@@RiskyOpinions , sorry, too early to tell. Be a good chap and post your source for your statement. I’ve been following this very closely, in fact just watched the chief of police making a statement and no mention of motive was made. No matter the motive, it’s insane that the parents gave their clearly troubled child a 9 mm semi auto.

Brianna, they want you to become numb, never let that happen to you.

Sportsbeast740- gaming- it happens over and over again. A bad dream from which we can never awaken. The answers are there, we need the will to be strong and resilient against this illness. It is an illness in this country. As a society we are soft and fat and full of sugar. We can't think straight enough to act in our own self interest
Yep! So USA had THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY since Sandy Hook? Well Australia for example hasn't had THREE in the nation's entire history. Funny that isn't it. We notably do not have the death penalty or easy access to guns, both things which change the perceived societal value of human life and turn human bodies into expendable rage targets instead of living , breathing autonomous people with their own hopes and desires that have intrinsic value. 1. Drop the death penalty 2. Slowly phase down access to guns in tandem with authorities cracking down on *illegal* gun posession so that criminal groups can essentially be locked up for half their lives if they are found stockpiling firearms. Then the somewhat legit claims of good people needing weapons in the home will be far less legit and people will have more confidence that people need to be very specially trained and have extremely sound mental health to own an appropriately low powered weapon with a very small amount of ammunition
Miss Keilar, it feels right to see that for you, reporting on such a tragedy, is not just "a job". It's good to see real human beings with real feelings on the screen from time to time.

The sad fact is that this was 100 percent preventable in so many ways by so many people. Kids were staying home because they knew something was going to happen...
@@williamwinn948 this was, if the father wouldn't have bought his child a gun. Also if the patent would have checked there child before school and if the admission took action
@@williamwinn948 Weeks of warnings signs exacerbated erratic illustrations of infamy. This was 100% preventable, but the parents saw this as a 2nd amendment showcase. Send the entire family to have life in prison as charges.
When Brianna said, "she hates covering stories like this," it broke my heart, and when her coworker said, "one thing I can promise you, you going to have to do it again." It's sad that we have to be expecting another school shooting like this because some of these parents refuse to get the help their kid needs. There are so many children who are overlooked at home and in school with mental health disorders, these problems are distressing to children and disrupt their ability to function well at home, and in school, or in other social situations. Parents need to pay attention to their kid's behavior, mood swings, and for the love of the universe, talk to your kids, if there's anything bothering them you have a chance to address the situation before it gets out of hand. You are the parent(s) and your responsibility is to take care of your kids. It's good that the parents are being held accountable for their actions as well as that child. Praying for all the families who lose a loved one in these school shootings.
Thankfully I dont have kids. And my mom has raised me well. Yes I watched my first horror film when I was 8 but hey they are fun not like Michael Myers is someone to become
I don't think school shooting has ever happened in the Philippines before! Mass shooting is really something unique to the US and it's really heartbreaking to see! I don't know how you guys can let this happen to your kids over and over again. It's totally crazy!!😔
The last school shooting in the UK was in Dunblane in 1996. A certain Andy Murray was one of the schoolkids that survived. The public reaction was total horror, and gun ownership was restricted even more. It was already nearly impossible to own a gun in the UK. Not quite impossible but very nearly, thank goodness!

The mother is incredibly strong. I met Brianna Keeler once at an exercise class in Washington, DC. She was warm and kind. This video reveals her humanity.
Brianna, someone like you, someone who is not numb is incredibly important. I hope you continue to do this work. You are my favorite person on CNN, because you are the most human.
The loudest cry is that of a mother that just lost her child. You wanna feel chills run through your body. Listen to her cry thats called pain.There is nothing like it. Listen to the story tellers. Nothing touches mothers cry.
I am crying, NOW as a parent AND a grandparent...... sickening. This could be anyone of us facing this VERY TRAVESTY! I don't even want the children going to in-person school. Virtual is tough......however, SAFE.😥

Why is it so hard to believe other's have feelings about children being shot and killed. It really got to alot of us 🇺🇸 because it is senseless.
I love that Brianna can be free with expressing her emotion over these travesties. She kept it together through her tears - something I most can't do so well. I hope people (and schools) listen and learn from these parents of victims and implement emotion regulation/healthy expression for their children.
This is not the first time Brianna has been brought to tears. It's happened several times before. This is one of the reasons I like and watch her; she's feels and shows her feelings just like her viewers do.

