owning guns carrying guns storing guns i don't think they take it seriously enough why the resistance to regulation. because it leads to more regulation. that's too slippery of a slope we can't have laws to protect people from their own stupidity. one hundred eighty degrees backus guys he's a word sexy when they talk about guns i'm not going to but they're all mantic. they're emotional. you know when. you don't know you. don't know. you don't know you in. a well regulated militia being necessary for the security of a free state comma the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. the second amendment in every state constitution guarantees my right to keep and bear arms why for my personal safety and to preserve liberty that's why it's called america. i run the solution i've heard him say you need to call i think there's somebody shooting in here. mass shootings in america have become almost commonplace but the sandy hook school massacre where six and seven year olds were targeted by gunman reached a new level of horror and cops the rules of the american gun deba

guns in bars you know guns in your car or so from a police chief's perspective i would definitely say that probably prefer if we do not have guns in bars. i got a for a tin shack gun from santa cause last year. right now our best selling rifle is the better wesson it's just you know finding an issue that people just you know go to the range and go shoot them. have fun. is there also are there's a lot of. b.s. thanking me around here or full. oh really seem fair on the animal no. it doesn't. poor b.m. you know. this as well right here the glock semiautomatic pistol is more of the biggest biggest movie guns ever. hear that they know what they're doing because i saw in the movie. they're dangerous we have to go out there and stop them and actually paid them on how to handle a firearm immediately ok one of our most popular self-defense rounds here it is one hundred twenty four grain. jacket whole point is it rapidly hitting organic material such as your for a couple of metals or else we also have. an a or if you have tank with. huge seller there really is strongly accurate weapon for a ve

that thishe gun -15 gun that, a ar_1 is fast and deadly. it is a semi automatic rifle rapid fire and uses high-capacity magazines. haveof five mass shootings model type rifles. the firearms industry trade owners like-- gun them because they can be easily customized. some gun control groups want to restrict these rifles, calling them weapons of war. the rifles have been used in 17 active shooter attacks since 2000. thursday afternoon, federal agents at the bureau of alcohol, askedo, and firearms, about the gun shop sale. the shop was fully compliant, they said. nothing about this transaction that raised in esa's the minds of owners or the employees. -- raised any doubts in the minds of owners or the employees. he did pass the background check at the gun shop and was able to walk out with the rifle. oklahoma, you are a parent? what do you think? caller: i think they are trying to confuse us. these elections are for the power of the pen because if they control the power of the pen, they can control the description of gun violence. it would not

you see gun free zones, shooters know if you go to a gun free zone you're the only one with the gun. to law enforcement agents that were with me that could counter the shooter. that's what took him down, it was other people with guns that took down the shooter. every day in america there are people who use guns to stop crimes, to defend their own family. if that's what our founding fathers wrote about they believe in an innate right for people to have guns for self-defense. pray for the families, cared about these families don't try to promote your agenda in the middle of a tragedy. >> laura: how are you doing in the aftermath? now that you have gotten through all of these surgeries, you still have to use crutches to walk. you have such an unbelievable attitude, there's so many dark days. it was inspiring to so many of us. we were talking about it earlie earlier. do you have any ptsd from what happened to you? >> i don't. i've talked through this with my security detail, my colleagues who are out there. if there weren't other people with guns to stop the shooter, there would've been

few and do not tell who has a gun, who does not have a gun.aryland proudly display "gun free zone." i make it a point, never, ever to go into a business that declares themselves gun free zone. i was growing up, i remember mentally ill people were put in mental institutions, but the liberals made such a big stink in the early 1970's that all these people were let go because the democrats need them to vote for them. host: what about concerns expressed by some people that having guns in schools might increase the chances of an the gun falling into the wrong hands inside the school? are you concerned? caller: no, i am not here it i had a couple of military friends -- i am not. i had a couple of military friends with concealed weapons on them, and i felt safe knowing that if something did happen, they would get their guns out and shoot the bad guy dead. host: calling from savannah, georgia, you oppose the president's idea. why? caller: good morning. when theit because second amendment was written, i do not think no one is living now in america that

