it as agents of the rush and state now in response to that, the russian foreign ministry today has said that the decisions of the european court of human rights are becoming increasingly, russo phobic one. william, here's more evidence that the european court of human rights positioning itself as an international judicial authority is trying to play political role. and it's bit to cultivate an atmosphere 1st of phobia. we have become so popular in several western states. if there are any further international consequences of this, if there's any further reaction from any of the sides, i'll let you know and i'll help you get through it. okay, just an update from germany. the story brought the start of the bulletin police have now arrested a man who took to drive as hostage on a tourist bus in bavaria, in se germany, it's understood that the passenger was arm, but no motives being given. and there were no tourists on board that bus at the time. okay,

i'll have your next to off the update off. we've met an oregon community wrestling with its gun laws nearly a decade after a deadly mile shooting. 101 seconds is next on the oh right now, there are 2000000000 people who are overweight or obese. it's profitable to sell food that is fatty and sugary and faulty and addicted. not at the individual level. it's not individual willpower. and if we go on believing that will never change as obesity epidemic, that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment, ah, what's driving the mac? it's corporate. me

the the news. welcome back to the lars lars to show it 7 minutes after the hour. and i'm in one of the best places you can ever be on a friday for 1st amendment friday because we're making it a 2nd amendment friday. i'm in northwest armory on se mclaughlin, this place is a mad house today. it looks like, you know, shopping day after thanksgiving. our business has been exponential amount of ground. there's been a lot more interest in personal protection. since there's been a couple of national tragedies, there's also been a lot more interest with the possibility of legislation and people concerned that they're not going to be able to get access to the things that they used to be able to have access to the organ legislatures considering for really bad bills,

they would take away people's right to carry guns in various places, including one of them would limit your ability to carry in a school. if the janitor, it's sandy hook, elementary, had carried a pistol and he heard the shooting down the hallway and people screaming and then saw a young man not in a police uniform running at him with an a r 15 and had shouted to the guys, stop and then pulled his pistol out and shot adam lanza would that have been a good thing or a bad thing. the folks like jenny burdick and those, you know those nit, which, why would they think it would be a bad thing for people, legitimate law abiding people to carry a pistol on his plan. so rally started today, i'll be saying a few words and then introducing other legislators who are coming. you heard anything about protests. we expect to counter protest

me. you have like the little sleeves were going down. the salem seats fires, holding a rally, and we're going to go show them that they're not going to hear what they're getting, the the safety of our, of our families, of our children. is there the right to me? and i mean, we are more than a 1000 orleans in more than 90. i always did a fight against the british would have taken your step. there wouldn't be

a united states today or you know, so thank you all for coming. you guys are going to make a difference. you really are. the 2nd amendment was created to keep me and i think government in check government got to talk about i think that people should be able to head. i think people should be able to target to day, but they do not need a weapon. i always hear what you say. it's ok. no, you just shout me down. so you're not, you're not reasonable if you want us to respect your opinion, but you won't respect these because it legislation provide common sense gun control, which is why we're god massacres. children. why and i'm anti guns that have to have known, and we would are 3 years. you'd have a lot less mass occurring. your guys

john? oh, i'm in the hands of a good not a bad to be got my hands it a bad person. possible law because what we're going to do is we're going to do a series of panels, you know, encourage all the governors you talk to to come what, when the time comes, i'm finding that people are pretty devastating disease. people have never stood up to the opposition. you, you have years of experience. you're used to kind of intimidation. you're about to hear very angry voice mail from someone out there. stupid more guns and you can count. never give

them up. you received me $8.10 i think from one to save hitler and stalin would be so proud of you. you guys are pathetic. you are a waste of the oxygen i breathe. it's just too bad that you, people were a star from the nipple, or maybe you guys would have all your brain cells. lynching is an extra judicial execution carried out by a mob, often by hanging, but also by burning at the stake. and signs are again called gun advocates. intimidating law may cause with threatening e mails in video surveillance. joining me out oregon state senator jenny bird, dick, you cancelled the town hall meeting and then what did they do? i did, and i, when i cancelled the town hall meeting,

i didn't want to say anything inflammatory. so i just said the standard scheduling conflict. well, they showed up at my house and they still, they stayed in front of my house for 2 and a half hours taping. everything i did and then they put it on the web. and their point was that i didn't in fact have a scheduling conflict. but they ran my address and they ran very threatening comments about it. does that all right, you are good. i didn't know any of that. what's going on? my goodness. yeah. watching you take out your direct. it was really creepy. i'm not happy about them coming into the camp of my team and i provided physical security for sen. birdie, probably 3 or 4 occasions in the portal area. people had confronted her, and one case she was walking to her car and somebody jumped out of the brush. certainly we really took this quite seriously. when congresswoman gifford was shot

in tucson, arizona. you know, how do you know something like that's gonna happen? so we believed at that point that she had a legitimate right to be concerned about her welfare. i me, she's a public figure. people understand that public figures don't really have privacy. i think jenny berdigs edge, she had what's coming to her, having issues that guarantees you know, step down, she should just get over it and move on and quit her job. there's nobody likes i'm not bitter at all. by the way. show you this this one with my for, for such as play out myself.