If a minor person shoots and kills someone with a gun that belongs to their parents. And the only reason the shooter had access to the weapon is because the parents didn't lock them up, than the parents need to be sitting right next to their kid, facing identical charges. Being too lazy to lock up dangerous weapons needs to be dealt with in the seriousness that it deserves. It's willingly putting the world at risk because of one's own negligance. Its the same as a drunk person killing some innocent traveler on the road, negligent homicide. Same should go for guns.
I agree. And this is the first time they arrested the parents. Finally. After how many ever school shootings we have had since Columbine. I think this arrest of the parents will send a message to all of the other hillbilly parents who buy guns for their underage children for Xmas.
You know what's even better? Not having these lethal weapons in the house or even nearby. Stop the insanity already, ban all guns, stop selling guns, confiscate guns. If nobody has a gun, nobody else needs one either. Look at European countries: we have no guns, we don't need them. Search for news about school or drive-by shootings. How many will you find? None. And you know why? Because we don't have guns, and very good laws to protect us against the insanity that we keep seeing in the US.
That comment seemed so cold in the heat of the moment... Especially as she was very visibly upset by the topic as a whole. Trying to hold it all together, while big tears fall down her face and her voice breaks... But is he wrong?? Heartbreakingly, no.

@@ashleymitts It is the reality of the situation, and there was so much power in his final statement. Everyone needs to understand that without change in policies, parenting, or gun laws, we're bound to see this happen again in the near future.
What we need is personal responsibility in this country not emotional nonsense. If you know your child is bullying another child you should do something about. I'm not going to say people deserve to get shot but sometimes they bring it on themselves

As a retired teacher, I can definitely relate. We drilled every year and it was always in the back of our minds that this might happen. I can definitely state that my former admins would've checked his backpack, locker, and car if he had one. So it really angered me to hear that they ignored the teachers' warning signs and didn't follow through. It's just damn stupid and horrible.. and heartbreaking.
I wouldn’t want to be a teacher right now. You are expected to teach, be a health provider, police, etc. Those teachers that jumped in front of students at Sandy Hook or were locked in closets singing songs to the small children as the shooting went over the loud speaker is unfathomable. I watched the transition last year. I had two in elementary school. In those grades they call them, “lockdown drills.” We live next door to Parkland so that was already in my mind as I sent my oldest off to Jr/Sr High where is is much more prevalent. I was use to my children no longer telling me about the drills because that was their norm now. Then my oldest came home and told me new policy at the older kids schools. They are no longer cheeky and call them “lockdown drills.” They call them what they are, “active shooter drills.” In my kids 2-story school they strategically sit larger kids, boys towards the door. They are told to start pushing everything in front of the door to block it while the other kids start exiting the windows. Even on the second floor, my child was taught hang/drop from window because they will not die from that. They might break a limb, but they could very likely die from being shot. It’s sad to be fortunate to have A.) a girl and B.) to have her be of smaller frame/stature. Sadly, it’s even sadder to be happy we have five girls because girls don’t fit the description of a school shooter. What has this world come to?
@@cherylbritt7227 I wholeheartedly agree with your msg. Profoundly, in fact. But unfortunately, with this particular topic, it's not, "what has this world coming to?" Instead it's, "this is what America has come to." 🙁
I can’t believe these admins didn’t act. My admins would’ve had the police there and things would be locked down. I hate that I have to do active shooter drills with my ten year old students. We talk all the time about what we have to do with a shooter in the building. I grew up in a world where this was unfathomable.
Exactly, how do school administrators and counselors ignore it? According to social media related to Ethan, students wrote that they tried in vain to tell school administration. Some students didn’t even go in on Tuesday. These kids know what’s up; the selfish administration clearly doesn’t and it frustrates a lot of people.
The male news anchor was correct, but he misread the emotional state of his colleague. What he said was completely inappropriate and disrespectful for that moment.
Yes that was a pretty nonchalant statement in her time of emotional breakdown. Chris Cuomo Would not have missed that opportunity to soothe her more appropriately
I see comments of other 20 something year olds saying, "I'm glad I'm old enough that I didn't experience this in school". But just think as we approach 30 and people start to have families, you will be sending your little ones to school if not the very same ones these tragedies happen in. Unfortunately this is a revolving door it doesn't just stop because you're no longer in elementary, high school or college. People need to look out for one another in America more, this could've been stopped at so many stages.
