4 years. racist, homophobic, xenophobic. sexist. it's a lie and they get away with a lie. >> the weinstein thing is a big deal. i heard rumors about this back

in 1999. my friend worked in the modeling industry. >> sean: i have a lot of friends in the modeling industry. >> they mentioned some things about weinstein. i didn't know who he was but it sounded pretty gross. this is part of the reason why so many working-class americans have tuned out to the so-called experts on the left and politics. because they claim that whether it is sandra fluker comes along and says there's a war on women being waged by republicans -- nobody takes them seriously. when michelle malkin or other conservative women are attacked on college campuses. they never speak out to defend them. >> sean: you've been shouted down. we all have. >> we are now just used to it. it's one thing if you're really for women, whatever they believe. but they are not. they are only for you if you ascribe to a certain set of views. >> sean: if hillary takes

money from harvey weinstein -- >> where is michelle obama? has she said anything? >> sean: i can't believe there is no outrage over the millions and millions she took from countries where men tell women how to dress. killing gays and lesbians. >> there's an -- they care aboug international institutions afloat and depriving the deplorables to run their own lives. they don't trust the voters. to make decisions for their own lives. they think washington should make those decisions. if you believe in the climate change attends, abortion agenda, reformulating the family, whatever the issue of the day is, if you stand with them, they will defend you to the end.

until they are shamed. >> sean: guess what? i love women, i am not the caricature -- for all these years, they've got one playbook. every election. >> the war on women, immigrants. remember a year ago, you and i were on the air. a year ago, they were saying if trump got elected, the global economy would take. because he's going to be a protectionist and isolationist. the u.s. market with the collapse. on election night, you had people on other cable channels morning people saying sell, sell, sell. >> sean: i was reading your book and this is fascinating to me -- tell me one part of trump's agenda, maybe trade would be one, that's not what reagan did to get the economy going. >> reagan saved harley-davidson.

cheap japanese motorcycles -- george w. bush saw the populist approach in taxing, imports of coal, and cheap steel from china and asia. obama did a little tariff. trump wants to do more tariffs. the republican party has been a cold, protectionist party. guess what they are protecting? american workers. trump went into that understanding mentality a year ago. trade is great. trade isn't a theory we debate at the american enterprise institute on a saturday afternoon. trade is something we believe in because it betters the lives of the average american. that's what trump understands. >> sean: with steve bannon who is up after you, it's amazing to me -- it -- >> it goes right to

"the new york times." i think corker, sean, is -- he's a nice guy but he's always been squarely about trump. i will tell the fox we were something. i ran into bob corker at an airport in april or may of 2016. may of -- right after trump was clearly going to be the nominee. he's very uncomfortable with the idea of trump as the nominee. i said well, you should talk to him and meet with donald trump. i think you would see what he's all about. he's about the regular person. the working people. >> sean: he was begging to be secretary of state. >> of course he did. he thought he might actually be the vice presidential pick. >> sean: you are going on a book tour which is the reason you can't be here for the next two weeks. >> i only write a book every four years. give me a break. >> sean: is phenomenal. go to my web site and your

web site. people are going to hear you speak. on the back, i don't know what happened on that part. >> he's been to teasing me about this cover. black lives matter. >> what? you are bizarre. oklahoma city. >> sean: will you sign a copy for me? when we come back, steve bannon is going to weigh in on the issue of bob corker in those republicans that have betrayed the president and you. in two major announcements as we continue. 26.2 miles, that's a marathon. and he does it with dr. scholl's. only dr. scholl's has massaging gel insoles that provide all-day comfort to keep him feeling more energized. dr. scholl's. born to move. you know win control? be this guy. check it out! self-appendectomy!

oh, that's really attached. that's why i rent from national. where i get the control to choose any car in the aisle i want, not some car they choose for me. which makes me one smooth operator. ah! still a little tender. (vo) go national. go like a pro. we see their hunger. their courage. we see their dreams.

we see the things that built our nation. and we wonder, what would happen if everyone had equal access to education? what would they discover? what new worlds would they build? that's why we built a university for everyone. southern new hampshire university.

>> yeah, you know, it's been around. again, i don't wish him harm. generally speaking, in the middle-of-the-road. the best with foreign policy, i wish that would stop. as evident this morning, that's just something he has to do.

