so this unit was sent to spartanburg, and they were given orders, don't fight back. you guys all hear jackie robinson, you know, he's all famous for not fighting back. well, this is a whole unit of them. and when we say not fighting back, i mean, i'm not dissing jackie robinson, but basically, there's a huge difference between people yelling at you from the stands and actually getting beaten up on the street which is what happened to these guys. and they were specifically ordered, do not fight back. because if you do, the unit's not going to be sent overseas, and we're going to be disgraced. and they held pack -- held back with superhuman discipline. and finally they got a chance to get overseas. and then they were sent to dig ditches. and that was infuriating. and they finally, finally lobbied to be put into combat. but here's the row. during the first world war, the united states was kind of late to the game. and by this point the british and french really wanted reinforcements and they kept saying to the americans, oh, good, you're in the war, come on, give us ree

mariano shields died just a couple of weeks ago in spartanburg, south carolina. not only had she taken out a restraining order against her husband, robert shields, but she had gone the extra step to bring her and her kids, her daughter to a domestic violence shelter. she was staying in a shelter. but her husband tracked her down at the shelter, and just after she had dropped off her child at a bus stop, she was killed. the staff at the safe home, as you can imagine, were paralyzed by this crime. the director said my staff and i are totary devastated. it's -- totally devastated. it's your worst nightmare when you work with a shelter. i don't think there is anything that we could have done to protect her. that's right. there wasn't anything more that that domestic violence shelter could have done to protect maryann shields. but there is something that we can do. we have all sorts of disagreements here about the future of gun laws in this country, and i understand in the foreseeable future, mr. president, that we're not likely going to get a bill that expands the sa