It’s horrifying. I was 14 when Columbine happened. Now I have a 13 year old. She’s homeschooled. Not because of these things happening but the ability to keep her home is a relief in moments like these. I’m terrified for other parents and their babies.
@@BookishDark right! my friend fiance is a teacher, shes starting with little kids but will eventually move grades up in the coming years. Make me worried for all school staff that you just never know when this can occur.
@@sandrafrancisco The problem isn't guns, the problem is that you live in an inherently sick society, one in ten Americans over 12 years old are on anti-depressants, your children are brought up watching the media glamorize thuggery, drugs, sex and violence. You know there are other countries who have similar gun laws to the US that don't have mass murders happening in their schools every other month.
I'm not a parent, but I am a very proud Aunt of a 21-year-old niece. These shootings, each and every single shooting causes me anxiety, tears that I can't stop flowing. I can't imagine losing a child, much less to a shooting in a school where they should all be safe. Parents should never have to worry about the safety of their child or their children while they are in school, period.
We honestly need to both reform the school system as a whole and understand modern familial relations as there are deeper reasons to the reason kids are turning out this way. Also, yes, guns and access to ammunition are an important factor, however he used a pistol as opposed to semi-automatic weapons commonly used in attacks. Without actually understanding and changing this modern, dysfunctional society that cannot agree on political issues or Covid, how are we expected to fix this very real problem with our kids? What examples do they have? Us? Some of us act as badly as they do
@@jamtommy6446 so how did you react to this mother who lost her child? Just curious. And if you were brought to tears, would we collectively judge you or feel compassion for you? Whether you care or not, my guess is that everyone who has commented here would express the compassion you seem to lack. Amazing how politics takes precedence over your humanity. That’s what is fueling your disdain, right? Politics? Pretty sad, brother, but whatever helps you sleep at night I guess.
As did most of the modern world eventually, the US seems unable or unwilling to just turn around and look at the rest of the free world to see the way forward - because - ' mah guns'
They don't want to & they surely don't share every school shooting... Ppl just worry about guns guns guns & less regulations 2 get them & have them plus the actions they can lawfully do 2 shot someone else... Most pathetic crap ever.
We just had a mass killing from a SUV should we ban SUV'S? We also just had a mass shooting with bow and arrow not to long ago, should we ban bow and arrows too? The school and the parents seen there was issues with the son and no one did anything about it
@@jimbeam9176 That's bullshit, we could learn a thing or two from other countries regarding gun safety, considering the fact that the USA is the only developed country suffering from this problem. But we won't, we'd rather cry and send thoughts and prayers, and blame other things. Ridiculous.
As a left leaning person, the debate is lost. There are more 400 million guns in the US right now, and gun sales during the pandemic was at an all time high. Push for better health and educational reforms, thats the only way we to minimize it.
This was important. I am numb. I haven't been emotionally gutted by a school shooting in years. I didn't even flinch at this most recent one, but seeing Brianna get emotional reminded me of the reaction we should have every single time even one child is murdered in one of the places they should feel safest. This was a much needed reality check for me, and I suspect many others.
Me too. This was in my state, a couple of miles from some friends of mine. I haven’t kept up with them for awhile but they had school aged kids. I’ve been trying to get ahold of them.
@@sigsin1 Same here. My friends there I have not seen in about 8 years - they were business friends and I got out of the business and live on the west coast of the state now - in Muskegon. But I did get through to one and was relieved to hear that her youngest graduated last June. But she is still a mess. She and her family are very close to a lot of the kids who were there, and their parents. And she can't help but think that if this had happened just 7 months ago, her kid would have been there.
@JK F1 No kidding. Not only does their own social media show them to be serious gun nuts, but if they had checked in on their son's they would have known he was planning to do this. And it sounds as if they encouraged his infatuation with guns, and gave him unrestricted access to the murder weapon and plenty of ammo.
The fact that this mom gets out there everyday and fights to make change and keep her sons memory alive makes her a hero. She is so strong. I would probably want to crawl in a hole and die. I don’t have that kind of strength and courage
Didn't see any CNN anchors shed a tear when kids and granny's were run down by a black man in that parade in Waukesha recently, either. Guess it didn't fit their narrative.
Here’s an idea for you america- instead of worrying how to fund mental health in schools, you could adopt a free solution we have in the U.K. Not sure your gun loving culture will prioritise the idea of your school kid’s lives above your bang bang obsessions though.