it's the heritage that i have a lot of families from myself. this me makers plan marathon public hearing on for bills. they include a ban on guns in schools and criminal background checks for private gun sales. so we should be there by. so this is telling me 730 i mean, hopefully this will be a good forum and people will be open to everyone's message on all sides of the issue. none of us can replace steve, but we can try to make things better. i

back in january, my friend invited me to this community meeting about can safety a literally just stood out there and said, hey, this is why i am my mom was count town center and silence around me by just standing up and saying that i made a real for everyone. i realize that that moment i do have a voice. maybe i can make an impact. me. i want people to remember. i don't want people to forget that people were murdered and how they were murdered. and that we need to change the cycle of violence seems to be going on in our communities. me day me politicians back down just because they don't want to take the

harassment. and that is what results in no change. and i just refused to be intimidated because i can't in good conscience after newtown, back down i i this issue is very simple to members in the public. somehow when you get into the charge environment in this building, it becomes more difficult. good morning everyone. thank you for being here. i'm going ahead and open up the senate committee on judiciary this morning. we have 4 bills that are before us, that we're going to be taking public testimony. each of these bills have amendments that will change the actual purpose of the bills. in conducting today's hearing, i ask that everyone to be respectful to the speakers and their views, even though you may disagree with those positions. i think it's very important that

we have this hearing today to decide on what if anything will be moving forward. senate bill $700.00 would finish closing the loophole to require background checks for all guns sales. the bills will do nothing but target law abiding citizens. they are not going to affect the criminals. they don't solve any of the problems that we've had. the fact that this state continues to allow the private sale of guns without background checks is reckless here, responsible and downright dangerous. none of these bills will keep the guns out of the hands of a single criminal or madman. if more people had been killed o'clock in this town center, we would have a more comprehensive law where legislating a reaction to a tragedy that was prevent. it is true, criminals will always get guns, but let's make it harder for them for women and those with disabilities. guns are the great equalizer bill. $347.00 would allow the school district rather than one advocacy group or another to decide what really is a safe school. there is no place in our schools, but guns again,

free zones might as well be advertised as potential killing zones. students were almost unanimous in their opinion, that their sense of security would not be enhanced with additional weapons on site . you need somebody at the school to stop that person. the laws we have and assistance we have in place do not work. dana ray can spread their money around it and their influence, but it's only you folks, the legislators that can write and pass the was, but we all live by the i thank you very much man. across the board to defer to focus bittman, go ball. but me, o, o, o i o, god,

me, i, i, i, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy for station let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk

with the ah and our next penalties come forward. none of these bills would have stopped the shooter that killed my mother, a cart miss tom center. still, it is an important action for this legislature to demonstrate that they are serious about making our communities safer. reducing gun violence is a complicated issue,

but that is not an excuse for an action. i'm here today and host holding a dialogue, i'm going to safety. we don't make the same as somebody guided believing that this couldn't happen to me. it could easily have been your wife, your husband, your daughter, or your son. or remember katrina. you remember 911. what happened? overnight and nothing mattered. politics didn't matter where you were from, didn't matter. people do anything to help the people that's never happened since this terrible tragedy, connecticut. it didn't happen. and i knew when it didn't happen. i mean, if you slaughtered children the way they were slaughtered and you slaughters 6 students, 6 teachers who are trying to defend their bodies and defend them the way they were slaughter and that can't bring us together instantly. there my friend, this thing will never come together. me

i me ah, ah, there are now 6 state associations and 262 individual sheriffs are on record opposing any new gun control legislation this week. the sheriffs of 5 oregon county sent out letters that they would not support laws passed by congress, that trump the liberties of citizens in addressed to vice president joe biden. i will not tolerate, nor will i permit any federal incursion within the exterior boundaries of grant county, oregon, or any type of gun control legislation, aimed at disarming law abiding citizens is a goal or objective a share for grant county. i to

a publicly state that i will refuse to participate or stand idly by while people i represent are made into criminals duty or unconstitutional actions. this is my basic police class. back in the late eighty's, when i went to the police academy, things are happening in our country right now. that 4050 years ago, it was unthinkable about people, the mass casualties and the killings in the bombings. and i don't like it either, but i think the people need to take responsibility into their own hands and be prepared. i heard one talk show one time they were talking about what our government has nukes. do you propose that you have nukes? and my thought was, if they're gonna use a nuke against me, i would like to have a new to level the playing field. you know it's, it's a little unrealistic. but let's, let's be realistic that if our government or anybody else is going to use a tank against us, it would be nice to know that i have the same ability of protect the people who

