like little sleeves with for going to and a salem because 6 fires? well, they a rally and we're going to go show them that they're not going to get away with stacy of our, of our family, of our children. if they're top, i think the maximum is only meaningful. we have more than a 1000 people with our students in the fatherhood british would have taken your stats wouldn't here. united states today or you know, so thank you all for coming. you guys are going to make a difference. you really are. the 2nd amendment was created to keep the united states government in track with government got to talk about because i think that people should be able to help it. i think people should be able to target, shoot only what they, but they do not need a fair amount with what you say is okay. i know, you know, shut me down so you're not, you're not reasonable if you want us to respect your opinion, but you all respect ours, these pieces of legislation provide common sense gun control guy, a guy, masters the children lines. i'm anti guns that have that are going to have no, and then we would all of our teachers, we would have a lot less mass occurring done. you're more like a guy in the hands of his it's not a bad today. got a bad person, you know, is a math. mm . what we're gonna do is we're gonna do a series of panels. you know, encourage all the gun on a she talked to, to calm what, when the time comes i, i'm finding those people are for each of these people have never stood up to the opposite show you, you have years of experience. you're going to use try kind of intimidation. you're about the here, just a very angry voice mail from someone out there. ah, you have more guns and you can count. i'll never get them up. you received me back and i think we're good wine, keith adolf hitler and stalin would be so proud of you. you guys are pathetic. you are a waste of the oxygen i breathe. it's just too bad that you, people were a star from the nipple, or maybe you guys would have all your brain cells. lynching is an extra judicial execution carried out by a mob, often by hanging, but also by burning at the stake and signs. in oregon, pro gun ad with kids are intimidating law may goes with threatening e mails and video surveillance. joining me loud oregon state senator jenny bird, dick, you cancelled the town hall meeting. and in order to do i did, and i, when i cancelled the town hall meeting, i didn't want to say anything inflammatory. so i just said this standard scheduling conflict. well, they showed up at my house and they stayed. they stayed in front of my house for 2 and a half hours taping. everything i did and then they put it on the web. and their point was that i didn't in fact have a scheduling conflict. but they ran my address and they ran very threatening comments about it. does that all right, you are good. i didn't know any of that was going on. my goodness. yeah. watching you take out your direct. it was really creepy. i'm not happy about them coming into the camp of my team and i provided physical security for senator bertie, probably 3 or 4 occasions in the portal area. people had confronted her, and one case she was walking to her car and somebody jumped out of the brush. certainly we really took this quite seriously. when congresswoman gifford was shot in tucson, arizona. you know, how do you know something like that's gonna happen? so we believed at that point that she had a legitimate right to be concerned about her welfare. i me she is a public figure. people understand that public figures don't really have privacy. i think chamber dick some bitch shepherds come into her having issues that scares isn't a step down. she should just get over it and move on and quit her job. nobody electric i'm not bitter at all. by the way. i can show you this. this one with my, for your, for such as myself, it's the heritage that they have a lot of families from michelle mm . on a group plan, a marathon public hearing on for bills. they include a ban on guns in schools and criminal background checks for private con sales. so we should be there by. so this is telling me 730 i mean, hopefully this will be a good forum and people will be open to everyone's message on all sides of the issue. none of us can replace steve, but we can try to make things better. i back in january, my friend invited me to this community, meeting about safety. a literally to sit up there and said hey, this is why i'm my mom was counter town center and silent room by just standing up and saying that i made a real for everyone. i realize that that moment i do have a voice. maybe i can make an, ah, i want people to remember. i don't want people to forget that people were murdered and, and how they were murdered. and that we need to change the cycle of violence, excuse me, going on in our communities. mm. day. with politicians back down just because they don't want to take the harassment and that is what it results in no change. and i just refused to be intimidated because i can't in good conscience after new town back down. mm ah, this issue is very simple to members of the public that somehow when you get into the charge, the environment in this building, it becomes more difficult. good morning everyone. thank you for being here. i'm going ahead and open up the senate committee on judiciary. this morning we have 4 bills that are before us, that we're going to be taking public testimony. each of these bills have amendments that will change the actual purpose of the bills. in conducting today's hearing, i ask that everyone be respectful to the speakers and their views, even though you may disagree with those positions. i think it's very important that we have this hearing debate to decide on what if anything it will be moving forward . senate bill $700.00 would finish closing the loophole to require background checks for all gun sales. his bills will do nothing but target law abiding citizens . they're not gonna affect the criminals. they don't solve any of the problems that we've had. the fact that this state continues to allow the private sale of guns without background