There was a SWAT standoff across my 7 year old daughters elementary school just this year, where the man apparently had fired shots before ending his life. The school went on soft lockdown and my wife and I were in a panic because we had no idea what was going on. I immediately thought of Sandy Hook. Just the thought of losing a child like this is just unfathomable.
I get so tired of the plastic face that reporters put on when reporting these horrible crimes. I know it's professionalism but it's refreshing to see real reactions and a real convo between them. It's ok to cry and smear your makeup. Wish we saw the raw human emotions more often. TY for being human with us. I don't like to cry alone.
@ACC I also think a video of an unarmed black man being slowly killed in public by a police officer had something to with it too. Especially when it was found out that nothing would've been done about it save for that video. Think of all the time, trouble and lives that could've been saved if someone took the time to understand why some people started kneeling instead of cancelling them? Many tragedies could be avoided if people took the time to listen to each other.
Dear Parents….. Please be involved in your kids lives. Please ask them how their day was. Please teach them to be respectful to others Please shower them with love…..love…..and more love
She is absolutely right! The signs of some children’s behavior is noticeable at school. If there were enough mental health workers within the school they could observe children that require some support. If educators within the school witness abnormal behavior from a student then it could be reported to a mental health team that works in each school. The problem is American schools is much more focused on distributing $$ each year to other things and not something so important such as the need for mental health workers. The lack of resources and funds for such an important reason is troubling. Funds should go towards increasing mental health workers in school settings!
The FBI now confirms the shooter is a BLM supporter and he was inspired by Ilhan Omar and identified himself as a Democrat socialist.....................
how hard is it when people send there kids to school in the USA... do you think about home schooling ? or even skipping education all together just eat berry's kid look bear poo eat that
Yeah, this is a club I never wanted my state to be a part of, but was sure we would eventually. Sadly, I am fairly familiar with this nice town. I used to have a couple of small clients there. I called the law office of one of them, this morning because I had gotten fairly close to them. I couldn't speak to the lawyer I was calling because one of his clients is the parent of a victim and he is with them, but Mary, his receptionist - a lovely woman - was telling me that her youngest child graduated from that school last June. She can't help but think that if this had happened 7 months ago, her son could be one of the victims. And yet, too many people don't care. They love their guns more than they love children.
The US society is okay with this…. If they really want change they could force their leaders or better yet replace their leaders who keeps siding with the NRA and the gun industries.
@@archforge Not true, but partially so. Partly by accident of history, and partly by direct action by the GOP, this country is set up for minority rule. Did you know that the 50 Dem Senators represent 41 million more voters than the 50 GOP Senators? Gerrymandering is another fun tool to ensure that. It is designed to make sure that no matter HOW MANY Dems come out to vote, they cannot win the majority of seats. This is why the voting rights bills now pending matter so much - so that our society CAN do that.
Brianna you are an amazing person. The sacrifice you give to provide the news is awesome. Hug who you love and rely on them to help deal with these horrors you face.
The root cause isn't isolation & disconnection - that happens everywhere in the world. The reason mass shootings happen in the US far more than anywhere else is easy access to guns.
There is easy access to guns in Switzerland. It’s definitely something within American culture. The kids who commit these acts clearly have issues with all of the things the Sandy Hook mother mentioned. The solution isn’t simply one thing-it’s multifaceted. Swiss kids are raised to learn how to use guns. They have had ZERO school shootings. There is not one simple answer because comparisons of Switzerland to America is apples to oranges but it’s the best comparison because they too, are a nation that respects firearms. Within their culture it’s seen as a high responsibility tool much like driving a motor vehicle for example
Yes the root cause is easy access to anything.. So, like the incident in Wisconsin, the media places the blame on the suv and not the individual.. But, ok, I'll play along..let's ban all suv's and guns !
I own guns. My father owned guns. I learned to handle a gun safely as a child. All my friends, growing up in Maine owned guns and knew from an early age how to use them. We never had a problem because of guns. The problem is society and the fact that we're raising a generation of weaklings. I buy guns in order to defend my home and the very right to own them if need be.
Does it very touching and human story. The mother of the Sandy Hook child has all of my empathy. she is absolutely correct we must be more civil and more social with one another.
Instead of fighting for the unborn fetuses I HOPE the GOP will join hands with the democrats to do something about this gun violence and save our already born children! We cannot get immune to these senseless incidents! as a parent I feel their pain so deep...
