tired tired of the nra! tired of them prostituting themselves and buying politicians in this country. you can argue and call us names but you got to deal with god. and the blood of our children is on your hands. and you will pay for the murder of our children. >> so somehow the reverend is blaming the nra for the elevated number of homicides. i have a hunch that the elevated number of homicides are committed with handguns that are probably not obtained legally, tom. >> i agree with everything you say. and i don't think these a good looking t-shirt over the priest outfit. >> too low? >> i don't like his fashion either. i agree. it's ridiculous. going after the nra. he's been singing the same song. i don't think -- i'm ever going to listen to father flager. >> it's difficult to be constructive in what this is all about. if you're going to try to stop the violence in chicago trying to make the link to blame the nra when i doubt many of the guns are being legally used for those with permits for them. i don't thi

we were talking about the nra. they supported the pennsylvania universal background check... >> they did. >> ...when it passed in the 1990s. the problem now in political terms is that the nra thinks that, "oh, the folks who want to do background checks really want confiscation," and the folks on the other side say, "oh, the nra doesn't want background checks because they don't want any restrictions," and so it's the typical polarization that we see on so many issues, and that makes it difficult to move and both sides get hard, but the other thing that strikes me as a political historian is that we really have a deeply ingrained cultural problem in this country in race relations that requires new ways to think about how minorities and whites -- how we live with each other, how we deal with each other, how we integrate with each other, how we function together as a nation to complete a process that started with the extinction of slavery, that went through the segregation period. we're not close to that yet, and that'

the nra did not like the bill you signed, the nra still has a lot of power in your party. are you going to talk about guns as you go out on the campaign trail? governor pataki: i always believe states are the laboratory of democracy. i believe we were doing what we had the authority to do, but at the federal level, it is totally different. i don't think they should change the gun laws in washington at all. they should do two things -- -- one is enforce the existing laws better. the criminals running them from the south do that constantly. and mental health. the horrible incidents are people who are mentally ill and have not gotten treatment. john: you make the distinction but the nra does not see it that way. are you worried about their influence and what they are going to say about you? governor pataki: i worry about what i believe. people are going to support you are not. you do your best. john: do you believe a woman's right to an abortion is a constitutional right? governor pataki: it is right now because of roe v wade -- john: should it continue to be? governor pataki

watch this. >> i'm just tired, tired of the nra. tired of them prostituting themselves and buying politicians in this country. at the end of the day, you can argue us you can call us names. but you've got to deal with god. and the blood of our children is on your hands. you will pay for the murder of our children. >> now we invited father flager on to the program but he declined to come on. joining us is the president of the brady campaign dan gross. how are you? >> good how are you? >> we talk a lot about this subject. you have experienced gun violence in your family which is personal to you with your brother? >> yep. >> i explained to you my position i want anybody who owns a gun to be really safe about about it. people say to me, i know you recommend you have carried a gun. >> where do we disagree? >> it's important to focus on where we agree. there's a lot of overlap on our points of view. i enjoy having those conversations with you. there is common ground. and common ground where we can achieve a calm wantommon goal. i think be

the nra just once to push guns. but this is like the united states culture as set by the media outlets and our own leaders who, you know, they are in the political game and they have to play on emotion and so show demographic factors , simplifying things and they don't consider the impact of geography, culture and under underlying societal conflicts that are impacting today's generation. i believe that our country would be better served if we had leaders like loyd feinstein. guest: who? host: lloyd blankfein. caller: he doesn't let emotions impact his actions. he evaded most of the investigators' comments but he did so in a way that was clever and what i'm saying is that we need people who are impartial, who do not let emotions impact them. who take in all the perectives and try to put it into one coherent narrative. host: amanda, thank you for calling in and watching. hope we hear from you again in 30 days. any reaction for that young lady? guest: she is right about letting emotions getting in the way of rational t