they might have some negative impact on gun sales but as the gun sales lobby is now in charge bills for the senate in the house? deferring to the nra is the reason we have reached this moment in history. remember, the senate has held one gunboat since president trump came to office. and it was the vote to prevent mental health records from the social security administration going into the fbi's gun background check system. that is the only vote since the trump administration took office. the only thing we have done, rollback a law on the books on mental health and background checks. that was a good way to gun lobby which claims to support enforcing the laws on the books that actually tries to rollback those laws means helping lift their sales. let's show the students at stoneman douglas and across the country we hear them. i hope we show that reducing gun violence is a priority. a call on my republican colleagues to join the democrats in a bipartisan effort issued, effort, to treat the issue of gun safety with the same sense of urgency the american people believe is necessary. if republ

gun. the company describes it as the world's most popular pistol. at $5 thunder guns could cost $359 million in total. if we go by just the basic gun safety training and provide firearms the president's idea would cost nearly half a billion dollars but if we want to provide the more expensive training in the guns well that would bump up the tab to more than $1 billion. it's a big number. joining me now is david hemingway. he's dedicated decades asking the question of firearms and public health. david, you have said something really striking about the idea of arming some teachers. you call the idea crazy and then you said what should we do about reducing airline hijacking. do we give passengers guns as they walk on. we saw ivanka trump say it might not be a bad idea. why do you think it's so crazy? >> well, the evidence is overwhelming in the united states and throughout the world is that the more civilians with guns, the more danger and more killings there are. in order to -- if we wanted

short of that, to our knowledge, he'd owned these guns, purchased these guns legally. what was law enforcement to do? again, it was not illegal to have mental health issues. in fact, we operate within a system where there are real deficiencies in terms of the availability of treatment, the availability of care. we've seen this time and time again. >> if people have mental health issues should people be allowed to get their hands on a gun? what can we do in the interim to figure it out before it is adjudicated, as has been mentioned so many times on the air today, how do you keep them from doing it? there's a new picture of the shooter's instagram page that shows him wearing a maga hat. what does that tell us, what have you learned about his political views, his leanings tonight? >> the make america great again picture, which is interesting at least. looking at his online profile he posted a lot of the things i would characterize as alt-right. the make america great hat, he posts comments about gun control, he wrote that "f" all of you, stop trying to take away you're r

if you're a gun owner, be responsible. there's no excuse. yeah, it's a gun lock. lock your guns up. and if you're not, and you -- even if you're just a parent, ask where your children go, if they have unsecured weapons in the home. >> i just want to make sure that no other parent ever has to feel this. >> reporter: they think tonight's test is so important and they applaud the parents willing to test their kids so that so many others will learn what to do if they ever find a gun. the next teen to be tested is 15-year-old jordan. he knows more about the effects of gun violence than most kids his age. >> are you ready? let's go. >> reporter: his mom, who's with me in our watchmobile, explains that before moving to florida, they lived in a rough neighborhood in chicago where there were gangs. >> a bullet actually went through our -- our mailbox, which is where my boys would've been playing. >> reporter: his mom says because of his life experience, she's betting her son won't touch the gun. >> how do you think jordan is going to act and react? >> you know, i don't want to touch it. mayb

stolen guns kill more people than guns that are bought legally. one want to prevent that is through a background check at the point of sale of every gun, ffl dealers, they do it. but i can buy a gun off of the street from an individual that i've never met before and nobody does a background check. here's what you do. you require a purchaser's permit at the point of sale of every gun in this country. at the point of sale, you have to have a buyer's permit. the way you get your buyer's permit, if i want to buy a gun from senator rubio, i go to an ffl dealer, and i have my a background check run, have my buyer's permit and he sells me his gun after i show him to the permit. >> the nra would love it. >> if i don't have my permit, it's against the law for him to sell it to me and it's against the law for me to buy it. now, everybody is thinking, well, nobody is going to do that. who will know? then what happens, law enforcement has the opportunity to go into this streets and buy and sell guns from people that are in there buying and selling guns right