GOP is hip-deep in NRA money. The $$$ mean more to them the the life of a child. Obviously. Edit: It’s reprehensible and beyond disgusting! It’s a sick world we live in………
The GOP only cares about winning elections and power. Gun violence is meaningless to them because their base are all 2nd amendment nuts. Abortion rights are meaningless to them because their Christian/ Evangelical are against it. It’s all about winning elections
I am sorry S AVANT but your hopes are empty. The GOP will answer gun crime with a demand for more guns being held by the "good people"; not acknowledging that lots of good people do stupid things on bad days and when you have a gun that stupid thing is likely to be shooting someone else or yourself (there are about 40,000 gun suicides a year and the same number of gun crime deaths). Until the American political/social/health system starts caring and believing people can be good rather than telling everyone that they have to look after themselves and that they would only misuse any extra money they got, there will be no change.
Brianna, we watch you every single day you are on and we love and appreciate your compassion and dedication to the news of the world. I cannot imagine being the “bearer of bad news” when these things happen. Thank you again for everything you do for us. ♥️
I rather watch the Halloween films and Friday The 13th films altogether. Prob have more chance of crying at the end of Halloween Ends next year. #LongLiveMichaelMyers 🔪🎃
All non Americans might not live in "the greatest country in the world", but at least we don't worry that after seeing our children off to school, if the next time we see them it might be in a body bag!!!
@@inadz.1111 I’m a student in the American School system and yeah my school has a few run ins. I only said that because everytime something tragic happens some dipshit has to say “ this doesn’t happen in my country so we’re better “ like stfu nobody in one of those situations even thinks about that. People in other countries who say those things don’t know what it’s like to go to school thinking if that’s the day you’re going to die or not
Young girls get groomed and turned into sexual slaves and then killed on a mass scale in UK and Europe, but Police don't dare investigate because they might get accused of racism...the numbers are in the thousands possibly millions.
Negligent Gun ownership. No more characterizing these as “accidental” discharges, or simply accidents either. Gotta be a big boy to get big boy toys. Guns require responsibility to own.
I can’t believe that I’m finally Saying this , because I use to be ((for)) Stronger Gun Laws. But Ladies an gentleman. It’s just Way to many Guns out there. Just about everyone has or owns a Gun. It’s just way too many Guns to stop it . And my biggest reason for not even bothering to change the laws is the fact that , if someone wants to commit a crime badly , like that 15 yr old kid . They’re gonna do it anyway. Most of um have so much hate , that they don’t even care about the consequences of having to go to jail etc. I just think that it’s all in Gods hands. He’s the only hope that we have.
Tears are pouring down my cheeks. My son went to Pearl Ms. School when the shooting happened there. It's was the first ever school shooting , not college shooting. A nightmare that never ends. He is now 33 by the grace of God . My heart goes out to all the parents of the beautiful children taken away to soon. There needs to be more love and hugs in today's families.
The Republicans will ring their hands n say its terrible but let's not be hasty and ban weapons that really only belong on a battlefield being sold in the cities.all these idiotic Republican politicians who love posing with assault rifles whose sole purpose is to kill & maim,not even used for hunting animals,its so horrific kids dying n nothing being done bout gun laws
We feel your pain Brianna. I live 35 minutes from this school and my daughters school was one effected by the copycat threats. I have friends and family in the Oxford school district. Watching my daughter hurt and fear going to school or fear just being a kid, kills my soul. I have coworkers that were working in a Connecticut hospital at the time of the Sandy Hook incident and know people effected there and my heart truly goes out to all these parents and students. Thank you Scarlett for sharing your views on how these incidents can be prevented because I also believe that this isolation and social media uprising has really played into the emotions of these young children. Please be aware of your childs habits and engage with them. Love to all!
Please, any trolls in this comment section just remember your humanity before you start writing all the nasty stuff. Please, for once show some respect 🙏
I love Brianna for being human on camera. She demonstrates that this tragedy touches us all and that it is alright to be public with our feelings. It’s a refreshing reminder that while we can’t cannot control our feelings about a situation, we CAN and MUST control how we manage our behaviors.
The root cause is gun availability…when are people going to understand this simple basic fact. In my whole life, I personally have never had to use a gun in defence of myself or others, nor do I know of anyone who ever has!