checks is reckless here, responsible and downright dangerous. none of these bills will keep the guns out of the hands of a single criminal or madman. if more people had been killed, a clackamas town center, we would have him work comprehensive law. we're legislating a reaction to a tragedy that won't prevent it is true. criminals will always get guns, but let's make it harder for them for women and those with disabilities. guns are the great equalizer senate bill. $347.00 would allow school districts rather than one advocacy group or another to decide what really is a safe school. there is no place in our schools, but guns, gun free zones, mileage will be advertised as potential killing zones. students were almost unanimous in their opinion, that their sense of security would not be announced with additional weapons on site . you need somebody at the school to stop that person, the laws we have and assistance we have in place do not work. dana ray can spread their money around it and their influence. but it's only you folks, the legislators that can write and pass the laws that we all live by. thank you very much with i jeremy williams, a city delegated, and as you want to talk to, we stand together. we'll continue to stand together against russia, 80 in germany. repeat some of the areas that we doubtless made, say no to cds, us chunky dawson. it's about their ability to influence other nations, french, u. k. and even latin america and other countries into just them maybe know where to high from walk cycle alone with members of your household. so please, please, please, please we're going to continue to fight. don't just need to to do russia must not be allowed in germany or the out through common leave it so so on. so being out in office the 5 and the yes actually ended outside the in office mrs. guns until sunday. oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed? what will make you feel safer? isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being led? to direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend, who join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. technology as that is big industry and there's lot of opportunities for hackers lives, not him. but he didn't bring the law in that country. you're dealing with. why rushed him that the major cybersecurity challenge is the sovereignty of laws that cyberspace has no borders. lucille warranty we ended up with, for example, the national health service in the u. k. that a chess was completely wiped out from a ransomware attack. if you were coming in to a clinic because you had a test or you had an operation, they can't find your records. they had to go back to pen and paper with and our next penalties come forward. none of these bills would have stopped the shooter that killed my mother at clark miss town center. still, it is an important action for this legislature to demonstrate that they are serious about making our communities safer. reducing gun violence is a complicated issue, but that is not an excuse for an action. i'm here today and host roving a dialogue and gun safety. please don't make the same assumption guided believing that this couldn't happen to me. it could easily have been your wife, your husband, your daughter, or your son. you remember katrina. you remember 911. what happened? overnight? nothing mattered. politics did matter where you were from didn't matter. people do anything to help the people. that's never happened since this terrible tragedy connecticut. it didn't happen. and i knew when it didn't happen. i mean, if you slot or children the way they were slaughtered, and you slaughter 6 students, 6 teachers who were trying to defend their bodies and defend them the way they were slaughter. and that can bring us together instantly. that my friend, this thing will never come together. me the ah, there are now 6 state associations and 262 individual sheriffs who are on record opposing any new gun control legislation this week. the sheriffs of 5 oregon county sent out letters that they would not support laws pass by congress, that trump the liberties of citizens in addressed to vice president joe biden. i will not tolerate, nor will i permit any federal incursion within the exterior boundaries of grant county, oregon, or any type of gun control legislation, aimed at disarming law abiding citizens is a goal or objective share for grant county. i to publicly state that i refuse to participate or stand idly by while people i represent are made into criminals duty or unconstitutional actions. this is my basic police class. back in the late eighty's, when i went to the police academy, things are happening in our country right now. that 4050 years ago, it was unthinkable about people, the mass casualties and the killings in the bombings. and i don't like it either, but i think the people need to take responsibility into their own hands and be prepared. i heard one talk show one time they were talking about what our government has nukes. do you propose that you have nukes? and my thought was, if they're gonna use a nuke against me, i would like to have a new to level the playing field. you know it's, it's a little unrealistic. but let's, let's be realistic that if our government or anybody else is going to use a tank against us, it would be nice to know that i have the same ability of protect the people who have elected me in the office. that i could step to that same level. i don't anticipate ever wanting or having to have a tank or use for one. but if somebody was to use one against me, it would be in our, in our best interest to be able to defend ourselves. and that's what 2nd amendments all about me . i'm not in the camp of anti government, but i think less government intervention into our lives would be a good thing. and i think there's a big divide there between what we call western oregon or the valley. the portland area and rural oregon a lot of what we get from the politicians is a need your reaction. i don't have a tremendous amount of ease in how they do things. and i think the, the gun control wherever you want