a lot more interest in personal protection. as sense if there's been a couple of national tragedies, there's also been a lot more interest um with the possibility of legislation and people concerned that they're not going to be able to get access to things that they used to be able to have access to the organ legislatures, considering for really bad bills, they would take away people's right to carry guns in various places, including one of them would limit your ability to carry in a school. if the janitor, it's sandy hook, elementary, had carried a pistol and he heard the shooting down the hallway and people screaming and then saw a young man not in a police uniform running at him with an a r 15 and had shouted to the guys, stop and then pulled his pistol out and shot adam lanza would that have been a good thing or a bad thing. the folks like jenny burdick and those, you know, those nitwits, why would they think it would be a bad thing for people, legitimate law binding people to carry a pistol on us? a lot of room. so rally started noon, i'll be saying a few words and then introducing other legislators who are coming with you heard anything at the with about counter protest we expect to counter protest. do you guys have like little sleeves with for going down to salem because seats fires? well, they around and we're going to go show them that they're not going to get away with the safety of our, of our family, of our children. if they're a, we're more than a 1000 when they're more than 90 pounds, with our citizens, the fight against the british would have taken your step. there wouldn't be a united states today. you are not to be already, you know, so thank you all for coming. you guys are going to make a difference. you really are. and 2nd amendment was rated. you keep united states government in check to support government god to help out. because i think that people should be able to. hi. kristen, by the people should be able to target truth only what they but they do not need a fair amount with what you saying. it's okay. i know, you know, shout me down. so you're not, you're not if you want us to respect your opinion, but you won't respect ours. these pieces of legislation provide common sense gun control. you got a massacres, the children in time anti guns, and then we would all of our teachers knew to have a lot less mass occurring dog, a game in the hands of a good, a bad person, a bmw. what we're going to do is we're going to do a series of panels, you know, encourage all the governors you talk to to come 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, if you have years of experience, your news too, i kind of intimidation. you are about the here to so very angry voicemail from someone out there. oh, you have more guns and you can count. well, never give them up. you received me and i think we're good press one to favor 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 at video surveillance. joining me loud, oregon state senator jenny bird. dick, you cancelled the town hall meeting and in order to do i did at night 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 said 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. is that all right? you are good. oh, 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 portland area. people had confronted her in 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's a public figure. people understand that public figures don't really have privacy. i think jenny berdigs edge shepherd's, come into her. i think if she's scared to step down, she should just get over it and move on and quit her job. nobody lecture i'm not bitter at all by the way. i can show you this, this one with my for your, for such as play out on my stuff. it's the heritage, 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 gun 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 can safety a literally to sit up there and said hey, this is who i am. my mom was count town center and silence room me 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 it. 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 our communities a 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 a background checks for all gun sales. these bills will do nothing but target law abiding citizens. they're not going to 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 hands of a single criminal or madman. if more people had been killed at 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. my. this 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 past the laws that we all live by. thank you very much. ah, ah colorado, he came on the test bed for medical and then later recreational marijuana and it started with some things so innocent. i was wanting to socialize. everybody does it? so i cannot and then it just keeps going and going and going. i'm just going to do it was yeah, and that it's oh i'm just going to try this. one said never do it again because they want my former customers wanna be right on inside. okay. and you surround yourself with people who are encouraging you to do it and not to stop. it felt like my life was over, jumped office about the balcony and died. he knew he just couldn't stop. ah, ah, one of the major fights, chance to merge with president bush junior, was in 2008 this so called bucharest, something at that stage. the united states actually wanted for georgia and ukraine to get them a nato membership to start the so called membership action class. and it was germany that stop that and then said no, no, we don't want to do that because these countries will not add to the stability of tomato, which is one of the prerequisites in the name of treaty. and our next pann orfis come forward. none of these bells 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 inaction. i'm here today in hopes, roving a dialogue and gun safety. please don't make the same assembled. i did believe 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 didn't matter where you were from didn't matter. people do anything to help the people. that's never happened since this terrible tragedy and it didn't happen. and i knew when it didn't happen. i mean, if you slaughtered children the way they were slaughtered and you slaughters 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. there my friend, this thing will never come together. me, i me ah, there are now 6 state associations and 262 individual sheriffs 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 passed 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 a share for grant county. i to a publicly state that i refused 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. our country right now that 4050 years ago, it was unthinkable about people the mass casualties in 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, well, 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 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 to protect the people and 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 a 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, whatever you wanna call it, is a very good example of that. killed that blanco's. 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, then 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 with 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 i 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 becomes your tragedy. we had to convince the senate to come together and past 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 though she is in desperate pain herself, really admire her that you 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 any kind of loss in my family, knock on wood for people or, and depending on me and my colleagues to keep them safe and to have reasonable gun laws so that this kind of thing. what happened again and i need to find a kleenex m i tell you with a few months ago, a threat this 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 from there, all right, come together to write a common sense. 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 outside of the tents, 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 kinds 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 knew i was present 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. i 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 guns versus 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, they can hide from the issue. i checked. seems like a no brainer. i don't know. i already been having a problem. yeah, i mean we were disappointed that there weren't like stronger bellow enable. so the fact that these really, honestly they're really weak bills can't even get past that they can't get past me. ah was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 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 went to florida is biggest industries, and best kept secrets is fostering and 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 aqua for my. there's the chronic, i don't want to hear that word polls name, but that's what it is. in 2013 my all our family dog, my brother, who was 21 years old, myself and my father were all diane, rob, problem with the whole and the good player. right? yeah, yeah. maybe they'll actually learn that part is more important than with 0 one thing i don't call commotion b as really does is boys with those. you can get nobody that you when you can use because did it give you a wash? the, with a deal video could you let some of you know that you could give me a show was begin on your voice message and i still need the hi tim enough to the 0 like figure the couple is they did was a glitch of illusion. but, but i see that i know what the idea nash to we were explainable. i was sort of william kinetic in his music glitches of blooming am. looking to ga. gov with little give the she is a business law. that was cool. cool. that'll get your idea a 1000 gosh, go on with the bundle. if you need more master marcia novelty aqua. but i looked on my bill, which i am with blake. it's a butch. give me. hi, tim for thanks. dear darrel, this newton woodman is as long as the tombstone we're here, machine not see what the key and national glove by now is a natural with some of your headlines are not international european nations recording daily cove numbers at the all mark on strain takes hold while street protests carry on against hart and you restriction, also in the stories that shape the weaker one, artie international. you must give us the guarantee it is up to you and you must do it immediately. vladimir putin demand nato give assurances for not move the military base is any closer to russia.
