into places like sandy hook elementary school or a movie theater in colorado or a classroom in blacksburg, we know that people with serious mental illness this country can go buy a very powerful weapon and do great damage with it. now, that does not mean that there is an inherent connection between mental illness and violence. in fact, we know the opposite to be true. if you're mentally ill, you're probably more likely to be the victim of violence than you are to be the perpetrator of it. but we do know that in this country, given the fact that weapons are so easy to come by, people with mental illness, serious mental illness who have an intersection with visions of violence often do great harm. so we made a decision, a collective decision as republicans and democrats that if you have a serious mental illness, you probably shouldn't be able to go and buy an assault weapon. that's what the law says. section 101 of the nics improvement act is entitled "enhancement of requirement that federal departments and agencies provide relevant information to the national instant criminal background ch

. >> more than 30 people were shot to death today at virginia tech university in blacksburg, virginia was the deadliest mass shooting in american history... >> i was a senior that year when it happened. it was hard because i really loved virginia tech. i think it's a really special campus and community. it was shocking, traumatic. it felt like somebody had attacked my family. had someone in one of those classrooms been armed, i think it would have made a difference, certainly. i think that people do deserve to have a fighting chance, and the concealed carry gives them another option for self-defense in that type of situation. >> i've debated with nick like, a couple months ago. and i get it. and i can't put myself in his situation, but causing everybody else to live in fear like you is counterproductive. people often forget that my university was the site for the first recorded mass shooting in u.s. history. that's usually brushed under the rug. >> my name is ramiro martinez. back in 1966, i was with the austin police department. together, with other officers, we took down the sniper.