Mental illness is the root problem. Loneliness. Isolation. She said it in the video. The warning signs were there. If someone drives an suv through a christmas parade killing women and children is it the SUVs fault? Parents shouldve done better.
I know personally someone that used a gun in defense. I think accessibility is a problem, before anyone can purchase fire arms they should prove they have a secure location to store them. My family always keeps them locked up in a safe and locked in a closet.
@@willr4880 but guns just make it easier for mass shootings. These kids are dumb, take out all the school shooters and ask if any of them know how to make a bomb to kill a whole school if guns were not available.
@@tlfilms207 guns just make it easier with mass shootings? No shit. You cant have a mass shooting without a gun. So what do you suggest we do? Ban guns? Just high capacity magazines? Which is how many exactly? Dont ban them but make it so they all have to be safe and secure, where their not in your home to defend yourself. Mothers against drunk driving didnt try to ban alcohol...or vehicles. They put the responsibility on the person
@@sonicvasquez4673 I couldn't agree more. The whole point is that kids are impulsive and should not have access to guns period. The guns need to be locked up, and parents who are irresponsible with their weapons need to be prosecuted.
Exactly! Spot on,Scarlett. All kids see day in and day out is bad news, infighting, lies and it never ends so what can we really expect. Huge change is sorely needed!
Ya, it had nothing to do with the gun he had such easy access to. Newsflash, kids are depressed around the world, only in the US do they shoot up schools. Find the one common denominator and focus on that.
@@Zaphodbreeblebrox Of course, it had everything to do with guns , especially in this case with mommy and daddy buying him the gun--not normal in any other society--only in America. As long as Americans continue their addiction to guns, death will continue. Huge change is sorely needed but unlikely to happen any time soon. Too much money involved and money is America's God.
@@pdoylemi Sure you do. That's the point--your"right" to bear arms is killing everyone. Only in America! Between anti-vaxxers and guns, you are wiping yourselves out; or should I say "your rights" are killing you. How stupid is that? Only in America.
This should be STOP!!!. Gun controls should be put in here... How'd come a child could bought a High Caliber Gun himself??. Sounds a lil fishy to me! .. 🙏🙏😥😥
When kids become killers it's a reflection of failed parenting.It's a parent job to know what's going on with their child. Teach children morals, respect, love for others as well as themselves, anything other than that will grow into a menace to society.
People, including myself learned that some children and adolescents aged 4 to 19 became first time murderers for so many years. They definitely need to other kids how to be good people in this world and never repeat the same horrible mistake just like these 4 to 19 year olds did in the past.

As a parent that last statement John just made to Brianna just hurt. Even if we know she will cover it again very soon,John saying it like that just hurt
I had a horrible childhood . My dad didn't realize my mom was already married with kids who abandoned her 3 kids and would abandon me. Was bullied by a neighbor for 10 years , mad fun of at school how I dressed .I guess in todays world , would kill those people .But I didn't. I am 64 now training for my 10th Ironman race, did 35 yrs with the USPS and see todays kids in life as soft . In fact parents , teachers can't and wont do to kids what was done to me to keep me straight and strong . And when I was a kid, guns and that culture was not as it is today . We used our fists in school. I did beat up that bully after 10 years, not kill him. We cant change people , but like cars , we did change them to make them saver to drive , along with laws on the road. Time to change gun laws and access to them and then the gun culture will be changed which will save lives . That is within our power to change, not what is within the homes . So glad I'm not a teen today .
Old man nobody cares about you and your childhood. My dad is a cop as is my older brother and they both showed me how to shoot, not to just go around putting holes into people but to protect myself and my community. We need more good people with guns not less, and we need schools that actually do their jobs and stop letting people be harassed by other students
I've had a quick look through the first dozen or so reponses, and it's remarkable - shocking - that it's only non-Americans who express astonishment at the prevalence of gun-ownership in the USA - Americans simply say that there should be more gun controls. Well, how about exercising full gun control by outlawing gun ownership unless you have a very strong, professional reason for owning one? I know it would take at least a generation to achieve this, but - you know what - how about the USA taking the UK as its role model for once, instead of vice versa?
Exactly. Even the bereaved mother said the "root cause of these shootings was loneliness." There's a lot of loneliness here in Australia, but without easy access to guns, loneliness doesn't translate to school shootings.
