she survived. 32 people were killed in that virginia tech shooting. since then, ms. hawes, lori hawes has advocated for gun safety, for gun violence prevention. she is now the virginia state director at the coalition to stop gun violence. and days like this are forward for the country. they are certainly hard for the survivors. they're a particular kind of hard for family members who have been through this sort of thing so traumatically before. ms. hawes, thank you for being with us tonight. i appreciate you taking the time to be here. >> thank you for having me, rachel. >> obviously there have been a lot of mass shootings and even mass school shootings since the one that your daughter survived in 2007. i can't imagine, he to, how -- what kind of renewed trauma it must be for you and your family every time there is another horrific incident like this. >> it is really a trauma. it's renewed trauma for many, many families, dozens if not hundreds and now thousands of families who have been traumatized today, last week, the week before, the week before. you know, we see t

history at virginia tech in 2007.f course, in the ten years since the virginia tech shooting, the united states has experienced one mass smooting after another, all the worst mass shootings in u.s. history have occurred since 2007 but that day at virginia tech was a day our next guest, who served as the state's governor at the time and in its aftermath says was the worst day of his life, senator tim kaine of virginia joins us now. it's interesting, senator, that the president talking there, the republican president talking there, the politician, not only was extending his thoughts and prayers to those who died at that tragedy but also supported background checks like ronald reagan. >> right. >> also supported a ban on assault-style weapons and you live in the state of virginia. two governors, the last two governors elected have supported gun safety legislation. why can't congress at least pass a ban on bump stocks that most americans support and also support background checks that 95% of americans support? >> joe, tha

you taught the man who went on to kill 32 people at virginia tech, seung—hui cho.happened? i reported the student to a number of different entities at the university including law enforcement and dean of students and so on because i knew it was very difficult for there to be consensus about what needs to be done so i always tried to make sure i got as many people involved as possible. but take us through why you were so concerned about the student. this was a student who was 23, 22 years old, he had not spoken much since he was two years old. he suffered from something called selective mutism which meant he did not speak out loud often in social situations but he also seemed very angry, and he wrote an angry poem about class and i did not think it was safe to leave him in the class. the only option i had was to try to work with myself which is what i did. but things have changed that time. for the most part you can get help for students but the trouble is you can still only get it for a couple of days off them and then they can come back to the classroom because th

virginia tech, 32. newtown school shooting, that was 27. you remember the southerland springs church shooting last year in texas in november, 25 died. columbine. colorado, my hometown, 13 dead there. that was 19 years ago. this according to bill bratton the former nypd commissioner is another example of how the country seems to have this sick preoccupation with guns. it manifests itself into these really terrible mass shootings. >> we've talked about criminal situations where all it takes is motive and opportunity. that's the questions that are asked in a courtroom. you talked about the possible motive, disenfranchised, anger, a sense of being outside the incrowd, whatever it is. what about the opportunity, open carry state florida. how hard is it to get an ar-15 semi-automatic weapon with multiple magazines, ammunition magazines? how hard is it for a person? is it simply a retail operation, you go in with the cash, you buy it. >> a lot of states do i have open carry laws. let me make clear my comments about the preoccupation with guns pap

after we go back and look at virginia tech which i mention this yesterday, i am from virginia, and friends from high school who attended virginia tech at the time. two handguns killed 32 people. you look at nice, france, a truck and kill 96 people i believe, solicit completely disingenuous argument and there's also this argument of congress needs to do more, government needs to do more but you look at the failures of the system with the florida shooting whether it's the fact that the police went to the house 39 times, this was alerted to the fbi twice, he was reviewed by a mental health institute in florida. again, right down after breakdown of the system in plac place. >> harris: i have to ask you because in addition to your secret service work, you are an nypd officer and i know you and others i've talked to say domestic violence cases are the most deadly that you've ever faced in the field, externally unpredictable. >> dan: i got hit -- i got hit by an ironing board one time, the only time i ever got attacked at a domestic call. the guy literally picked up an iron cord and buckled us in

