let's draw a distinction between mass murders and mass bullet shooters. yes, the one that comes to mind, one in montgomery, pennsylvania several years ago, you have the very famous one, the song i don't like mondays. i found it interesting, i talk about her a little bit in the book because she's emblematic in a lot of ways, this was a young women who had been victimized herself that is not unusual so are millions of others who don't turn around and shoot up schoolyards on a monday morning. what is fascinating to me should and a recent parole hearing a couple years back, he seemed to take a lot of responsibility for what happened that day but she kept going back when she talked about the shooting itself, over and over again she said my gun did this, my bullet did that. a disconnect, a disconnect. ms. harkins, they do indeed happen, they are rare more than those committed by men, i think that also has a lot to do with the fact that there is a certain dictation of violence in the culture that men are raised with but i also think that there is a pathology of

we understand flights have not been impacted by this mass shooting here. again, flights have not been impacted but we understand there's still a very large scene there as investigators get to work in these wee hours of the morning, because of the time it happened just after 11:00 p.m. information is coming a little slowly out of there, that's understandable because of the time it happened, the investigators reaching the scene and getting assistance from potential federal agencies as well as they investigate the shooter. again, we don't know much information about the alleged shooter but we know this is a workplace shooting that happened leaving eight lives lost and multiple injuries. again, multiple people shot in this. getting themselves to the hospital. paramedics rushing them to the hospital as well. fedex facility there on lockdown. we also understand the main fedex facility according to our abc affiliate has increased security as a precaution at that other facility as well. >> a lot of questions remain, what we do know the priority for authorities whe

what should be done to stop these mass shootings? caller: it would stop the mass shootings.ou give a man a job. host: how are you going to give people jobs? are you saying the government should provide jobs? tell us what to do. caller: i'm telling you what to do. break these big companies down, put these local jobs back where we had them. you so you all these factories that closed down in america, that means nobody has a job. look at what's going on in america. the family is gone. because nobody has any money. host: let's go to joe who is calling from san antonio, texas. joe, good morning. caller: the last couple of callers are pretty entertaining. how do you fix the problem, you can't fix stupid. it takes personal responsibility. the last two callers danced all around it, but we have lost our personal responsibility. host: explain what you mean by that. what are you calling personal responsibility. caller: people think they can commit crimes on the street and not be held responsible. people think that they can have unrestricted sex with no consequences and abort the babies.

so many people tune into the mass. given to people who tuned in this morning? >> yes, adherence to the easter message is obviously one of hope of because it tells us how christ was powerful enough to conquer death itself. the word virus comes from the latin word which means strength. so if something goes viral it's strong. what the holy father is trying to do is encourage virtue over the virus, faith over fear, and his invitation to go to galille as he mentioned in the homily is a reminder to us to do what we can to seek out christ and even though people aren't able to perhaps gather in large congregation as in the past, he's letting us know that christ even though he's very physically resurrected, there's also a spiritual renewal and that's the invitation. make sure faith overcomes fear. >> and then ray, i want to go back to you, piggy backing off of that. the future of the church, what do you think that looks like now that we've gone more than a year with covid restrictions. now we're in the second -- we're seeing th

we showed you a mass, a mass shooting a day since the atlanta spa massacres a month ago.his is not the time to talk about guns, this is the time to talk about the victims. and yet here we are again, daniella. >> reporter: christine, here we are again. democratic senators remain optimistic that they can try to pass some sort of legislation to fix these kinds of situations, any sort of gun safety measures, but there is still a long way to go on this issue. on one hand you have democratic senator chris murphy of connecticut who is leading a bill right now through the senate to try to expand background checks. he wants universal background checks on -- he wants -- in legislation he wants congress to pass legislation on universal background checks. and he is aware and acknowledged that anything they pass through the senate will have to have a narrow scope to be able to get any republicans to sign on, but he wants to see this issue passed. of course, he represents the state where the sandy hook shooting took place in connecticut. on the other hand you have two senators, senator

mass shootings. they seem to be happening more often.ight people died in the most recent incident which took place thursday night at a fedex ground facility in analysis, indiana. the horror of that news is compounded by the number of familiar incidents in recent weeks. . in fact, this is the 45th mass shooting in the area since the atlanta killings on march 16th. a mass shooting is defined as one four people are hurt or killed by gunfire, not including the gunman. officials say they won't reveal the identities of the people winded in that shooting on friday but they have released the names of those who lost their lives. they are the following. investigators in indianapolis are combing through what they called a chaotic crime scene. they also identified the gunman and revealed how he ended on law enforcement's radar last year. jason carroll has that, plus details on how the horrific incident unfolded. >> i saw a man with a machine gun of some sort, an automatic rifle and he was firing in the open. >> eight dead and several others injured

