among them an 11-year-old who survived at uvalde. she described in chilling detail her experience and what she wants to see following the tragedy. shot the little window, went to the other classroom, then he went there s a door between our classrooms, and he went to there and shot my teacher and told my teacher shot her in the head. then he shot some of my classmates and the whiteboard. when i went to the back, he shot my friend next to me. and i thought he was going to come back to the room, so i grabbed the blood and put it all over me. if there was something that you want people to know about
that was a survivor at uvalde at the robb elementary school. this i thought was particularly, you know it s very moving. you feel terrible for this young girl. do you feel safe at school? why not? because i don t want this to happen again. you think it s going to happen again? martha: she nods her head that she thinks it s going to happen again. senator lee, a little girl that was put in a situation of smearing the blood of a classmate on herself to stay safe. where does this stand in terms of potentially bipartisan movement on some of the issues that might help to end some of these school shootings? for example, raising the age to 21 and extending the waiting period. this tragedy is nothing short of heart breaking. hearing that girl speak reminds me of how broken-hearted i was to get that news and am every time i receive word of that.