which is why the numbers still stand. >> sean: that was virginia tech. >> correct.at we see carried out with handguns, -- with firearms, 45 to 65% of them are with handguns. 2.2% of them are carried out with rifles. the other thing i want to address. >> five out of the six last massacres were ar-15. >> let me finish my point. you talk about -- you just admitting that what you are calling a juvenile assault weapons ban won't solve the problem. you are not allowed to infringe on people's constitutional rights if it won't solve a problem. >> sean: dan bongino, hang on. real quick. >> it is a small step but it is a positive step. >> you just said it won't solve anything. >> it's a small step. >> this is based on a faulty premise that geraldo you are falling into this trap, okay? criminals don't give a crap about gun laws, knock they don't. guys, listen, what is the defining characteristic of a criminal? they are outlaws. they don't care about rape laws, robbery laws, burglary laws, gun laws. you are not slowing them down. >> this is a same defeatist attitude that preven

let'she go back to the virginia tech shooting, the deadliest shooting in the history of this country,n that case, the shooter used pistols. what the left, the media cannot seem to comprehend, or don't want to comprehend, is that evil exists in this world. there are murderers, there are, there are child molesters, there is evil. byse the way, if they don't usea rifle, and the case of the school shootings, than it is going to end up being a handgun the next time. after that, it'll be anotherpo type of weapon or tool. remember the boston bombers used explosives that were made from everyday products that are readily available. other terrorists have used trucks, vans, and cars. others have used knives. what would ban everything? as much is left in the media want to think of the government can fully stop these killers, doll mark with regulations and laws, they cannot. people that have this evil, they will always find a way to cause pain and suffering and inflict maximum carnage. the only thing that comes with banning weapons is that you will infringe on the rights of constitutional, law-abi

. >> virginia tech one of the worst school shootings. >> hold on let me -- let me just tell you this.ther country haves done the same thing. they have banned, done background checks. they have done sensible gun legislation. and guess what? they aren't nearly where we are when it comes to guns. >> let's talk about background checks. everyone brings up background checks. >> wise. >> almost every case they passed a background check because they hadn't been adjudicated and weren't guilt of crimes. there is no background check you can devise. >> you could devise it. >> so how are you going to jude kate someone who hasn't. >> joan wait a minute. you can do a background check have the length be longer. >> if you're talking. >> also where it doesn't have to be jude indicated. it could be a doctor. send people to be checked. checked records when it comes to psychology. >> people who are troubled and mentally ill have more interventions i agree with you. i agree with you but you're criticizing donald trump for saying that. >> i'm criticizing all politicians. >> it's a constitutional right. >> r

>> okay, virginia tech. >> how do you know that? >> and we're not changing -- >> what weapon was -- >> hold on, hold on. let me tell you this. other countries have done the same thing. they have banned, they have done background checks, they have done sensible gun legislation. guess what they aren't nearly where we are when it comes to guns. >> let's talk about background checks -- >> even percentage-wise -- >> everyone brings background checks. almost every single case, they passed a background check. because they hadn't been adjudicated and they weren't guilty of crimes so there's no background check -- >> there is, there actually is. >> adjudicate it -- that's the problem. >> how are you going to -- >> this young man -- >> if he hasn't committed a crime -- >> joan, wait. you can do a background check, have the length be longer, you can -- >> if you're trying to -- >> you can have it where it doesn't have to be adjudicated, it could be a doctor. you could send people to be checked. to check their records. >> if you're saying we sh

what about the virginia tech massacre.is not about how he got the gun, it is about arming schools to thwart an attack. about none of the arguments hold up this in case. here is many other arguments that don't hold up. the gup was bought -- gun was bought illegally. and someone should warn that the gunman had mental health issues and in this case someone did. the fbi was given a tip involving a youtube comment with his name on it said, quote, i'm going to be a professional school shooter. the fbi acknowledges getting the tip but it is not clear what they did with the information. the other arguments to avoid debate might go something like this. well cruz shouldn't have been allowed on school grounds and he wasn't, he was expelled. the school should have been armed. in this case it was. a school resource officer was on campus and was armed. while the school should have been trained for this. and in this case it was. by broward county. the president said there were so many signs that the florida shooter was mentally disturbed