mass shootings have become so common in america that anniversaries of mass shooting are overlapping. today marks -- i'm sorry, 14 years since a gunman killed 32 innocent people at virginia tech in one of the deadliest mass shootings in american history. we're going to start our coverage in indianapolis today where moments ago we got some breaking news about the fedex shooting suspect. let's go to cnn's miguel marquez. miguel, it appears the suspect used to work at this very fedex facility. >> reporter: yeah. the fedex spokesperson says that the peterm operator used to wor at this very place as investigators try to figure out why this happened. in less than a couple of minutes -- >> he just appeared to randomly start shooting. >> reporter: eight more lives lost in america's latest mass shooting. >> he was firing in the open, and i immediately ducked down and got scared, and my friend's mother, he came -- she came in and told us to get inside the car. >> we heard three more shots, and then my buddy levi saw someone running out of the building and then more shots went off. >> reporter:

it's not only these mass shootings that are occurring.y single day, every single day there's a mass shooting in the united states if you count all those who are killed out on the streets of our cities and our rural areas. it's a national embarrassment and must come to an end. >> reporter: wolf, the president was asked is he prioritizing gun legislation given the focus from his administration particularly on the pandemic, but also its economic package that he's working through right now on the infrastructure and jobs side of things. the president made clear he can focus on more than one thing. one thing to keep in mind is there are bipartisan talks, quiet bipartisan talks ongoing on capitol hill. no clear pathway to the 60 votes they need to move something forward, but some white house officials i've spoken to say there's some sense here that they want to give those talks space, see what those senators can come up with in those negotiations. they don't necessarily want to go full bore at the moment. the reality is the package controlling t

but, robyn, it's not just the mass shootings. it's the 100-plus people that are killed across the united states, literally, every day by a firearm. and the 200 plus who are injured, every single day, most of whom never make the news. those are equally exhausting, to me, ass an er doctor and to communities across the country. >> so, when you look at the comments coming from president biden, this week. he -- he was calling for gun violence to be a public-health emergency. how important a step is that language, and itself, that this needs to be treated like an epidemic that needs public-health tools? >> it is a critical step, because what happens when we call gun violence what it is, which is a public-health epidemic. then, we can apply public-health tools. the same tools that we have used to start to bring the covid pandemic under control. the same tools that we have used to decrease car-crash deaths by more than 70%. there are these standard techniques of gathering data and spreading the things that work, that we know, through his

this is the third mass shooting this year in indianapolis. after the heartbreak, i got angry. >> reporter: indianapolis city-county councilor allie brown represents 38,000 people. what are you hearing from your constituents after these shootings? >> people are nervous. people are scared. they don't know why people do this, they don't know how they can go about their day. i'm a mom of a 4-year-old boy. dropping him off at school, i could see how scared everyone's faces were this morning. so when something like this happens, it shakes us to the core. >> reporter: she's been fighting for gun control measures in her state. in your legislative session, there have been at least 18 bills related to gun control, and most of them were to expand gun rights. as someone fighting for tighter gun laws, what do you make of all that? >> it's really frustrating. when we as a city last year had a record amount of gun violence, a record amount of homicides, i've ridden with police officers in their cars who have told me, the issue is there's too many guns on ou

mass shootings. the most recent took place, thursday night, at a fedex-ground facility in indianapolis, indiana. eight people lost their lives. that horrific news is compounded by the number of similar incidents, in recent weeks. in fact, it's the 45th-mass shooting in the u.s., since the atlanta-area spa killings, on march 16th. and some cities have had more than one. now, cnn defines a mass shooting as one, in which at least four people are hurt or killed by gunfire, not including the gunman. officials say they won't reveal the identities of the people who are wounded in that shooting friday but they have released the names of those who lost their lives. they are 32-year-old matthew r. alexander. 19-year-old samaria blackwell. 66-year-old amarjeet johal. 68-year-old jaswinder singh. 48-year-old amarjit sekhon. 19-year-old karli smith. now, investigators in in inside yap lyap lis are combing throug a chaotic crime scene. and reveal disturbing details about how he ended up on law enforcement radar la