have elected me in the office. that i could step to that same level. i don't anticipate ever wanting or having to have a tank or use for one. but if somebody was to use one against me, it would be in our, in our best interest to be able to defend ourselves. and that's what 2nd amendments all about me . i'm not in the camp of anti government, but i think less government intervention into our lives would be a good thing. and i think there's a big divide there between what we call western oregon or the valley. the portland area and rural oregon a lot of what we get from the politicians is a need your reaction. i don't have

a tremendous amount of ease in how they do things. and i think the, the gun control wherever you want to call it is a very good example of that killed that blanco's me. i don't know the solutions to lessen the chance of a sandy hood type incident is going to come from gun control. and it's much deeper than that. do i know what the answer is? no, because there's, i think it's a very complicated, very complex problem. guns we're part of it. we have to decide what we're willing to accept on both sides of the fence. you know, are we willing to accept what happened? you know, in these different instances? if not, then what are we willing to accept, you know, laws and rules to lessen the potential that happening again?

my name is frances wheeler. my husband, david, me. we live in sandy hook, connecticut. david and i have 2 sons. our older son, nate, soon to be 10 years old, is a 4th grader at sandy hook elementary school. i understand then page 6 was murdered in his 1st grade classroom on december 14th, exactly 4 months ago this weekend. i've heard people say that the tidal wave of anguish i country felt on 1214 has received it. but not for us to

us. it feels as if it happened just yesterday. please help us do something before our tragedy because your tragedy. we have to convince the senate to come together and pass common sense gone, responsibility, reforms that will make our communities safer and prevent more tragedies like the one we never thought. what happened to us hope to see the moment when real change begins me i talk about making a difference when your mind watching pain the pain

and how she was able to rise above her own pain to try to keep others from having to experience pain more than 3000 people had died since sandy hook, every single one of them had families who are experiencing that pain. and she's trying to do something about it. even though she is in desperate pain herself. really admire her. as it makes you feel, watching her stand up like that. so public going? well, it certainly certainly drives me. you know, i, i'm a legislator and i haven't had any kind of loss in my family, knock on wood. but people are in depending on me and my colleagues to keep them

safe and to have reasonable gun laws. so that is kind of thing. what happened again i need to find a kleenex ah, in i i tell ya, flipping vote. they couldn't believe it. i thought for sure, was going to do it. a few months ago, kevin respond tragedies this country took up the cause of protecting more of our

people. from a few minutes ago, a minority in the united states senate decided it wasn't worth it. we had a democrat and they were both owners with rates when they come together to write a common sense, compromise on background sense. in fact, even again, all right, used to support expand the background checks, but instead of supporting this compromise, the gun lobby and its allies wilfully lied about the bill. goes why i got that. i didn't sense minority got hours and that in turn, intimidated a lot of centers after i saw the boat didn't pass, i just was absolutely crushed and thought that all the senators,

the entire senate should be ashamed of itself. if those kind of weapons were less available or harder to get, we wouldn't have a lot of shootings and we certainly wouldn't have the number of deaths. i'm convinced that me who you know i am, i was present sky and he gave me an update on what's going on. yeah. so basically what this move means is the senate president has actually taken the bills and referred them to the rules committee without sending him to the floor 1st because

he thinks that they won't pass. right. he doesn't think they have the votes. i disagree. we're talking about people who are going to be running for reelection. so, you know, it's one thing for the republicans because the republicans know that the president does not like to bring against vision. cars bring bills to the floor without the votes to pass. so naturally they're going to say, we're not going to vote for it, hoping to keep it off the floor altogether. okay? because then if they don't have to vote hide from the issue. i checked, it seems like a no brainer to me. i don't know why we're even having to yeah, i mean we were disappointed that there weren't like stronger bel cable. so the fact that be really honestly they're really weak. bell can't even get past

that. they can't get past me. the long long when i would show the wrong one, i'll just don't rule out the thing because the after an engagement equals the trail, when so many find themselves will depart. we choose to look for common ground

in you know, one thing we don't talk about america is class or other countries from class war like re, britain is a prime example. but in america typically no, except now. yeah. the a man shoots that a petrol station, cassia in germany, after being off to wear a mask, sparking horror and debate in the countries media. that's frustration grows with kobe restrictions, us president joe biden center bally, and called to america's allies and talks pace that the un that admitted unprecedented dispute with nato ally, france, and accusations of a cold war mentality from china. and a day of morning declared in the central rush.