look, i understand the nra's thinking, they don't want the big government.y don't want their name on a list to have guns because they think the government is going to come in and seize the guns some time down the line. i got it i understand it. the greater good is served by a very precise okay, campaign. a very precise campaign, super advised by the federal government, which is their job to protect americans all right from guys like dylan roof. now, dylan roof under my scenario would have gotten a gunnyway because his nutty father gave it to him even though he knew the kid was a loon. we can't protect people from that we can stop the gang violence. we can stop the murder-for-hire business and we can take off streets fast. last word? >> reducing the daily death toll from guns. we need to get those numbers from chicago down. focusing on trying to stop a crazy terrorist like this guy in charleston is really not going to further the ball. >> no, it's futile. >> there is always going to be someone who is going to be crazy and get their hands on a gun when we have

guest: interesting, the history of the nra. i have had a number of people say i should not call the end of the acp t -- the naacp the oldest civil rights organization the nra is older. they started as a gun safety organization. especially after john f. kennedy was assassinated -- they clamp down on gun ownership and gun access. that was when nra's shifted and became much more defensive as a pro ownership group opposeding restrictions and regulations. host: according to fox eight, dylann roof confesses to killing benign people in the church, and wanted to start a "race mowar." attrition willems -- patricia williams has an op-ed this morning and "the new york times." she writes that we must resist the comfortable fiction that whatever racial turmoil exists as i will swear, genteel charleston is a place of kong. the killing of walter scott showed otherwise. we must do more than a knowledge the fact that for all of our legal advances, i can walk into any number of charleston's finest restaurants and not see anyone who looks like me

why on this issue is she saying, you cannot fight the nra in washington, d.c.?ohn: she has a long memory. she has been through a lot. she has been to her husband's administration. she saw al gore and barack obama also find out you cannot fight with the gun lobby. she has an opening to take on the gun lobby if she wants to, but i cannot help think the scars she has tell her that it is a losing battle. mark: if this is a mobilization election, and all elections are, states like ohio, virginia colorado, even new hampshire could be in danger for hillary clinton if the nra is more riled up than they are now. they are pretty riled up against her. if she wants them more riled up, she has a history. john: you could not rile up the latino vote without running up a counterforce. by now, virtually no one in their right mind doubts the charleston slaughter was inspired by racial hatred. now the focus is shifting to a conspicuous symbol of historical racial animus, the confederate flag. the confederate flag flies over the capitol grounds in columbia, south carolina. is this

. >>> plus, the nra reacts to the charleston massacre. >> we want to have a debate or at least we want to talk about the confederate flag. >> as the presidential hopeful expands gun access in his state. >>> and ad vent nurses fatherhood caught on tape. bobby jindal's presidential announcement and the father who made the single greatest catch in the history of foul balls. the father and son will join me live when "all in" starts now. good evening from new york. tonight the nation is in the midst of a stunningly rapid shift on the confederate flag with all the back lash it inevitably provokes. if there is a single image that captures the moment we're in, it is this. the body of reverend and state senator clement pinkney arriving at the state house today where he became the first african-american to lie in state will at least since the reconstruction era just after the civil war. passing right by the confederate flag, that flag embraced by the white supremacist who murdered him a week ago tonight where he was pastor. while governor nicky haley and other lawmakers have called for the flag

you mentioned the nra. what did she say in her interview to you regarding the strategy.oesn't she believe you can still work with the nra to some degree and find some sort of compromise? >> she talked a lot about how many gun owners will accept what she calls common sense sensible gun reforms and i know gun owners in nevada who are willing to vote for universal background checks. there's going to be a ballot question in nevada. but the devil is in the details in these thing, alex. you're going to ban one gun but not another? it's very very difficult to write these laws and, of course everyone says they want to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill. but then there are the ones on the -- in the nra who say, listen, any gun control law is the nose under the tonight try to confiscate our guns and they use that kind of rhetoric. they raise money off of it. they scare politicians with that kind of rhetoric. so it depends on how you find common sense and sensible and the nra doesn't want to hear those words. >> john, listen we took this interview live -- this statement