5% of the world and 40% of the mass killings? the business community and the american public are not supportive of that even though our partisan politics don't seem to address this part. this is unspeakable. the business community has been in favor of all kinds of regulation through history from product finance and the rest is to have safe guidelines of fair play. when it comes to gun safety, we had a firearms control act of 1934. the business community was behind it and it got rid of the gangsters and semiautomatic of a sort we remember from the old movies. we also in 1994 are the violent crimes control act that the business community was behind. oddly, throughout most of american history the nra were in favor and a gun safety interruption. >> i have to interrupt and come back to where i began. very noble, in my opinion, that which you've just described, but nobody in the american populace elected any ceos and the job of the congress. i come back to where i began. why alienate second amendment purists? why is it good for the bot

six more mass shootings including the latest one overnight. barring drastic changes or am mir miracle, it will not be the last and in as little as a few days it won't be the latest but where we begin with cnn's miguel marquez. >> reporter: in less than a couple of minutes. >> he just appeared to randomly start shooting. >> reporter: eight more lives lost in america's latest mass shooting. >> he was firing in the open, and i immediately ducked down and got scared and my friend's mother, she came in and told us to get inside the car. >> we heard three more shots and then my buddy levi saw someone running out of the building and then more shots went off. >> reporter: the suspect, officers say, has been identified as a 19-year-old man who was a former employee at this fedex. they say he entered the sprawling facility near the indianapolis airport just after 11:0 o0 p.m. last night after opening fire in the parking lot killing four, he killed another four inside. seven more injured in the rampage. >> he got out of his car and pretty quickly started

45 mass shootings in the last 30 days. this is an american story. >>> i want to bring in law enforcement analyst jonathan whackrow to speak about this. you served in the secret service. listen, i shake my head because i can't count the number of times i've uttered these words. a mass shooting in america on this broadcast as a reporter, as an anchor. let's start with this particular scene as we know it. someone with a gun goes to a facility. someone even confronted them outside, that good guy with a gun kind of thing, you know, but that person still died as well. based on the details of this shooting, what can you tell us now about what happened here? >> well, listen, jim, it was only one week ago i was on your show talking about another mass shooting incident. this is becoming too commonplace. time and time again, we are witnessing these tragic incidents which represent now a persistent threat to our communities where no one is immune to this violence. and what we've seen is while the causes of each of these incidents may

they come so fast that you can barely remember last week's mass -- mass shooting. but, the politics is not -- is not shifting. and i am not optimistic, that a compromise will be reached. chris murphy, the senator from connecticut is working hard, apparently, to find -- find a compromise. i -- i do think that the white house is spending most of its political capital on the infrastructure plan. that is the biggest thing in front of them right now. and i think joe biden has a sense -- a realistic sense of what's doable here. >> yeah. yeah. i mean, gloria, david talked about, you know, chris murphy. the lead sponsor of the background-check bill in the senate. he said he is open to compromise, on this. says he's been talking to republicans for several weeks. but again, swaying enough republicans to get a version of his bill passed is, you know, not easy. >> it's difficult. it -- it's difficult. and -- and, you know, the problem is that republicans, over these years, have become more and more dug in. as david points out, guns have become a cultural issue. if you say you

we've already had 140 mass shootings. of the statistics that absolutely sends shimmers up and down my spine is the fact that 91% of children under the age of 15 who are killed by bullets live in the united states. when are we going to do just the same kinds of things like making sure that people that shouldn't have guns, people who are felons, people who have mental health issues and people who have been convicted of domestic violence, when are we going to say that not only is that true when you go to a gun store, it's true when you go to a gun show, when you buy a gun online, when you buy a gun from another person. and now we have the growth of what we call ghost guns. but they're not ghost guns. they're real guns. they're do it yourself guns where you buy the parts online. we have 10,000 of them now in this country and there's no way of tracking them. >> let's talk about that. you mentioned one of the executive actions on gun violence that president biden had rolled out just ten days ago. there are several efforts that