>> sometimes, i feel like he's on a reality show of some kind. foreign policy issues. we could be heading towards world war iii, with these comments he's making. i'm sure that bothers me. >> sean: bob corker slamming president trump to "the new york times." he set to retire at the end of his term but chief strategist steve bannon is launching a new effort with plans to back primary opponents to nearly every republican up for reelection. think alabama, executive chairman of breitbart news. how are you? you lost weight since he left the white house. you look good. >> i feel great. >> sean: he's so arrogant.

such an elitist snob. the senate hasn't done a thing, steve. nothing. >> the american people see, this is what they think about president trump behind closed doors. he happened to tell "the new york times" exactly what he thought. it is totally unacceptable. in the tide of war, we have troops in afghanistan. we have a major problem. it could be like world war i. in the persian gulf. american lives at risk every day. he tweets on sunday that it's like the adult -- someone didn't have the morning shift. then he has the audacity to go to "the new york times"? >> sean: he did not know it was going to air. that's what i think, by the way. i'm not sure he knew it was going to be on tape. >> phil rucker yesterday in "the washington post," he said there's only two or three senators on capitol hill that have president trump's back. when you want to talk about why

there's no repeal and replace, why there's no tax cut or tax reform, why there's no infrastructure bill, you saw it right there. corker, mcconnell, the entire click -- the globalist click on capitol hill has to go. if we need any more proof about what we think, it's an absolute -- >> sean: i've been told by people in the room, lindsey graham. corker, even mcconnell. they trashed the president. and yet, they can't get any of their promise is. they are the swamp. republicans are weak and pathetic and they are lacking in identity. the forgotten men and women, the voters are being let down. >> they have total contempt for the forgotten man and the base. that's what you saw and alabama. when they came, luther strange. and destroyed judge moore, you saw that. the base totally judged him.

these people have no respect for the working men and women. senator corker is an absolute disgrace. one of the best people around -- he never talks about this. she called for senator corker to resign. >> sean: i agree with him. >> to replace him with marsha blackburn, a real conservative. if bob corker had any honor or decency, he should resign immediately. he should not let those -- >> sean: he would not win, steve. >> he got out because he saw what happened and alabama. he should get back in. he may get crushed. >> sean: marsha black were would crush him. marsha blackburn. how does the president's agenda, if he's got a hostile republicans that are willing to go on a suicide mission, if they don't get anything accomplished

like the budget, repeal and replace, they don't even want to fund the border wall. if they don't do those things, they will suffer in 2018. president trump is not up until 2020. >> there's a basic agenda that trump won on and he ran on it. michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania. this agenda works. the american people voted for it. by the way, mcconnell would not be majority leader unless trump in north carolina and missouri and wisconsin was able to carry those senators across the finish line. it's incumbent upon them to back president trump's plan but you don't see it. once he saw it corker said today, it's what they talk about. that's why i left the white house. i said i'm going after the republican establishment. there's a coalition. coming together. it's going to challenge every republican incumbent except for ted cruz. moran hatch in utah. the chief of staff for mike lee

said he will set up an exploratory committee. in north dakota. in mississippi. >> sean: mcdaniel. >> these names will come out over the next several weeks. >> sean: i know a lot of people didn't like in 2010 for example, delaware. i thought christine o'donnell was a nice woman. you are picking the rock-solid rock-solid -- >> the grassroots organizations. u.s. people announced this week what they will have experience in government. it's not like 2010. it was the beginning of the tea party went things were first getting going. they will take on incumbents in every state. >> sean: you said in a 60 minutes interview that you are a street fighter. i am a street fighter. i'm not supporting any republican incumbent that hasn't gotten the job done.

not one, steve. i've refused. they've betrayed the american people. they betrayed their promises. how do you make a promise for seven and a half years and not fulfill it? >> it's a lack of sense of urgency. their wives are working two jobs, they are working two jobs, they know the economic hate crimes that are being perpetuated on the american workingmen and women in this country because of the trade deal. >> sean: is steve bannon declaring war on the establishment that are not for the working men and women in this country? >> 100%. we are declaring war on the republican establishment that does not back the agenda of the tom trump on and the president of the united states, that's the agenda we know that back the working men and women. >> sean: you know what mcconnell did in alabama. to put in all their money. >> karl rove, their donors are

coming to us because they are tired of having their money burned up by trying to destroy people like judge moore. there's a new game in town. we are to cut off the oxidant to mitch mcconnell. his biggest asset is the money. we are going to make it the biggest -- tooth and nail. >> sean: the people that voted in 2010, 2014, 2016? it's a long time for the american people to wait. >> take your country back. you have to grind out day in and day out for the next 5-10-15-20 years. it took us a long time to get here. there's no magic wand. to blow up this establishment. i hate to tell people, you're going to have to work but the great determination and courage of the working men and women, we are going to win. >> sean: i'm glad you are not going after ted cruz. he is one of the few -- he stood there and said we have the constitutional authority to not fund obamacare.