. >> unfortunately, the grip of the nra on congress is extremely strong.egislative action being taken this this congress. and i don't foresee any real action being taken until the american public feels a sufficient sense of urgency, and they say to themselves this is not normal this is something we can change, and we're going to change it. and if you don't have that kind of public and voter pressure then it's not going to change from the inside. >> joining us now is senator richard blumenthal of connecticut. do you agree that nothing that happened in charl sfon is going move congress? >> in connecticut, lawrence we understand that anger expressed by the president, the grief and shock and horror that we felt in the wake of newtown and with the congress that failed to enact measures like straw purchases and mental health initiatives and school safety but we can break that grip of the nra, and we cannot surrender. we can't walk away from this fight. and i will never forget one of the conversations i had with some of those newtown families when they said to me

the nra is something like 5 million and they have been around for 100 years and we have 2.5 million andery short time. americans are realizing there are steps we haven't taken yet that we can take and realizing their involvement in this process, them telling their elected officials this is something i care about, not just this week after something has happened and grabbed our attention, but in next month and the following month and that sustained activity on this issue -- we will see us achieve the day where we actually make improvements and do a better job of keeping guns out of the hands of people who inflict such carnage. amy: colin, you were shot four times? >> yes. amy: do you still have bullets in you? >> yes. amy: how do you respond to people like sean hannity, a number of republican politicians who when asked in the wake of the killing, what about what president obama raised, and they attack obama for using this as a political opportunity instead of just mourning the dead? >> i don't think it makes any sense. like i said, it is beyond time. we should have had a conversation abou

but to think that this republican congress which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the nra is going to move on this is wrong. you had a board member of the nra blame the reverend who was leading this bible study for the fact that he was shot. because in the south carolina legislature he had opposed allowing people to carry weapons concealed into a church. now, i cannot imagine the horror that could have occurred if people were sitting around with concealed weapons this thing started and you had a full scale gunfight. you might not even have three survivors. but i think in 2016 in democratic primaries this is going to be a big issue. i think that the nra will try to use it in states like kentucky and west virginia and the general election to try to defeat the democratic nominee. but i think at some point the continuery is going to rycountry is going to come to the place where it says we have to do something. how many more tragedies like this do we have to endure? >> great to have you with us on tonight. more on the response to this charleston shooting coming up. >>> and later hillary cl

what techniques does the nra used to block gun control? guest: they have perpetuated a myth that they are all-powerful and any legislator that votes for gum safety measures is going to lose -- gun safety measures is going to lose. in virginia, you have senators you have a governor and an attorney general who are all actively campaigning for gun safety. they still one. -- won. they showed the inner rate is not the all-powerful entity. it perpetuates here too much. there are simple decisions from the past and we see now on a local level elected officials standing up to the nra in winning their elections and changing that dynamic. host: colleen is in tennessee. caller: thank you for c-span and i am a gun owner. when we going to have someone next who makes a living toward spreading hate. if a person would get a weapon to someone who can't own one does the gift or face a --gofterifter face a penalty? guest: that's a great question. i want to be sure that i am correct. on the federal level there is no such policy. on a state-by-state basis, ther

before that the nra was a gun safety organization. and wanting gun training et cetera.me down to defending the second amendment. >> if you're bobby jindal and barely registering in the polls, you need attention, so you say things that grabs headlines, like saying this about the nra and saying we should get rid of the supreme court. because he has nothing else going for him. >> in case you're worried, the president will defend us against trans fat. radical islam, not so much. ann? what is that supposed theo teach us? >> or what's his alternative? the list of cliches from the announcement speech was interesting. i mean he didn't really have much to offer. far less in fact than christie did today. >> speaking of christie. google's put out their list of what's trending right now. and people are still obsessed, excuse me, governor with his weight. they want to know how much weight he's lost how much weight he still has. >> not bridgegate? >> well that's coming. but people are really -- if they're all interested in your weight, you're not going to be elected president. if tha

voting against concealed carry. >> isn't that incredibly tone deaf at this moment. >> yes, and the nra specialize in that. >> you mentioned in your piece that the ame church was born from struggle. >> indeed. >> explain that for a bit. >> i'm actually a member of the first ame church that ever existed. >> in philadelphia. >> yes. >> that's right. >> that is my church. that was founded by richard allen who started the free african society in 1887, and in reaction to discrimination discrime occurring. >> it was formed in response to discrimination. >> it was formed out of response in discrimination. you have people in a colored section in the back of the church. they decided to take this free african society and form their own church, and in 1873 mother bethel was started. that church inspired morris brown, he was part of that african free society was down in charleston when they built a hearse house basically a hearse garage on top of the black burial ground in charleston. that provided impetus for them to split and form emmanuel ame. >> the president of the naacp says that we can over