we call these mass shootings but maybe mass killings is more accurate. just like boulder, just like atlanta. but all of the attention paid to mass shootings and mass killing merit some scrutiny because some spasms of gun violence get days of coverage and others don't. this nonprofit research group called the gun violence arc hiv is helping to change that. the archive scours news coverage and tracks every crime. reminds us that most gun deaths are suicide or single homicides and mass shootings are practically every day. the cnn map tells that story and here is the key bit of language. cnn considers a mass shooting it four or more people excluding the gunman are shot and wounded or killed. so there is coverage of mass shootings, there is coverage of the day in, day out gun violence that claims one life at a time but can't be overlooked. there is coverage of police killings and they're on videotape often. and we don't know whether to trust the police in their accounts of what happened. but every time we want to have a broader conversation about the crisis,

a mass shooting that killed 35 people.banned in australia. enacting a national registry and a 28-day waiting period for all gun purchases. and 653,000 firearms were taken out of circulation in a national buyback program. gun deaths in the country plummeted and today mass shootings are non-existent. compare that to america, the gun capital of the world where last year there were nearly 12 gun deaths per 100,000 people, more than 14 times of australia. but there are differences of course. australia doesn't have a right to bear arms in the constitutions with, also don't have a powerful gun lobby like the nra. still could the australia model have lessons for the united states? joining me now to discuss is former prime minister of australia, kevin rudd. he is now president of the asia society policy institute. prime minister rudd, thank you for coming on the show to discuss this. obviously as i pointed out there are key reasons that australia's reforms can't be replicated here in the u.s. the main one being the constitution. au

today, there has been a mass shooting there.en injured. —— one person died, four people have been injured. yesterday, in south carolina, there were five people who were killed, including the shooter himself — he shot himself there. and obviously, in the past few weeks, we have had really quite shocking mass shootings, both in georgia and also in colorado. when you look at the statistics, the number of mass shootings here in the united states, it is estimated that there is about one a day on average. it is also estimated that there have been around 11,000 gun deaths this year alone. president biden there mentioned that most americans are in favour of tightened measures. but, you know, we're talking about things like increasing the background checks, not necessarily clamping down harder on gun ownership, and i think the key thing for president biden is that in congress, particularly in the senate, there just is not the support for the stricter measures, so he will have quite a hard time trying to get those through. ok, thanks for

so there was a mass shooting last week.eople were killed in colorado, eight weeks since people were killed in georgia. it's come to a point where we can say there is a mass shooting situation in america. >> that's exactly right. we have no idea what led to the shooting. there are no details about who the victims are. families are desperate for answers. we also don't have a name of a suspect at this hour. family members have been reuniting with loved ones. the president will be briefed on all of this today. let's go to the scene with jason carroll. jason, you've been on the ground, literally racing there overnight as this has happened. what can you tell us? >> reporter: i just got off the phone with indianapolis metro pd just trying to get more information about the suspect, trying to push them in terms of any description, whether or not the suspect was a former employee, any sort of information, poppy, and they say it's just too early at this point for them to give us any more information about that. they did go into some m

the mass shooting, you know, that i'm talking about, another mass shooting i'm talking about today.t up in politics. but i'm curious as your opinion, if you see gun violence now as the real public health emergency in america today? >> i'm an ear dr doctor. we undoubtedly understand that gun violence is a health emergency. it's also a public health emergency. what i mean fwha is there are public health tools that we can use to address gun violence. study as a public health issue and the same way we study automobile safety. we're not trying to ban cars. we're trying to use seat belts and drunk driving laws to make it safer. that's the same approach that we need to use for gun violence as well. when i was a health commissioner, we ran a program called safe streets that uses community violence prevention methods proven to be effective. so using that kind of public health approach to gun violence prevention is so important especially now. >> good to see you, doctor. thank you. >> thank you. >>> coming up, from sending a signal to china to sanctions against russia to pulling u.s. troops o

mass shootings across the country. deadly police encounters and graphic videos playing on a loop in our head and all of it coming after a year of covid, seems like no sooner do we raise the flags and we just have to lower them again for another national tragedy. # think about what is we have all seen. america has been under assault the past 100 days. the flags lowered at the capitol after the insurrection. when protrump rioters battled police and stormed the halls of congress hunting for lawmakers, yes, that's what i said, "hu "hunting" because that's what happened. more than 566,000 of them. the president and vice president paying tribute to them the night before their inauguration. the flags lowered again and again and again and again over the gun violence that's taken the lives of americans all across the country just the past month. eight people dead. six of them asian women in the atlanta area spa shooting. ten people including a police officer killed at a super market in boulder and now eight people dead at that