to call it is a very good example of that killed that blanco's me. i don't know the solutions to lessen the chance of a sandy hood type incident is going to come from gun control. and it's much deeper than that. do i know what the answer is? no, because there's, i think it's a very complicated, very complex problem. guns we're part of it. we have to decide what we're willing to accept on both sides of the fence. you know, are we willing to accept what happened? you know, in these different instances? if not than what are we willing to accept, you know, laws and rules to lessen the potential that happening again. my name is frances wheeler. my husband davis was me. we live in sandy hook, connecticut. david and i have 2 sons. our older son, nate, soon to be 10 years old, is a 4th grader at sandy hook elementary school. our younger son, ben h 6, was murdered in his 1st grade classroom on december 14th, exactly 4 months ago this weekend. i've heard people say that the tidal wave of anguish, our country felt on 1214 has receded, but not for us to us. it feels as if it happened just yesterday. please help us do something before our tragedy because your tragedy. we had to convince the senate to come together and pass common sense gun responsibility reforms that will make our communities safer and prevent more tragedies like the one we never thought. what happened to us hope to see the moment when real change begins. i talk about making a difference when do you mind watching that pain? a pain and how she was able to rise above her own painter trying to keep others from having to experience pain more than 3000 people died since sandy hook, every single one of them had families who are experiencing that pain. and she's trying to do something about it and even know she's in desperate pain herself. really admire her as an into feel, watching her standard like that so publicly. well, it certainly certainly drives me. you know, i, i'm a legislator and i haven't had kind of a loss in my family knock on wood. the people are and depending on me and my colleagues to keep them safe and to have reasonable gun laws. so that is kind of thing. what happened again and i need to find a kleenex m i tell you with a few months ago, a threat country took up because i think more people a few minutes ago, a minority in the united states senate decided it wasn't worth it. we had a democrat and they were both owners with a great when they are come together to write a common sense of compromise on background checks. in fact, even the and already used to support expanded background checks. but instead of supporting this compromise, the gun lobby and its allies wilfully lied about the bill. those lines are said, an intense minority of gun owners and that in turn intimidated a lot of centers. after i saw the boat didn't pass, i just was absolutely crushed . and thought that all the senators, the entire senate should be ashamed of itself. if those kind of weapons were less available or harder to get. we wouldn't have a lot of the shootings and we certainly wouldn't have the number of deaths. i'm convinced that me who you know i am, i was presented sky and he gave me an update on what's going on. yeah. so basically what this move means is the senate president has actually taken the bills and referred them to the rules committee without sending him to the floor 1st because he thinks that they won't pass. right. he doesn't think they have the votes are disagree. we're talking about people who are going to be running for reelection. so, you know, it's one thing for the republicans because the republicans know that the president does not like to bring against vision. cars bring bills to the floor without the votes to pass. so naturally they're going to say, we're not going to vote for it, hoping to keep it off the floor altogether. okay? because then if they don't have to vote hide from the issue. i checked. seems like a no brainer to me. i don't know why we're even like having to yeah, i mean we were disappointed, but there weren't like stronger bel cable. so the fact that these really, honestly they're really weak bells can't even get past me. ah i ah oil and gas manufacturing, electricity, telecom transportation, all of them now have a your t type of infrastructure connected to the internet for clarity, realizing there's disruptive potential that those countries kind of ignore it because it threatens national security issue. but if we take the nato e u countries, virtually all of them subscribed to certain doctrines and maintains selling but tell us forces. they are a cyber army on behalf of a country that's their job. so should we describe our time? what is the zeitgeist, as they say? do we have a sense of direction and purpose? we also hear a lot about the desire to return to normal. what does that mean? now, are we actually living in the new normal route? i was diagnosed with cancer in 2000 lives when the doctors told me the cancer was incurable. i knew i had to make a change. so i decided to travel to one of the most toxic places in america. florida. one of florida is biggest industries and best kept secrets is phosphate mine in the biggest layer is $85000000000.00 industry. is mosaic, and i, there are reports of millions of gallons of contaminated water now flowing into the florida aquifer name from there's a chronic. oh i don't love to hear that word towards me, but that's what it is. i'm in 2013. my all our family dog, my brother, who was 21 years old, myself and my father were all diane rob problem did. they brought a whole right? yeah. and they can play. right. yeah. yeah. maybe they'll actually learn more help is more important than a gas prices smash all time records in europe with the you, again pointing the finger of blame and russia despite moscow fulfilling its supply contract. it's like doping, a top sports magazine, questions, transgender athletes. participation of women support claiming that have an unfair advantage over other competitive and around rages within the us democratic party off to one of its own sentences effectively torpedoes, joe by.