personally saying he does not foresee any legislative action on the part of congress and blaming the nra grip on congress that is preventing anything from happening. he has also started to really push back on the defensive against critics that say this is a sign that says he is re-signed that there is nothing he can do in the fourth quarter of his presidency. here is president obama last night in san francisco. >> i was simply making the point that we have to move public opinion. we have to feel a sense of urgency. ultimately congress will follow the people. we have to stop being confused about this. at some point, as a country, we have to reckon with what happens. it is not good enough simply to show sympathy. >>> president obama will spend the weekend here in palm springs for a little r&r, perhaps a little golf. the white house says at this time he has no plans to visit charleston. >> i wonder right after sandy hook there was a discrepancy and the president said congress will follow the people. there was a discrepancy between what the people wanted and wa congress did. where the people

. >> so as long as nra has that power, nothing will change? and sandy hook, 55 yes-- >> i understand, i understand that, but i mean this is a really specific question. as long as the nra has power you can't get those votes. >> we have to have the voice of the public heard more loudly than the gun power. we are getting laws passed about we had a majority in the senate. they're coming around. that would have been considered unthinkable. >> but it didn't pass. >> but six states have voted to expand brady background checks to all gun sales. unfortunately, south carolina is one of those states. those states see 46% fewer women killed by domestic partners, and fewer law enforcements law enforcement killed by guns. we're going to continue this march state by state until congress wakes up and gets the message. they're typically the last ones to get the message but we have incredible momentum. one thing to point out it "s" it took six votes to pass the original brady law. we're going to stay with it until we succeed like we did the first time. >> dan,

straw purchases and mental health initiatives and school safety, but we can break that grip of the nrae can't walk away from this fight. and i will never forget one of the conversations i had with some of those newtown families, when they said to me, we know that there are measures that can be taken. they may not save our children. they may not have prevented this tragedy in newtown, but we can save lives, we can't stop the violence. but we can save lives. 90% of the american people want us to break that grip. >> now guy charles, in a country with the kind of virulent racism that exists, this is a recipe for a horrible event like this to occur? >> it is definitely a recipe for this type of an event. when you combine easy access to guns with a vile, white supremacist ideas that are available and invite this type of action, it is not a surprise that an individual can walk into a sanctuary such as a church and commit the types of horrific murders that he did. and the president is right. something needs to be done about that. something that's sensible. such as background checks that are se

look, the nra has a strong hold around your congress but there's something you can do. know whose job that is right now is the candidates. if this is going to be a national conversation then it would be a national conversation in the context of an election. maybe if a candidate wanted to run on this. i want to say thank you to kelly ann douglas coming in, the rest of the panel is sticking around. up next one way to honor the work of reverend pinckney, protect voting rights. just show them this - the american express card. don't leave home without it! and someday, i may even use it on the moon. it's a marvelous thing! oh! haha! so you can replace plane tickets, traveler's cheques, a lost card. really? that worked? american express' timeless safety and security are now available on apple pay. the next evolution of membership is here. there's a more enjoyable way to get your fiber. try phillips' fiber good gummies plus energy support. it's a new fiber supplement that helps support regularity and includes b vitamins to help convert food to energy. mmmmm, these are good! nic

. >> when we talk about that where does nra come down?mon ground or compromise between those that would want to defend the right to bear arms second amendment, and the progressives that want to try to clean up guns and get them off the streets. is there that common ground to be found? >> universal criminal background check should be that common ground. if you look at those surveys i talked about, over 75% of members of the national rifle association support that idea. it protects law a biding citizens rights to have a gun to defend themselves. it's just designed to make sure that people who have criminal histories can't get their hands on guns. which is why you have that broad support including among nra members. the national nra lobbyists use scare tactics to pretend this is simply the first step to take away law a biding citizens to have handguns. that scare tactic helps fill coughers of nra but also adds to death toll of gun violence in this country. >> thanks for your time. appreciate it. >>> still ahead in the next hour, what you nee