and his own party betrayed him. >> you are a good man, i've got to tell you. even safe incumbents, you have to understand something. just voting is not good enough. you have to have a sense of urgency. we are coming after all of them. we are going to win. >> sean: from a comeback, two nfl greats are going to battle and debate the ongoing national anthem controversy. and we have two big announcements, steve scalise is going to join us after he was shot on the baseball field in washington, d.c. he wants to talk gun control, straight ahead. (vo) do not go gentle into that good night, old age should burn and rave at close of day; rage, rage against the dying of the light. do not go gentle into that good night.

>> sean: welcome back to "hannity." another controversial week for the nfl. vice president mike pence walked out with on in the colts-49ers.

liberalism or how to turn good men into whiners,, and wimps. former nfl great -- burgess owens. and spencer tillman. both of you are friends of mine. we start with you. a family of four goes to a game. the kids want jerseys, another $200. you get a beer, $400 a beer. a couple of hot dogs and popcorn. if the 700-$800 day. most americans are speaking loudly. they are saying they want to honor their flag and their country and their anthem because men fought, bled, and died fighting under that flag. players are not being responsive. i kind of like what robert kraft said. i will go and match you dollar for dollar. let's help our community out. this is not going to end well for the nfl, spencer.

>> it can and well for the nfl. when all this began with: kaepernick -- he bad in a manne. he got together with a navy seal and they recommended he kneel. almost the universal sign of respect. understand we live in a world of images and impressions. everybody does not have the same understanding of what it means. for most of us, there is an inextricable connection between the flag, patriotism, and the brave men and women who fought. >> sean: 100,000 have died fighting under that flag. i know you are a patriot. colin kaepernick, this guy donated to a cop killer's foundation. had cops depicted as pigs on his socks. i guy that -- a guy that praises the murderous dictator and thug, fidel castro.

they are going to lose the men and women that want to go and be entertained and also honor their country. i don't think the nfl has much more time. >> the way i look at it, i see the free market taking care of itself. they are going to make a change. this is the greatest opportunity the president has given us. we are not talking about true issues. i think it's time we talk about the root cause. we've had a black caucus, john lewis -- supposed leaders. even if they are totally incompetent or brilliant lady competent, they've done nothing for the black race and as we talk about the misery happening to our race, these guys are silent. 80% of black females are unemployed. 70% of black men leave their families and we are down to 3.8% -- no one is talking about it and have not talked about it

for eight years. marxists and socialists don't care. >> every buddy is talking about in the african-american community, those statistics you quoted while true and important, it's a different context. there's very little to do with anything that happened with what: copper and acted. and what is discussed today. they had a chance to nip it in the bud. our vice president had a great opportunity. i respect his opinion but if i'm going to make the track to see two teams -- to win between the two of them, i'm going to tell you what the point is. if he goes to the fall locker room and spend some time and ask some of those players why not? the engagement, we are not listening to one another. i equate it to divorce. the person or the husband, that doesn't listen to the wife that she is not happy with the

marriage or the relationship, totally bereft of the fact that when he has served papers, he is shocked and surprised it happens. you must understand people's causes. >> here's what we we are dealing with. our country has been this way forever. we have a dbs ideology, pushed by the democratic party. the strategy is misery. a lot of these people don't know the facts you just gave, unfortunately. these guys know what they are doing. it's been a long term plan for a long time. how many americans do not know the greatness of the black race who think we were strictly a race that came out of slavery? >> sean: hang on. the first black president in american history. historic. 3900 people murdered in his adopted hometown of chicago while he is president.

he barely heard him ever talk about it. 18,000 shootings in chicago in the last six years of his presidency. here's my point, on this program, spencer -- i scrolled the names of all those people that we never hear about. he commented on cambridge, ferguson, tree trayvon martin. he never went after what was literally a war zone in his own hometown. he could have done something about it. nfl players can do things as well. i will support charities. spencer, come to me tomorrow and say have a great charity for kids. burgess, tell me. i am in. so will a lot of other americans because we care about those kids and god's potential is in every one of those kids. >> i care about getting america together on the subject. although they are facts, they have little to do with the matter at hand.

