for example if adam lanza's mother couldn't get her son to take his medication, she could go to court and require him to comply with his doctor's orders and take his medication. again, i'm not suggesting any one of these in isolation or a panacea, but there are things that we can do step by step, bit by bit to reduce the likelihood that these terrible mass shootings occur in the future. mr. president, on another note, we heard some great news yesterday in terms of our economy. consumer confidence has jumped to a 17-year high. optimism continues to surge as employers and payroll services across the country continue to implement the reforms to our tax code that we passed last december and the -- in the tax cuts and jobs act. what's more the treasury department released the new withholding tables that went into effect earlier this month and reflect the changes passed as part of the tax cuts and jobs act. i got a call from someone close to me. i'll leave it at that. i don't want to embarrass her. who said that she opened her paycheck, and she had $240 more in her paycheck than she had in

much like adam lanza went back to sandy hook. he hadn't been there in years. it's what the school represented in his mind. >> brad garrett with us, a former fbi agent, our terrorism analyst, brad, thank you, as always. unfortunately, always tough topics when we bring you on. in the meantime, what are schools to do in this country to protect our children? so many of them taking new steps, but can they ever be enough? here's abc's clayton sandell on that part of the story tonight. >> reporter: tonight what used to be unimaginable is the new reality. in small towns and big cities. the death toll of students, children killed in just the first six weeks of this year, now at least 19, another 23 injured. >> we need to lock down. >> reporter: for kids, lessons in math and science now come with lessons in how to react if a gunman attacks their campus. teachers taught to lock doors and block windows. police have changed their tactics, too, as we saw in this 2016 active shooter drill. at this colorado high school, police and firefighters train side-by-side to immediatel

vice president pence: and adam lanza's mother, who spoke to law enforcement, spoke to local officials. she was concerned over and over again. i know our colleagues from connecticut saw and lived to this. what with been able to do is to give families and to take action to remove those weapons for a set period of time or longer. make that a state law provision. people are working on what we can do continue to cent vise incentivizen do to states to do this. -- on what we can do to incentivize states to do this. it brings home this point. the vice president alluded to it and congressman rutherford touched on it. there are people who tried to do something. they called the fbi, the sheriff's office but legally they had no recourse to get ahead of this and stop it. in terms of taking away guns and placing them in a facility or some other measure with a court court order that prevented him from being able to do this. and even if law enforcement had gone to see them they would have been limited ultimately in their options as well. this is an idea that states can do and there may be something w

if they do talk to about the forensic toxicology and adam lanza. it's not the meds, it's when they stop taking the meds. lanza stopped doing it. james holmes, left home for the first time in his life six months before. he turned 18. when they stop taking their meds and they are not walking on the straight and narrow. you can get rid of the ar-15. it's military grade. you should see what my deer rifle can do. it wasn't an ar-15 it would and diesel pickup truck. kennedy: that's my point about this kid. i don't want to devolve into reading a sheet of nra talking points. but what concerns me is it's apparent there are people out there who have this violent form of mental illness that not enough people know how to treat and identify. so if all guns had been confiscated with, if they didn't exist, would his impulses also not be present? i don't believe that he would be a naturally easy going person. >> no. a prominent radio and tv celebrity doctor says he's 99% sure that this kid like a lot of russian orphans has fetal alcohol syndrome. i would warning m

adam lanza had a very detailed chart of school shootings that he wanted to score higher than these otheroes of his. one of the things we can do is not publicized their photos and their names. another thing we can do is the fbi, they were contacted and this person wrote his name on a comment saying he wanted to be a professional school shooter. somehow, able to outwit the fbi out of 12 people in the united states, they didn't find this needle in the haystack. i think we need to connect the dots there and finally another thing we can look at is he did have a history of mental health problems, what do we know about that? what could be factored in? i understand of the first amendment and freedom of expression .. declares that they want to be a school shooter has lost the right and their privilege to own weapons. >> shannon: door take? >> i was a public defender here in manhattan. i have seen the autopsy photos of kids that were killed. these look like pictures out of afghanistan, pictures out of yemen. we are better than this. when we have kids repeatedly being murdered, we have to ask why.