it's our job to break the nra's grip on congress. i was endorsed by the nra eight times in vermont.ed so far to the extreme right that i'm embarrassed by that. they are a trouble-making group of people who feed extremism. we ought not to allow that any further. >> howard dean ron christie, i appreciate you both. good to see you guys. >>> still ahead, more from the a.m.e. church in charleston and the healing service there. i'll talk to the pastor of the second presbyterian church that is just blocks away from emmanuel. audible safety beeping audible safety beeping audible safety beeping the nissan rogue with safety shield technologies. the only thing left to fear is you imagination. nissan. innovation that excites. welcome to fort green sheets. welcome to castle bravestorm. it's full of cool stuff, like... my trusty bow. and free of stuff i don't like. we only eat chex cereal. no artificial flavors, and it's gluten-free. mom, brian threw a ball in the house! seems like we've hit a road block. that reminds me... anyone have occasional constipation, diarrhea... ...gas, bloating? yes! o

i have a lifetime voting record with the nra somewhere between d and f, coming from a state that haso gun control at all, i cast what was a pretty brave vote banning assault weapons, doing away the gun show loophole and in substantiate background checks so that we make sure that guns do not fall in the hands of those people who should not have it. a strong record. but let me tell you this george, in terms of gun control, if we're going to have any success, what we need to do is bridge this cultural divide between rural american and urban american and come up with some commonsense legislation, which includes everything that i just voted for and maybe more and we can't have people dem goeging against folks because they go out hunt. rural american has to understand that guns in vermont is not the same thing in guns in chicago where they're used to kill kids or shoot at police officers. i think we need a national dialogue and coming from a state that has virtually no gun control but having voted time again for strong gun control, i think i'm in a position to make that happen. >> you're f

made it clear that the cynical actions of so many politicians when it came to the refusal to cross the nratheir unwillingness to combat racism in any way that puts votes in risk have bloody consequences. political ramifications for this event, can we see a more honest discussion on the policy issues? >> i hope so. 92% of gun owners support background checks. very simple thing. there was a bill that came to vote in the senate in 2013, 54 senators supported stronger gun laws. that's enough to pass. if the laws, if the rules of the senate were being used as intended we would have had change after sandy hook. we have had none. hopefully the fear that this -- the nra or gun owners will come after you, i'm here to tell you, republicans, it's okay. it's safe. 92% of americans don't agree on much. we agree on this. >> erica, thank you for joining us. as we mentioned, president obama is addressing the conference of mayors in san francisco today. coming up, we'll hear from oakland's mayor about her vision for her city, something she's calling tech-w uity. with reddi wip, fruit never sounded more del

fearing that that would incur the wrath of the nra the national rifle association and also incur theth of republican whose believe in gun rights. and the second reason why things are unlikely to change, is after sandy hook, where more than 20 children were shot dead in their classroom by a mass with a gun, and remember, at the time, barack obama was passionate about trying to get something done, he made several televised addresses. he went to the memorial service for the children, he said he was going to invest his political capitol in getting things done. and nothing changed. and so if you can't change it after something like sandy hook, it is unlikely that will bring a change in the united states, unless people go to the streets. unless people say it does have to change. and although in many polls americans say they want different gun laws, when it comes to voting who want to change things they don't. and so it's likely to remain the same, and will do for some considerable time yet. >> okay, thank you very much indeed. there are now more refugees in the world. almost 60 million peo

the labor unions are in there now saying listen, and the way that the nra often does, if you're not with us on this, we're going to campaign against you. we're not going to support you. so the labor unions are coming very hard. omnibarra, a congressman in california has seen as against him, so it's really coming to his backyard. >> as if the international challenges were not great enough how normal is it for a lame duck president to be facing the kind of legal challenges to key parts of his term, including on the aca the affordable care act and the immigration where his executive action is not working because the district court has said you cannot do this. you cannot allow 5 million immigrants to have deferred action and not be deported. how normal is that for for a president to be facing this degree of legal challenges late in his term. >> whether it's normal or not you have a very passionate opposition to the president, who are saying, listen, in order to get this done you have to pass through these hoops that we've set up. one of those hoops is the supreme court. they're going there.