gun.s go right to cnn's martin savidge. he is live for us outside stone man douglas high school. martin, good evening to you. the new details about the school resource deputy not going into the building as the shooting was unfolding inside. i mean, this is a big deal that can't be understated. what can you tell us about this? >> yeah, it's a horrifying change to the narrative, don. just imagine what these families have been going through as far as dealing with the loss. they'd already been told by the fbi that there had been a solid tip warning about a possible attack on the high school that had been mishandled. and now to hear that the sro, that's the resource officer, this is the school resource officer that is armed. he is in a sheriff's deputy's uniform. he has a sidearm, as you point out. his only job is to protect this campus. he was there at the time of the shooting. but he did not go in. that was a point that was stressed by sheriff scott israel of broward county as he broke the ne

>> homes. >> homes and guns. >> and guns. is so much wrong with what the president just said there. there is so much that kind of misunderstands reality or misrepresents it. first of all, it's not easy to involuntarily commit someone. he makes it sound like it would be the easiest thing in the world to take someone who showed signs of danger and just stow them in a mental institution. that's not something we do in this country for very good reasons. also, he's conflating mental illness and the anger and other impulses that have motivated these school shooters. some of them probably fit the definition of mental illness, others don't. he's stigmatizing mental illness with what motivates some of these shoorters, and that's irresponsible. >> i want to read something, frank. this is from the "new york times." it's a study in the difference between us and other countries. americans make up 4.4% of the global population but own 42% of the world's guns. if mental health made the difference, then data would show that americans have mo

elling guns. some of them are licensed dealers. and if you buy a gun from them, you have to get a background check. some of them are just individual citizens selling guns. and in some states those people don't have to require a ackground check with a purchase. and they'll be -- there will be situations where the licensed dealer has a gun for sale at one price and the individual has the same gun at a higher price. so, this is not a secret. people know that this happens that goes on. you can also in some areas, buy a gun on the internet. you can go -- and this happened. a couple of years ago, my guest at the state of the union was a man who lost his sister to gun violence. and there was a restraining order against her hulls. he went to a gun store -- her husband. he went to a gun store and tried to buy a certain type of pistol. and because there was a restraining order, it came up on the computer that he was prohibited from buying that pistol. he walked out the door, got on a computer, went to one o

guns heap could get easily despite tough california gun ownership laws. >> for me a guy who had guns, status, i was the kid. >> this man, admits he is responsible for supplying some of those illegal guns to people like emile. >> probably get like $800 to $1,000 a gun. >> now in federal witness protect, put there after the feds caught up with him. before he was caught he spent about two years smuggling guns from the midwest to the bay area. >> i was out in a different state. and i just seen how easy it was for people from that state to just get a gun. than it was in california. >> how much would you pay for them in the midwest? >> $300. >> $300. you would make as much as $1,000 off $300 gun. >> yeah, depending what kind of gun it was. >> he asked us to call him roger. he fears former clients who bought hundreds of guns from him over the years might now kill him for turning states evidence and talking to us. >> started off, drugs first. >> what kind? >> marijuana. >> roger soon found an easier more lucrative way to make money. >> did you work your way up? >> no, i just i just took a dif

control and gun laws in the u.s. what do you think needs to be included in the debate in the discussion. well i think in some ways we're headed there this is an example. where in a change in the law allowing these gun violence restraining orders would have stopped several of the last shooters from obtaining the guns that they actually use now what we never can say is might they have gotten a gun from some other source an illegal source but we can always focus on one issue would have time and do the best we can heretofore we've had this circus like approach that whenever an instance like this happens everything's on the table and we start getting talking about assault weapons magazine capacity eliminating the second amendment once that debate starts and we lose any focus nothing's going to happen so far this debate has kept some focus i think this is a partial answer the gun violence restraining orders and i endorse i'm scott i want to be a last word here very quickly does the fact that these kinds of shootings contin