we need engagement between the dissenters, the people on the right and left. >> sean: honor the country and their flag. honor it. >> can we agree that the experience we are talking about that everyone should honor is not the same for everyone in america? that's the difference. >> sean: running out of time. >> it's not the same for everyone in america. >> at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what our color is and what our background is, it's all about hope. if you are willing to tell it. we are telling our kids they don't have a chance. you and i sit here. >> i don't tell my kids that proved >> we tell all the other kids. >> i tell hundreds of thousand kids around the country, i disagree with what you are saying. i take offense to that. we take care of our community. >> sean: take care of the kids

in chicago. they're not putting them up in safe neighborhoods. i've got steve scalise. last word. >> back in 1964 when new york city was on the world stage, dr. martin luther king and a few other folks wanted to comment about what was taking place or not taking place in their communities. they deride him for that peaceful protest. what he said was really insightful. he said the conditions that make it necessary for me to have to engage -- we are talking about issues. you keep chasing ghosts. >> sean: i know it's getting a little loud. we are all passionate about this. it's not going to go well for the nfl. do you remember steve scalise? he wants to weigh in after las vegas on the gun control debate and to announcements you're going to like. straight ahead.

[vo] quickbooks introduces rodney.

>> sean: will come back to "hannity." the shooting in the las vegas -- predictably pushing for more gun control, the liberals in the mainstream media. >> a background check might solve it or another --

>> that's what i'm saying. one law is not going to fix the whole problem. >> a real gun debate, look at the facts. we need to look at what was done in a place like australia they had a gun buyback. >> even the nra accepts you don't have the rights to have an automatic weapon. what that is a constitutional limit that says but you are absolutely entitled to have a semiautomatic weapon? this is made up mumbo-jumbo. >> everybody agrees, there's something that should be done. there are some people that are concerned about what that means for the next thing down the line. do you go to semiautomatic? >> sean: joining us know, steve scalise who is still recovering after being shot over the summer. he's pushing back against the left's efforts to politicize what happened out in vegas. joining us now, steve scalise.

i'm so glad to see you. i want you to know in this audience -- thoughts and prayers are with you. i try to relay that to people on your staff. how are you doing, congressman? >> i appreciate the prayers. we felt them and receive them from you. it was uplifting during a tough time for me and my family. the power of prayer cannot be underestimated. i am a living example that miracles do happen. out on the ball field and after that. i'm lucky to be alive. it's really good to be here. >> sean: i remember getting an early report. you had had a massive number of blood transfusions. it was very touch and go. had doctors told you how close you were to maybe not recovering from this? >> probably about a month after when i was through all the surgeries.

i asked my main trauma surgeon, can you walk through what really happened? especially in the first few days that i was unconscious. i didn't come to until about the third day. he said the first day especially, there were two times where it could have the other way. you look at just getting to the hospital alive, my colleague said if an army ranger or someone who helped get people from the battlefield, he applied a tourniquet to slow the bleeding down. i would have bled out if i didn't have that tourniquet applied. i would not have even made it to the hospital. >> sean: what is your recollection of the shooting? >> i remember hearing the first shot. we are playing baseball. you are not thinking there's a gunman shooting. we are out on the ball field. i saw a tractor. i thought maybe it backfired and

then you heard a few more shots and at that point, i got hit and went down. i was hearing a lot of gunfire back and forth. that's when my security detail, they engaged the shooter. >> sean: they were amazing. in an open field with pistols. >> if they didn't have those guns to counter the shooter, it would have been a massacre. you know what he went out there intending to do. if it wasn't for the fact that he was confronted with other people who had guns, he would have gotten away with it. >> sean: it was heartbreaking last week. i interviewed a guy who was holding his wife of 32 years when she got shot in the back of the head and died in his arms. it nearly killed me. i wanted to play what he said. the country races into a big debate over the gun control. you lost your wife. when you hear that in juxtaposed with the president said, what's the right thing for the country

to do and how to handle it? >> it was a tragedy. something -- i still will never give up my rights. >> sean: i will never give up my rights. you were shot in that field that day. you are saying the same thing. dianne feinstein said this weekend i don't think there's any set of laws that could have prevented what happened in vegas. what is your answer to all of those that sold quickly raced to politicize this? >> my prayers are with the families, those people that lost loved ones and those that are still fighting for their lives. in any tragedy, your first thought ought to be how can we help the people that are suffering? the victims of a criminal act like this. let's pray for them first of all. in a case like what happened in las vegas, similar what happened to me. a lot of people needed blood. and yet, you get some people.
