steve: joining us with an update, democratic florida senator bill nelson. good morning to you. were able to tell america some of the details. what's the latest? >> fact that this fellow apparently was really premeditated. he had a gas mask. he had smoke bombs, and he hit the fire alarm so that kids would start coming out, and into the hallway. brian: how would you gauge the response time from law enforcement, from when they were alerted, and when they acted, what they did? we did hear he was hurt and brought to the hospital. how did he get hurt? did we hit him at all? >> i don't know the answer to that but i do know that law enforcement was there very quickly. ainsley: senator, i know you were born in miami. then you moved to central florida. fort lauderdale is between the area where the shooting took place. do you know anyone that lives there or talk to anyone that lives there or has kids that go to the school or connected to it? >> i talked to the superintendent of schools. i know him. he is really shaken by this. and he is bound and determined that the community and the scho

steve, is a conundrum. it doesn't happen in great britain the frequency it has here. it happens but it doesn't happen in these numbers. you heard senator nelson, senator rubio. wait for the facts. see what the deal is. there's a hunger to try to figure out how we as a country are going to tackle this. >> there is. as mara was saying, it's really hard to take. no child should have to see things like that and have to recount them in the way we just heard. of course there is a natural human reaction which is to say there must be something we can do. there must be some policy of some kind and make this not happen. the british perspective for me is, having been here six years in america, and lived here and understood things i didn't understand when i lived in the u.k., yes, it's true that in countries like the u.k. they look at this and say what's the matter with them? why does this keep happening? why can't they sort it out? now that i'm here, i understand it's not as simple as that. there's a heritage and culture and history here. some solutions that may seem obvious in other countries are not obvious here. it's important to point out when we se

steve hilton. good of you both to be here this morning. very serious conversation this morning. senator bill nelsonhe democrat from florida was on the ground at the site of wednesday's shooting a few moments ago and he is jumping quickly, juan, to the gun control debate that we're hearing right now. >> i think that one of the stunning things about this week is that we really may have finally reached a tipping point where most americans across political lines agree on the need to get something done. in part we need to shift the paradigm of how we talk about it. if we simply say gun control you can imagine the response from conservatives, from the nra, no, you aren't taking my gun. i think if we talk in terms of gun safety. in terms of background checks which have overwhelmingly support both from gun owners, republicans and democrats and talk in terms of mental health precautions we can get something done. >> sandra: nikolas cruz passed a background check in florida. >> he shouldn't have. >> there is a lot of truth in what juan is saying there. it feels to me like there are two groups of people let's

steve bannon, call your office. >> dana: could be he wants his name out there in case there's another opening. we go to florida. another poll talking about the possible senate race between bill nelsonck scott. this is showing bill nelson at a 46/42 and harry enson our friend tweeted this. this q pack florida state poll looks like the other nelson advantage. clear sign that scott is at or near the apex of his popularity in florida. >> even though harry works at cnn, he's still right. ah, no. this race is going to be one of the hottest in the country. this will be one of the most expensive, one of the most awful. it will be everything that i love in a midterm senate race. it's gonna be right there in florida. >> dana: it's going to be so hot down there an you'll have to travel down there in the summer. >> the sweat factor will be unbelievable. >> dana: the state senate seats in connecticut, new hampshire. democrats have been winning a bunch of them. they won 39 this year. is that a big deal stphr >> how much of a deal have republicans made about the hundreds of seats they took away from democrats under obama? democrats led by eric holder are going to steal that play book. they're doi