the answer to guns is not more guns. and on top of that, you don't know this teacher could be crazy and mentally unstable and giving them a gun to protect a room full of students. you don't know if they will harm a student or another faculty members. >> and you were in tallahassee yesterday with classmates and did get a chance to talk to governor rick scott. a number of students were in his waiting room. he was at a funeral. he did agree to meet with students at 5:00. how did you feel about the response you got from the governor? >> at first he seemed very receptive and made it very clear he was listening to us. he shared -- he shared with us his plans on how to make schools safer but there were a couple of tom -- topics that he deflected what we were saying and started talking about something else like mental health. there were a couple of things that we wanted to ask him but never got a straight answer from. >> and what happens to this movement? we are just a week out of the tragedy, there is still a lot of emotion and

guns. he's a hunter. he's a believer in the second amendment. well, he'll speak to his own credentials. i just want at that to say how proud we are of him for taking the lead on this issue. and he has in recognizing that we have to have the facts and calls for egislation a select committee on gun violence. his bipartisan legislation to pass the thompson-king bill, to strengthen background checks. it's bipartisan. and of course how can you get the information if we do not allow the research to prevent gun violence? children are dying in our schools, in our communities, on our streets. all this congress has to say is , let's have a moment of silence. with that, i sadly yield, with great gratitude, to mr. thompson and thank him for his leadership on this very important issue. mr. thompson: leader pelosi, thank you very much. it's sad to be here once again after yet another tragedy involving guns. the leader pointed to three priority issues. i want to just point out that ever since sandy hook,

that had the gun inside.emoved the gun and at 2:21, two minutes after arriving he began shooting in classrooms. there is a couple of interesting things that took place during that time line. the sheriff actually says he shot up two different classroom went to a third, and then came back and shot some more in the first two classrooms. he drops the gun eventually runs out blends with students. goes to a wal-mart, buys a drink and a sand wi67 only apprehended an hour later, don. >> drew, thank you very much for your reporting. i want to bring in cnn senior media reporter darcy and greg mccareerry a criminalologist and fbi behavioral scientist. thank you for coming on. wes i'll start with you at a brief hearing the shooter's attorney described him as a deeply disturbed emotionally broken young man who struggled with significant mental disease and trauma his whole life. what do you know about the type of childhood and life this young man had? >> of course. well our reporting and cnn reporting as well seems to pain

was that the presence of the gun was more likely to cause a murder or death by gun then the absence of a good in a home. financial life guy. i prize on with features. of the five. is the last of my it's in the future. if they are imposing their sanctions we just start developing our domestic capabilities and topping our internal resources because you remember how during the previous u.s. administration they said that the russian economy will be in shambles but pointing to falling oil prices and sanctions and all that stuff. are we in shambles now quite the opposite. this is hotter than kentucky. boys people families where you. need. a co money city with almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal was said. live to seize people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought. in a million years i would say that in the end it's happened it's happened. the protests held against the n.r.a. convention took place ten days after c

gun people focus on gun rights. and remember, you can't shake them from that. >> who are the gun people are the anti-gun people, we're talking urban versus rural. >> rural people have guns. >> doesn't mean either is worse than the other. they're two different worlds. we're one country still. we've got to talk about how do we pull people together on what they agree on. >> slippery slope. they don't -- you know they don't want background checks. next thing they'll round up all the guns. >> we can't let that stop us, those of house do you want background checks because we get demorelized. there's no progress at all. what happens if democrats did get the majority of congress and the white house? would they be ready to push for some sensible new gun laws? would they be ready? i don't know. they've got the ideas. we've been so busy talking about those issues haven't got a chance. >> frank, if somebody walked into a gun store and seemed sweaty or looked nutty, would they be denied a gun? does it work in practice? >> look,