leads the world in mass shootings. but why? reeptly asked professor adam lankford who has been studying mass shootings for years. >> i did a study of 171 countries to really look at where do public mass shooters attack most frequently? and why? and despite having less than 5% of the world's population, the united states had approximately 30% of the world's public mass shooters. really, like six times as many as we should have if things were evenly distributed. and in addition we have more than 40% of the world's civilian firearms, to your point about guns, firearm access seemed to be a critical explanation here, you know, i looked for a bunch of different possible explanations but what the data said was that firearm access explains why people here, when they want to do something bad do something so terrible compared to people with bad intentions but less access in other countries. >> politicians often throw out various factors to explain mass shootings in america and one of those is mental illness. take a listen. >> let's targe

social distancing at prayer, face masks at mass.re. yet the final figure here may never truly be known. will grant, bbc news, mexico. brazil's terrible toll of victims of covid—19 has hit another record: more than 4200 deaths in one day, as health services teeter in many parts of the country. a survey this week suggests that even the richest hospitals are running short of critical medicines. more than 345,000 people have died of covid—19 in brazil, making it the second—deadliest outbreak after the united states. terrence mccoy is the rio de janeiro bureau chief for the washington post. earlier, iasked him how bad the situation in the country has become. it has been dire for months, for the entire year in brazil but it is reaching its most critical moment right now since the beginning of the pandemic. in the last three days alone there have been more than 12,000 people who have died. in perspective, more people who died in the last three days than in all of november. in march, 67,000 people died. also in perspective, more than twice

we saw more than 600 mass shootings in 2020.ost in five years but those mass shootings accounted for a fraction of all the gun deaths in america. the gun violence archive research group said more than 19,000 people killed in the u.s. in 2020. the most in two decades. if you add in suicides but gun the total eclipses 43,000. that means more than 100 people are dying from guns every single day. in america. while the debate over assault weapons and the discussion of preventing mass shootings are parts of stopping this plague they're the tip of the iceberg. immediately after the boulder shooting president biden promised quick action, not the first president to do so, for the record he has yet to introduce legislation or sign an executive order on guns even though right now you can go to the campaign website and see the dozens of gun control initiatives he promises to enact as president. in congress the house passed background bills and now languishing in the senate. just this year the u.s. has already suffered more than 10,000 gun v

murder. -- used for this mass murder. we have a firearm restraining order that took effect in 2019. the law allows family members and law enforcement to petition the court to temporarily move firearms from the possession of an individual who presents a risk to themselves or others. a firearm restraining order has been issued 59 times under this illinois law in two years. estate of 12 million people, it's been used -- in a state of 12 million people, it has been used 59 times in two years. i've talked with law-enforcement officials and point out it takes resources to carry out these orders, they need help. i think this is a tool, not the overall answer, but an important tool that can save us. if it avenues, i think it could have saved those eight lives. i thank you for discussing this. -- for calling us in today to discuss this. one bill is not going to solve gun violence in america, but shame on us if we reject a common sense approach that most gun owners endorses the only sensible way to take -- to take guns out of the h

and it's not only these mass shootings that are occurring.ry single day, every single day there's a mass shooting in the united states, if you count all of those who are killed out on the streets of our cities and rural areas. it's a national embarrassment and must come to an end. >> and just in the last few hours, police have released the names, identities of the eight people who were killed during america's latest mass shooting. >> yeah. they range in age from 19 to 74. here are their names. several of them were members of the sikh community. officials say the investigation is still very much in its infancy. cnn's miguel marquez is in indianapolis with the latest. miguel, we just confirmed over the last few hours that the apparent suspect was a former employee. >> reporter: he was, indeed. he left employment here at this fedex facility. it's a massive facility, one of the largest that fedex has in the world last year some time. we also know that this individual 19 years old was on police radar last year, in march of 2020, his mother called

first, as you know, mass shootings are not new to this country. we experience mass shootings in the united states at a record, you know, on the order of magnitude 10, 20, 30 times higher than many similar nations. so they were down for a while during the pandemic while people were largely locked in their homes, so there is an understandable depression there. the other thing i would cite is there is no question that people in this country are feeling great stress and, in many cases, depression and friction about family and work matters as a result of the pandemic. so you have this -- maybe a perfect storm of issues coming together at the same time. people are returning to the workplace, they're under great stress economically, socially within their family units, and the combination of those factors could be playing out in this very violent and tragic way. but, again, we need to get some perspective on these events and take a hard look at them. >> andy mccabe, thank you very much for being with us. as we said, we're just getting details and scant de
