host: you mentioned the mayors against illegal guns group already abroad at newtown. host: a recent report that they did look at school shootings dating from december of 2012 to february of this year. they noted that there's been 44 school shootings around the country, resulting in 28 deaths, 37 non-fatal gunshot injuries. they include a map of the different places around the country where those have happened. you mentioned armed guards. what else can be done to stop this? >> these bloomberg studies are very jimmyed and i suggest people read jim lott and he's a statistician and so many of these things are suicide or other kind of violence, as far as outside of the school. they -- when you dig through bloomberg studies to get to the numbers, it they don't take -- host: when you say bloomberg studies? guest: he's the sole funder for it and it's called mothers against -- moms demand action. it's part of his group as well. he's the sole funder for these things. and he also funds hopkins, a large school on this gun control violence. so when the boss has an agenda, it's har

overwhelming numbers after the newtown shooting and regrettably we did not get that. if you say today with the nra was saying in 1999, that this is a dangerous threat to the constitution -- the bad news is that there is no easy solution to the problem of gun violence. it is similar to the problem of illegal drugs, the social costs are high but there are people who value them highly. if you start with guns in circulation it is very hard to come up with controls that will work effectively if you were starting from scratch. and even if you know what quirks, it is hard to get an emblem -- hard to implement this. there are some good ones, i like to be optimistic. the gun merchants are not as bad as the debacle companies -- tobacco companies. in terms of life lost. most of the guns buffer protection never cause any harm or benefit, they will just sit there. most accidental firing simply bounce off of the wall. if you are following last week in frankfort, kentucky, just before the state of the state address, the governor was cleaning her gun and fired a bullet that ricochete

governor nixon, you wanted to say something in particular. >> after newtown and other disasters we've folks trained in mental health first aid. 29 mental health liaisons out there, pilot projects to make sure folks that show up in emergency rooms don't just end up in jails, back and forth. i think a lot of states are doing that exact thing. while washington talks about kind of what size of gun or what type of gun, it does absolutely nothing, we're actually on the ground out there trying to interact with young folks who have mental health problems much earlier and to empower people to help them. >> i want to move you to the death penalty issue. i am interested in it because i keep reading things -- actually we have three states where the death penalty is still legal in -- connecticut now you don't have the death penalty, but i've been reading more and more articles that say the death penalty is beginning to fade, it will eventually out by attrition because of the problems with drugs now, because europe won't sell them. we've had some executions that did not go well and that the numbers

one of the things i wanted to talk with you about, governor malloy, post newtown, connecticut enacted stricter gun regulations and they were already pretty strict so you are up there in terms of how your gun laws are seen as some of the strictest in the nation. these three gentlemen, democrat, two republicans, have states that really have a gun culture in what's seen as a positive way in how it's handed down from generation to generation, hunting, skeet shooting, that kind of thing. does anything or any of the looser laws on guns in these states hurt connecticut? >> i think we have a federal problem in the sense that we are rejecting the idea that we should have tighter controls on who has a gun. universal background checks would make everyone safer in their states and in mine. it is a starting point. we should not be assigning or allowing folks who have mental health challenges currently to acquire guns. we should not have a system that allows people who have extensive criminal records to get around -- >> i don't think any of you all would disagree with that. would you agree there ne

it's not too long ago that wayne la pierre described in the wake of the newtown shooting that peopleandy, there were people looting in brooklyn, which was an absolutely falsehood and a lie. and lastly i'll say, this notion that everyone's afraid to sort of name race and racism as the problem, americans have an amazing ability to intuit ill will, duplicity and bias when it comes to their political opponents and when it comes to their foreign leaders. foreign leaders in other nation. so pew tin writes an editorial and everyone intoo oo constitut all of his ill will. barack obama has a hidden agenda. so this is absurd that we are not sophisticated to understand that just because is people don't say something, doesn't mean their ideas are not informed by an attitude where race matters. >> but even if we got that the laws prevent them from using in the common sense in the jury, because the instructions say that you give the benefit of the doubt to the person's subjective fears. >> there's two things here. number one, the jurors are lying. okay, that is the starting point. the jurors are l

newtown comes to mind. every disaster we have seen, were paying attention to that. atactually had conversations the pentagon in terms of the armed forces, recognizing there may be a role for red cross to partner where service members may be less inclined to work through their own chains of command and systems, but working through neutral third party, an organization that can provide capacity. those are the kinds of opportunities -- we are all in a resource constrained environment. thinking need not be constrained. having conversations across, between and amongst the military families, the governor of the state and local families is where we can find opportunities for additional partnerships to increase our capacity overall. we have an infrastructure in the red cross. i will walk you through what that looks like. have 320ally we emergency response vehicles. you have seen those rolling through your communities, providing support and relief supplies to citizens. that infrastructure is distributed across the country. it is managed at that level. we have warehouses, at l

the worst day that i've had as attorney general of the united states was the day that i went to newtown to thank the first responders, crime scene research officers who were there and they took me on a tour of that school. and if people had the ability, if the american people, if legislators, members of congress had had the ability to be with me on that day, to walk through those classrooms and see the caked blood, to see the carpet that i didn't understand when i saw it, carpet picked up and i realized that was -- that's where bullets had gone through and picked up the carpet. if people had seen the crime scene search pictures of those little angels, i suspect that the outcome of that effort that we mounted last year would have been different. our resolve remains the same. my resolve is as firm as it was back then and i think what we should also understand is that the vast majority of the american people still want those commonsense gun safety measures that we advanced last year. our commitment is real and we will revisit these issues. >> and on the subject of the use of the president'

walks into one of these schools and is able to perpetrate the kind of violence that adam lanza did in newtown, connecticut. and we are sending a message of complicity when the united states senate and the house of representatives stands absolutely silenced in the face of this violence. i have come down to the floor almost every week, and i hope almost every time i arrive at the floor, i let my colleagues know that i don't expect that any law that we pass is going to reduce 31,000 or 2,600 or 86--- 86 to zero. i understand the reality is there is no law that we can pass that will end all incidences of gun violence, that there is no panacea to this problem that congress can offer, but we send a pretty clear message when we do nothing, when the senate does not act, when the house does not act. we tell people in this country that we must be okay with the numbers that continue to accrue and move upward. i know that that isn't the case. i know that my republican colleagues are just as sickened as i am at 86 people dying every day from guns. i know that supporters of the n.r.a., gun owners themselve