safety and gun training.mber of the nra. >> why not, if you like it so much? >> because i believe in what their -- i believe in the second amendment, but they have absolutely, positively promoted the intersection that david's talking about, of gun purchases and mental health -- >> you've been on the house floor for those votes, jack. absolutely not. why has congress not voted on this issue is because the nra has coordinated with republican leadership in congress to not allow a gun vote. you know that. >> they just had one in december. what are you talking about? it was, richard hudson just passed a bill in december 2017. >> yeah, national right to carry reciprocity, to expand gun rights! they have not -- >> actually, it fixes -- >> hold on. hold on. you're speaking over each other. >> it fits background checks and it is the bipartisan bill that pat murphy, who is a very, very pro-gun control senator and john cornyn, who is a second amendment senator, are taking up in the senate. >> jack. hey, jack, just one s

this is a complex thing and it's not guns or people. it's guns an people. if we're not focusing on both elements for school safety and for safety in general, then we're missing a key part of the equation. that's why the solutions won't work. we needed to focus on both and drive forward in that way. >> senator blumenthal, it's great having you on. you come from a state where people are only about guns. some states are. most states are not. most states are against any mention of gun control or school safety no matter how you phrase it. how are you going to get anything done with a president whose ear seems to be tuned to the nra and a majority of senators with ears and pocketbooks attuned to the nra who don't want anything done? >> this president has said to the nra, we will never let you down. in fact, his administration has cut funding for school security, cut funding for mental health treatment. he seems to be backing the idea of arming teachers. and eliminating gun-free zones. that idea has been rejected soundly and consistently by the entire educational

if it's okay to have these guns, you know, you don't want gun control, gun control doesn't matter to america anymore, we have controls to protect americans. so if we don't want gun control, then let's not even control the amount of opioids out there. america has turned sick. and it's all about the almighty dollar. this is a different world we are in. we have a president who became president before he even announced he could call someone on fifth avenue and it wouldn't matter. so here we are. you have a good day. >> attorney general of florida pam bondy, this is from fox news reporting this morning that it will be her office that will pay for the funerals of those murdered students. let's go to ann in georgia. hello. >> good morning. how are you? >> i'm well, thank you. go ahead. >> first, thank you for taking our calls. i have two points i'd like to make. the first one is most of -- many of our congressman receive large amounts of dollars from the nra. basically bought and paid for. and they do support gun ownership. and it is really i think a shame that we have so much money in poli

they put away their guns. they guns were in a different section. totally gun free. their guns were 250 yards away from them. where they had a store. and they went in for lunch. and a whacko came in and shot the five of them. he wouldn't have lasted -- three of these people were world class marksmen. he wouldn't have lasted for a second. but they stood there. there was nothing they could do. all five were killed. you know the instance i'm talking about. that was at a gun free zone at a military base. well, a school is, frankly, no different. i want my schools protected just like my banks are protected. just like everything else. and i get a kick -- i was watching a politician, weak ineffective politician last night. i'd tell you who but i don't want to embarrass anybody. he was talking about no guns, no this, no that. i said, when are they going to give up their guns? but he wants everybody else to have no guns, all right. and you have plenty of them. we have to harden our sites. these people, as adept as they may have to go to training i would say every six months o

they live for a gun free zones. -- four gun free zones. frankly, you have teachers that are marines, for 20 years and retired to become a teacher. they are army, navy, air force, coast guard, people that have won shooting contests for whatever, this is what they do. they know and understand guns. i have, frankly, been reading a lot about it. i think when you allow a person that has been in the marine for 20 years who has nothing but knowledge about handling guns safely and well, one of the fake news networks -- i want certain highly adept people that that has been in the marine for understand weaponry, guns. if they really have that aptitude, because not everybody has an aptitude for a gun. if they have an aptitude, a concealed permit for teachers and letting people know there are people in the building with guns, in my opinion, you won't have these shootings. the people are cowards. they're not going to walk into a school if 20% of the teachers have guns. maybe 40%? what i would recommend doing, the people that do carry, we give them a bo