and survivors of other mass school shootings like sandy h k hook, columbine and virginia tech will join them. they're pleading with lawmakers for unity and meaningful change to the country's gun control laws. the student's protests are getting strong support from other school district officials. >> i am extremely encouraged by our students. they have exhibited intelligence. they have exhibited outstanding communication skills, passion for what they believe in. and they're stepping up and they're saying, hey, we're going to be the generation that gets the change done. >> meanwhile, president trump will hold a listening session with high school students this week. a white house schedule says the president will host those students and teachers on this coming wednesday and then meet with state and local officials on school safety on thursday. dray clark, nbc 10 news. >>> thank you. meanwhile, president trump spent part of the holiday weekend lashing out on twitter over the russia investigation. in one tweet the president wrote kwoe quote, they are laughing in moscow, get smart america. demo

but after columbine and virginia tech and newtown and all these, the perception was more of these kids did hear those things thought it might be realistic and did report it. it's really kind of astonishing to be hearing now that it was right out there on social media and nobody was turning them in because we have a huge number of foiled plots. a lot of those we don't hear about, but there's more plots that are foiled or whatever you want to call it, where authorities close in and arrest them before it happens than do happen. why that didn't happen here, i don't know. nobody sort of came forward. >> the other commonality in the aftermath of these, of course, is those who say, well, if this is not the time to talk about any kind of gun legislation or gun control -- i mean we hear that time after time, and then the moment passes, and of course nothing then is ever talked about. >> right. excuse me for rolling my eyes there. i mean that is the most cynical tactic and so obvious, and it also falls apart where there are youtube videos now of famous victims and survivors of many of these peop

having worked for eric cantor in the past, i remember really clearly anytime the virginia tech shootingt up, there was not just a reverence for the more than 20 victims, but a recognition of the response of virginia tech was how we got it right. we got it right because it was bipartisan, and multilevel. it was led by tim kaine, the then democratic governor of virginia, and republicans working together, public private partnerships working together, that's what we need to see electorally. we also need to hear a whole lot more moving in the right direction from the sheriff's office in broward county. >> let's talk about the sheriff right now, because the sheriff had a few controversial statements over the last 24 hours, many of them came right here on cnn with an interview with jake tapper. the issue here is how his department responded to the many, many warning signs that something could go wrong with this shooter and then how specifically one of his deputies responded while the shooting was happening. listen to what the sheriff told jake over the weekend. >> do you think that if the brow

some things came from virginia tech. in newtown, legislatively they never even really got a vote. they couldn't vote to end debate on the four proposals in the wake of the sandy hook shooting. so the question now is, is there something -- congress is not going to spend a whole lot of time in washington this week. you know, with every passing week it becomes that much harder because the reality is some other story, the cameras go somewhere else. these kids will continue, i think, to speak out. there will be a rally next month in washington. but congress tends to work on the urgency factor and with every passing week, there will be a little bit less urgency. >> and that is the sad reality as you point out. before i let y'all negotiatiogoo get your take on that. sarah sanders was asked about what's changed, who lost their security clearance as of today. sarah sanders not biting there. dana, there's a lot of questions whether, especially about jared kushner's status. is there a sense of when we may get an answer and know when re stands? >> hopefully soon. that is the question, whether

virginia tech. we have these unbelievable horrific stories. you know, having been in the business so long, it's so sad to see the same behavior happen again and again. you know, i remember talking to one metropolitan chief. we were in the middling of violent crime issues in the city, and he said, you know, if we could just get people to quit putting their guns in their glove boxes and under their seats because there are so many thefts and those guns all turn up in crime. you know, it's true. we have so many of the guns that are attained by criminals in burglaries and car thefts. and these school things, they usually come right out of the home. >> right. >> you know, when you're sitting -- just think about your kids' school. there are parents of kids in that school in every school who have guns at home who do not secure the guns. >> let me jump in with some new information for all of us here. the broward sheriff has tweeted out some new information confirming that there are at least 14 victims. the victims have been and continue to be transport
