and then she goes on and makes her political point. everybody knows how to do that now, at the debates and town halls. that is so true. like you and me, greg. i believe, too, joann, i don t think there was anything really new that he s trying to push. he s just being more emotional about previous things, like background checks. i don t know if this is new, but he says he does want to make sure that there are more background checks staffers, more people doing background checks. which i m okay with. gun sales are up. you need more background checks. if they can happen in a more timely manner and make them more efficient, i m all for that. and jobs, great. but he s doing this, like you said, in climate change, because it appeals to emotions more than terror or national security i think does unfortunately. i think we re all very concerned about it. where most of the country is more tied to what the media shows, which is, you know, these awful shootings that happen.
dozen or 14 here but he often points out that gun violence takes many, many more people. so i think part of what he s trying to do is to deliberately not hype the threat not scare people and point out he has it under control. he s been burned before on days when he said isis has been contained, later that day and week there s been a terror attack so now he but john, to push back, he doesn t think he s been burned. he thinks cable news goes nuts and massively exaggerates this phenomenon and doesn t keep in mind that since 9/11, 45 people have been killed by islamic terrorist organizations. in that same period, 150,000 people have been killed by guns. his argument was i don t like cable news. i don t like the way you peddle this stuff and exaggerate it. he s not just operating in
at them. and it just it turned into a conflict. police then responded and different parts of the city just started to taek off just like this. we saw everywhere that police went, as soon as they left, the rioters and the looters would move in and start ripping apart buildings, stealing everything that they could. at one point, we saw police cars were on fire for over an hour. fire department wasn t able to respond because of the danger. there was a cvs being looted for over an hour or two. when and then it was set on fire. when firefighters finally got to that cvs, rioters were throwing rocks at them. police had to move in to push looks like we ve lost miguel s connection there in baltimore. he has been covering this story since it began early today. he s been following the
time. it doesn t appear as though the opposition had much backing. the question is after this killing, is any of that going to change. of course there are people who believe, many people who believe the killing of boris nemtsov was politically motivated. we know the investigation is ongoing. a vehicle has been discovered. many are going to wait to see what the investigation brings and see what happens moving forward. this demonstration, this march of mournings one that is going to be very very important for the country and is something all of russia is looking for today. george? to push forward on that the other day, we heard from a woman who supports president putin, but was shot and supports people as they come together to remember mr. nemtsov. do you get the sense this is something that really only focuses on the opposition groups or is it broader, do people around the country look at this in mourning?
make it easy to get abortion, so the president is going to, by executive order, change that. liberals have to be careful about what they embrace when and what this president does. except for the fact that president bush, 43, had 43 700 signing statements. that s lot of ways that he wants to interpret the law his way. and you know, ellen, white house senior advisor is saying he s predicting that the president s executive actions on issues like immigration, issues like cuba, will stand no matter who is the president who wins the presidential election. i remember that tony snow said to me before he died that he was still at the white house to push president bush s immigration bill. that s what he wanted to do and he couldn t get it through a republican congress. so i think it s not just president obama that s stuck. and for a president who had his entire party running away from him, it s very bold