in sandy hit hook did not support guns or allow guns on campus the virginia tech did not allow guns on campus. the question remains what's the amount of training at which a teacher can carry guns remember we're not saying we're going to force teachers to carry guns but we're saying that if you get the right amount of training then maybe it will be allowed if you're in the classroom to protect your children so what's the right amount of training or if we put teachers through are we ok with teachers going through military training at some point there has to be a level that we're comfortable with a few individuals carrying. to see what does happen david really appreciate your insight and your point of view thanks very much for joining us from ohio on al-jazeera thank you. despite growing condemnation syrian government bombing continues on the rebel held district of eastern damascus more than three hundred people have been killed since sunday that of the united nations has called the situation eastern go to hell on earth all diplomatic at the james bays will have warned that at first they

you actually get even more guns than -- more gun shootouts and the need for more guns. i thought the ralph peters now shrinking himself, ralph is a tough guy. and he writes a tough column today. and he talks about ban these weapons of murder and again, another tough guy, tough conservative, former military man, gun owner, fired his first gun when he was 7 years old and because he was such a delicate flower at 7 it was a sawed off shotgun. >> there you go. >> he spent his time in the military firing weapon after weapon, automatic weapon after automatic weapon and here's the line. said these are military weapons. their purpose is to kill human beings. they are not used for hunting unless you want to destroy the animal's meat. they're lousy for target shooting, but they are excellent tools for mass murder. now, anybody that suggests that you need these for hunting deer, hunting animals, the graphic description we saw yesterday of what these bullets did -- what this gun did to these children's bodies and to their organs, that they smashed them like a sledge hammer, that's w

president, no one gun safety measure is perfect and no gun safety measure will stop every act of gun violence, but that should not stop us from taking action. after all, we take public health measures all the time that don't prevent all disease, but vastly reduce the incidents of it. in a country with a government of, by, and for the people, it is simply an outrage to suggest that there is nothing that people who govern themselves can do to ensure that their gun safety laws evolve as firearm technology progresses. i also refuse to accept the notion that we cannot pass any law to address gun safety because it is too hard or the challenges are too insurmountable. that has not stopped our nation before, and it shouldn't now. students in parkland and young people across the country are speaking out and making clear that they don't want to live this way. they don't want the horror that they experienced to be inflicted on more of their peers. these young voices are speaking up and sparking a conversation that has been absent or has been pushed to the wayside for far too long. it's up to us

shop and purchase a gun. unless we passes legislation this loophole will continue to allow individuals identified as terrorist to were terror suspects to buy firearms. it is time for those in congress who oppose gun reform to step up and say what they're doing to protect the public. time to listen to the student leaders across the country who are rejecting the unacceptable status quo of our nation's gun violence epidemic. those of us in the senate who know firearms well have a special duty to lead these efforts and get the details right and to reshape our nation's gun laws. an action will not cut it. we all need to listen to the students and parents and teachers and to our own children who are calling on us to be part of the solution. you can count on me despite the odds to keep our children stay and reduce gun violence and keep our communities safe. that's in our communities and constituents deserve. >> senator ed markey spoke to introduce a resolution to reestablish net neutrality. tech crunch writes that t

you are a gun owner. caller: i own one gun. host: and why?aller: just for protection in case someone hums into my house. you said 44% of the 80,000 people who illegally try to obtain handguns, but the actual -- and that is the problem. we have a situation in st. louis where one of these thugs was shooting at our police officers and the prosecutor brought the case to the judge, recommended eight to 10 years, and the judge you had a bad childhood. i don't agree with what the president is recommending. i think anybody caught with an illegal gun should have a mandatory three-year prison sentence. the people doing most of the shootings are repeat offenders. if you get those up the street, it is going to be a much safer place. i think we should agree that ar-15 should be outlawed. there is nobody that hunts with those. they are just designed to kill people. there is really no reason why we need this. ,ost: ready, you are correct the washington from "the washington times" says roughly 80,000 people committed a felony for trying to buy a gun, just 44