people like adam lanza, people like this, they will not attack hard targets. they'll attack soft targets because they're cowards. let's make the schools less soft and make them difficult target. >> a couple of ladies who have spent years and years and years in schools and will hear if they would like to be the ones who are armed. let's go straight to the source. gentlemen, thank you so much for the healthy conversation. i appreciate it. van jones, 7:00 saturday night, bringing together two victims of the las vegas shooting with one of the men who sold that killer his guns. organizers of the women's march and nba star steph curry will also be his guests. thank you. thank you very much. >>> still ahead here a former fbi assistant director joins me live to respond to attacks on that agency but first a teacher who has spent 25 years in broward county schools, the president of their union. let's ask her, how does she feel about the prospect of putting guns in the classroom? older. but prevagen helps your brain with an ingredient originally discovered... in jellyfis

the victims ranged in age from six to 56 years old. 20-year-old gunman adam lanza later killed himself as police approached the school. police say, the day''s shooting spree began in a house -- where adam shot and killed his mother. and the there was the shooting at columbine. on april 20th 19-99... 18-year-old eric harris and 17-year-old dylan klebold opened fire inside columbine high school in littleton, colorado. 12 students and one teacher were killed. 23 others were injured. after the shooting spree... harris and klebold turned the guns on themselves. the columbine school shooting is still ranked one of the worse mass shootings in u-s history.

adam lanza, the newton, connecticut shooter killed his mother and stole her rifle. but you can make it harder for them to do so, because for every one of these mass shootings that is publicized nationally, a lot of them are happening locally that you don't hear much about and again, they almost always involve mentally ill people who manage to legally acquire the weapon. we need to draw a line and it won't be easy to do, there's lots of obstacles in the way, constitutional, associat socialr obstacles but i think it has to be done. i think everyone agrees, president trump, the democratic party, the nra, the school protesters agree that the shooter in parkland should not have been allowed to have a gun and yet he had one. how do we work together to keep that from happening as you saw the other night in the town hall, all we heard was name calling, yelling and swearing. >> paul: we have to start the conversation. thank you for being here. >> thank you. >> paul: still ahead the trump administration announcing new sanctions against north korea in a bid to turn up the heat

listen, adam lanza's mom, before he killed her, after he shot up the children in newtown, she wantedhave him committed. and after that massacre in newtown, many parents came forward and said i'm scared of my mentally ill child who has had violent tendencies and they can't get those children committed. so there's a problem there. >> tucker: for sure. >> there's another problem, tucker that people don't want to talk, about that is that we have a family crises in this country. there are broken homes, broken families. there is moral crises. and we have families in schools that really, frankly a culture that's unwilling to talk about right from wrong. >> tucker: you are right. >> that's also a part of the problem that hollywood and the left is unwilling to talk about. >> tucker: yeah. turns out of the nuclear family worked pretty well. we should have thought about this before we destroyed it rachel, thank you very much. great to see you. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: rogue judges are determined to impose their will on this country regardless of what the law says, regardless of what vot

six adults including school staff and faculty before the shooter, adam lanza, turned the gun on himself. what if anything has been done to deal with these kinds of mass shootings since then by the u.s. congress? >> well, the honest answer is not a damn thing. this institution is not going to move. think about, as you said, 20 dead babies in connecticut. wasn't enough to move the heart of this place. we all learned of something called a bump stock after the las vegas shootings. this institution couldn't even muster the strength or the political will to push to move against bump stocks. this place is in the all this of the nra. it is a very confusing thing. is it bump stocks? mental health? univers universal background checks? in my opinion, any person with a heart and a soul should do something to prevent what happened today and what we will continue to live with until we decide to do something about it. >> thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> tom fuentes, we've covered these stories together. walk us through what you suspect happened. they have the suspect. i assume there are no acco

i remember in the case of newtown that the mother of adam lanza, the killer in that situation said she's really hard to do that. it's either expensive or they can't -- they haven't done something worthy of getting them into a facility. parents begging for, with mentally unstable children, begging for that kind of access. is the federal government, is the white house going to do something to help parents who have children who are disturbed like this? >> we have been in contact already with several groups across the country about addressing the issue here, and this is mental illness and how we actually help people out there. the president made the speech from the white house last week to try and explain to people you're not alone. we are going to help you. we are going to work with attorneys general at the local level and governors to get things accomplished so that can you have support at the federal level on these types of issues. but, it is quite frankly grotesque. as soon as the tragedy strikes, democrats run to the cameras and their first reaction is to say it's all about gun contro