@@FurianFlame129 Bullying has been around for a long time. When I was growing up in the 50s and 60s, if we were bullied, it usually ended up in a fight after school away from the school property. There would always be an audience of schoolmates. No one ever pulled a gun. The biggest difference now is social media. Bullying via social media is out of control.
@@nebtheweb8885 fights still happen like that. Problem is more and more kids have mental illness and social media and the constant source of negative information (news media) doesn't help. There were still school shootings through the 1900s though. Media just wasn't as big so you didn't see them or know about them
Watching The USA from the perspective of people like me living in France, it is absolutely insane to see individuals being proud to own guns that are causing so much untimely deaths between school kids.Can someone educate the rest of us Why some Americans buy, love and Play with guns despite their evident disastrous consequencies.
It’s an ego thing I think, there’s people that go to the grocery store and feel the need to have their gun showing while it’s holstered.. why the heck does anyone feel the need to bring a gun to a supermarket? But it’s usually the weak people with guns. Somehow that makes them feel feared and that’s exactly what they want; to intimidate.
Well allow me to explain. The USA has ~15k gun murders a year, by comparison, the fbi says there are atleast 200k defensive uses of firearms each year (ppl legally defending themselves). Also of the ~15k or so murders with a gun, the overwhelming majority are committed by ppl illegally possessing guns (over 80%), so please explain to me how preventing law abiding citizens from having firearms (gun control) is the answer. On the topic of mass shootings, the idea that the usa has uniquely high rate isn't based in reality. Its hard to actually track and define mass shootings but the crime prevention research center has a study comparing the annual rate of mass shooting deaths of the USA, Canada and Europe, and what do you know, the US isn't particularly high on the list, in fact France's rate is higher (.3 per million as opposed to .08). School shooting, while horribly tragic make up a infantile percentage of actual gun deaths in America, and sadly is used as a tool by the media to push gun control. What ppl like me in America think is insane is to look at a couple anecdotal incidents and consider that evidence the issue in the USA is the guns, especially when 80% of murders in the USA are drug/gang related.
It’s beyond belief to me , how can your lives of children ever be lost to someone with an armalite ,or any other firearm for that matter, I served in the British army and learnt respect for the gun, how can teenagers be allowed to get access to them ,
@@bnose202 the fact that an AR was even brought into the conversation just shows dishonesty. I do like how you immediately try to insult someone you've never met though, shows that you function at a very high level. The problem is, and never was, access to firearms, it is the lack of responsibility being promoted in this country that is causing these issues.
@@mikedennis8213 I will add my son is a serving police officer in Liverpool, and yes guns are sometimes used, but he and a vast majority of his compatriots would never want to be armed, your still living in the Wild West,high noon and all that shit
If it was not the guns he could easily use a knife 🔪 and go on stabbing individuals or worse running people over with a car. The root cause is not weapons it's the mental state of the criminal.
@@nilnil8411 bulls1t you may be able to stop someone with a knife. Much harder if they've got a gun as they can take you out before you can even get close
@@nilnil8411 so....explain to me why there are no such things as school massacres in other countries where there is weapon legislation and kids don't have access to guns
What bothers me and what bother all of us as well is the National Rifle Association's "good guy with a gun" nonsense. Wayne LaPierre has brought with that "good guy with a gun" nonsense and he is having a lavish lifestyle with all the blood money.
@@la_sn3ak3r19 Law abiding citizens? Civilians cannot use firearms unless if you are in the military or in law enforcement. Therefore, confiscate the guns.
I cry about the 9,941 Black men, women and children who have been murdered in the streets last year (this is 2,000 more than the year before) and CNN doesn't care enough about them to report on this outrage! Say THEIR names - well, I guess you can't if you don't even know that they were murdered!
Tucker Carlson is a real sociopath for attacking Brianna Keilar the way he did. She displays more empathy in this one video than I've seen from him in years.
@@mikehawk4714 From my point of view Tucker Carlson is fake. I used to believe him but he lies so much about Covid now and I almost died from Covid. I can't stand him anymore because he doesn't care about ordinary people. Sure, I understand why people who are better off would like him but he should at least stop pretending that he's fighting for everybody and just admit that he doesn't care about the less fortunate.
The Republicans say no abortions cause they care about the unborn, 350 school shootings since the Sandy hook shootings, why not concentrate on the children who are alive and make it safe for them with real gun control , but they turn a blind eye to this so they can keep their base happy and keep the reelection campaign funds flowing, my heart goes out to this mother and her brave son.