a strong interest in gun control or no gun control.hey understand that this is an issue that whips up the conservative base, that republican voters are likely to vote on gun issues. historically we have seen the koch brothers use their undisclosed money organizations to fund the nra. that's because the nra will go out and engage in election efforts to activate republican base voters to get them to the polls. you see television advertisements from the nra. that money does come from nra members and gun companies, but it also can come from groups like the koch brothers that are hoping to use them as an identity group to activate their base voters. amy: can you talk a little about outdoor brands? it used to be known as smith & wesson, right? lee: this is a company that sells a number of different rifles, formally known as smith & wesson. they manufactured the ar-15 used in the parkland massacre. this is a company that has donated millions of dollars to the nra. they have engaged in marketing practices with the nra, saying that if you buy a

for gun owners when they didn't stand up when full and still was shot illegal gun owner he says he had a license he had a concealed carry had every right to have that weapon and the police shot him for it you know nerd it up and there's a video so you know it's a little like it's a little hypocritical yeah looks you know when you think when you talk about gun control numbers i mean you go. total lobbying for money for gun rights and just what he's seventeen was ten million dollars pretty small number compared with seventy nine when he really had some of these the lobbyist for gun rights of cigarettes point they are for the rights of gun manufacturers they should not be just it's not a gun owners association it's a gun manufacturers to say well that's what they're lobbying for that's where the big money they are right. now is rifle association about five million national shooting sports foundation three point three national association for guns right about eight hundred thousand which is where is. you know it's interesting also when you look at the amount of weapons in the united states

i have very little experience with gun and i was never the victim of gun violence.the most dangerous victim was my education. the series of lessons about the human body and how to make it a weapon. child abuse, physical abuse and verbal abuse. all the way someone can use a body to impose their will on someone. that was my experience. i grew up believing that hurting people is power and respect. when i was in the street culture i learned that street society lives with a different set of rules. the reduce me to the power of guns. that line of education may power worth more than my own sanity. god will lead to my greatest pain, my child to protector, teenage role model and it eventually make grown-up responsibility, my brother was murdered. a gun made a man, silent one, brooklyn, lost one, forever empty one. that is the man who gun made. [applause] >> i've been reading from this over the last few days. i think dean brianna and alexandra for putting this together. must really want to thank the responders who are making me face mild complacency. i feel like this book is

they might have someey negative impact on gun sales but as the gun sales lobby is in charge of bills for the senate and the house deferring to the nra is the reason why we have reached this moment in history. remember senators have have have held one gunboats since president trump came into office and voted to put mental health records and the social security administration from going into the f. the ike gun background check system. it's the only thing we have done done. we rollback a law on the books for mental health background checks. the gun lobby claims to support enforcing the laws on the books. they try to roll back those laws that means lifting their sales. let's show the students has stoneman douglas and across the country through them and hope reducing gun violence is a priority. i call on my republican colleagues to join the democrats in a d bipartisan effort to tret the issue of gun safety with the same sense of urgency that the american people believe is necessary. if republicans take a fraction of the effort to gun safety that they have other issues we can get this done

many of those people have access to guns and guns of mass distraction. mr. president, i think that in some respects the slaughter at the high school in florida is kind of the straw that broke tho the american people were stunned to see some very six person in las vegas break a window and start mowing down people they wounded 500 people within just a few minutes. that comes on top of sandy hook, it comes on top of so many gun slaughters. what has finally happened, maybe because of the extraordinary efforts of these young people from parkland, the american people are saying enough is enough. we have a difficult problem and we might not be of the solid completely overnight but we have a moral obligation to do everything that we can to make certain no more children, no more people in this country are mode it down by some sick person with a weapon. that is not just me talking of the young people with a high school in florida, it is what the american people want. let me refer to you a couple of polls that were conducted recently. a poll on february 20, just a few

