2:30 am
twice over the last few days. they used a battering ram and cut through the gara door with a blow torch tsearch for evidence. law enforcement sources tell cbs news that marquez checked into a mental health facility hours after the shooting. he has not been arrested and today is talking to o investigators. so far federal agents have conducted more than 400 interviews, and they're still trying to determine a motive. john bowdich is with the fbi. >> we have learned and believe that both subjects were radicalized and had been very active quite some time. now, how did that happen? the question we're trying to get at. >> reporter: investigators know farook met his wife in saudi arabia where she moved from pakistan. she was educated as a pharmacist. chaz harrison wawaone of farook's coworkers. >> i asked him about his wife. he was very secretive about his wife. he didt want to reveal much about his wife. >> reporter: he says farook talked about wanting to leave the country for good.

quote
2:32 am
we cannot turn against one other by letting thihifight be defined as a war between america and islam. that too is what groups like isil want. isil does not speak for islam. they are thugs and killers, part of a cult of death. >> chief white house correspondent major garrett has more. >> reporter: the reviews are in, they're lukewarm to be charitable. the white house was bracing for precisely that. so why did the president give an oval office address that had no new news or new ideas or military strategies against isis? the genesis of this speech started satuay here at the white house after the president met with his national security team. it was the consensus that this administration was losing control, losing grip on the entire national conversation about isis, and the president needed to get involved in that conversation to try to accomplish three things. first, to convey to the nation that the campaign against isis is more muscular and more aggressive.
2:33 am
runs. the british are e w bombing in syria. there are troop commitments from germany and much greater intelligence sharing with the french. the president also wanted to address the gun control argument. even though the political climate on capitol hill with republicans in control of the house and senate remains hostile, the president believes the fact pattern in san bernardino strengthens his gun control argument and he wanted to make that case. thirdly and possibly most important when you talk to peopop here at the white house, the president believes the country could turn on itself, and this message of tolerance for muslim-americans is not just about that, pure tolerance, but a counterterrorism strategy. the president believes it is crucial that this country maintain good, solid working relationships with the muslim community in this country. not st as a matter of tolerarae, but as a matter of counterterrorism success being able to detect, infiltrate and stop terrorist attacks before they start. there was a good deat of conversation whether this
2:34 am
address today or tonight. but the president wanted the largest primetime audience he could find, sunday was it. he knows the reviews are tepid. but this president has long relied o ospeeches and ignoreded short-term analysis, whethth it 's rhetoric or strategy to defeat isis.

into the country. last night, president obama urged the nation not to discrimina against american muslims. >> if we're to succeed in defeating terrorism, we must enlist muslim communities as some of our strongest allies rather than push them away through suspicion and hate. thatatoes not mean denying the fact that an extremist ideology has spread within some muslim communities. it's a real problem that mususms must confront without t cuse. >> reporter: trump's republican opponents uniformly condemned his proposal. ben carson said everyone entering the country should register and be monitored but, "i would not advocate e ing selective on one's religion." john kasich said trump's idea was "more of the outrageous divisiveness that characterizes his every breath." democratic presidential candidates issued withereng criticism of trump. hillary clinton called the comments reprehensibib and

system will change, but it didn't say how. jeff pegues tried to cut through the muddle. >> i'll be announcing soon hopefully what our new system is that i think reflects the current environment and the current realities. >> reporter: secretary of homeland security jeh johnson said the current system is flawed. the original color-coded warnings, developed after 9/11, were criticized for sending out too many alerts. the current system has never sent out an alert because it requires an imminent threat. the modification will lowewethe threshold for warning the american public. it is an acknowledgment of the changing nature of the threat, sothing president obama highlighted last night. >> as we'v'vbecome better at preventing complex, multifaceted attacks like 9/11, terrorists turn to less complicated acts of violence like the mass shootings all too common in our society. >> reporter: the san bernardino shooters were not under

let stand a local law in illinois that bans semiaomatic weapons and large- capacity magazines. jan crawford is following this. >> reporter: the justices gave no reason for why they turned down the challenge to the ban on assault weapons in an illinois town. but in dissent, justin clarence thomas, joined by justice antonin scalia, said lower-court rulings upholding the bans were relegating the second amendment to a second class s ght. the e preme court in 2008 struck down a handgun ban in the district of columbia, ruling that the second amendment protects a person's right to bear arms for self-defense in the home. but in the years since, lower federal courts have narrowly applied the landmark decision, allowing what they consider reasonable gun restrictions, bans on large-e-pacity semiautomatic firearms, like the commonly owned ar-15. seven states and d.c. have laws banning possession of those weapons. the city of highland park passed

mamar nancy rotering saiaiit was due in part to the shooting at sandy hook elementary school. >> it's well past time to take action to reduce the gun violence that threatens our community's safety, our r tion's safety and inflicts fear and pain on countless families and communities. >> reporter: but gun rights supporters say the bans cover guns lawfully used by millions of americans for self-defense and for sport. [ gunfire ] today's order is unlikely to encourage sweeping change. 39 states where such guns are legal have laws blocking cities from passing lal restrictions. now, there typically has to be a conflict in the lower courts before the justices will step in, and so far, scott, all those lower courts are in agreemento uphold these bans. >> jan crawford at the supreme cocot. jan, thaha you. there's new video of another police shooting in chicago, but

3:29 am
is more muscular and more aggressive. there are mo u.s. bombing runs. the british are now bombing in syria. there are tro commitments from germany and much greater intelligence sharing with the french. the president also wanted to address the gun control argument. even though the political climate on capitol hill with republicans in control of the house and senate remains hostile, the president believes the fact pattern in san bernardino strengthens his gun control gument and he wanted to make that case. thirdly and possibly most important whenenou talk to pepele here at the white house, the president believes the country could turn on itself, and this message of tolerance for muslim-americans is not just about that, pure tolerance, but a counterterrorism stratete. the president believes it is crucial that this country maintain good, solid working relationships with the muslim community in this country. not just as a matter of tolerance, but as a matter of counterterrorism success being able to detect, infiltrate and stop terrorist attacks before they start.