i am a gun owner. [applause] long guns, handguns, all kinds of guns.laughter] and how dare you compare a law-abiding citizen who goes through the process to legally buy a gun, exercising our second amendment rights, to the evil mass murderer in parkland, florida. a not job who signs a nut job who signs of disaster were missed about everybody, in addition to our elite fbi. i once trashed the mother of the boston bombers. i called her the jihadi mom because she trashed america. i got huge blowback and criticism that i was denigrating all muslims by trashing her. i was trashing her. [applause] let's turn this one around. you want to blame me for trashing all muslims, because i trashed one person? how about you not blame all gunowners for the actions of one person? [applause] i know crime. i was in the trenches where the fight between good and evil unfolds every day. i have seen the worst of the worst. i did it for 30 years. to think that disarming legal gunowners will put an end to gun violence is a joke. if the obama administration and the leftists and t

carrying guns storing guns i don't think they take it seriously and. why the resistance to regulation. because it leads to more regulation. that's too slippery of a slope we can't have laws to protect people from their own stupidity. one hundred eighty degrees baucus guys he's a word sexy when they talk about guns i'm not going to but they're all mantic. they're emotional. no no no. no no no. no no no no you. know when. you don't know. you don't know you in. a well regulated militia being necessary for the security of a free state comma the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. the second amendment in every state constitution guarantees my right to keep and bear arms why for my personal safety and to preserve liberty that's why it's called america. not much solution i've heard him say. i think there's somebody shooting in here. mass shootings in america have become almost commonplace but the sandy hook school massacre six and seven year olds were targeted by gunman reached a new level of horror and cuts to the rule of the am

conclusion was that the presence of the gun was more likely to cause a murder or death by gun then the absence of a good in a home. when you don't. see the. what did they could it. what did you. make. love to kill said. no. that's a. few speak french. yes. that's. good. that's. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to be rich. it's a joy to be cross that's what the before freedom or can people get. interested always in the water is a. question. the wall this getting away from us dollar as wall reserve currency a one road one bell policy linking up russia and china is out of the dollar every last trade oil away from the dollar and countries are desperate to get out of the u.s. dollar saw the dollar is going to lose value no matter what anybody says here's the treasury secretary we are trying to make it look like oh it's our policy for a lower dollar borrowing matter what he says the dollar is going lower as i've been saying for a number of years because the u.s. dollar is a curr

stolen guns kill more people than guns are bought legally. one way to prevent that is through a groug at the point. sale of every gun. ffl dealers, they do it. but i can buy a gun off the street from an individual that i've never met before and nobody cause the background check. here's what you do. you require a purchaser's permit at the point of sale of every gun in this country. at the point of sale, you have to have a buyer's permit. the way you get your buyer's permit is, if i want to buy a gun from senator rubio, i go to an ffl dealer. i get my buyers permit. i take to it him and he sells me his gun after i get the permit. if i don't have my permit, it is against the law for him to sell it to me. and it is against the law for me to buy it. now, everybody is thinking, well, heck, nobody will do that and who long? law enforcement has the opportunity to go into the streets and buy and sell guns from people had are in there, buying, selling guns right now. and we can actually make arrests and get those guys off the street who are selling gun

gun rights? granted by god?ook, there are a lot of people who believe that, but there are also a lot of people who believe it is also your right to not be mowed down by somebody. >> there was a mother who said, what about my son's right to life, liberty and the pursuit to happiness? are those two things not on equal plane? i think maybe that's the central debate we're having here. which right is more important? i think the democrats and some folks in parkland are saying, we deserve to live, we deserve to live in safe communities, and the nra is saying, well, you can't take away our guns. >> and the key question to your point is whether you can have both rights simultaneously, and there should be a way for grown-ups to get in a room and figure it out. >> you saw that play out in the white house yesterday. we had one father saying, this is terrible but it's not about guns right now. and you had the student saying, i can't believe somebody can buy this kind of weapon. >>> senator marco rubio tried to walk the tight
