Didnt it . For a lot of peeople, that horrible shooting happened during the day and some people werent aware of it because they were at work. There were performances by mary j. Blige, jay z. Cy hoi hope it brought comfor to people. Seems to be happening weekly. Mass shooting is four or more people. Weve had so many . Well, they go through so many of these things. I think the horrible thing about it is a lot of people have almost become numb to it. After sandy hook, i remember everyone said, this is going to change everything. I remember feeling it so deep down that that particular shooting at the Elementary School was going to change everything, and then you see it happening again and again. Yesterdays shooting, this sounds this is unbelievable. Its the sixth mass shooting in the u. S. This week. This week. The deadliest mass shooting in the u. S. Since sandy hook and that was three years ago. One of the most powerful things that happened on the today show, today, they ran an open and in it they just used some of the various openings of the today shows over the past several months and it shows how many of these stories weve been covering. Take a look. Massacre, nine People Killed when a man walked into an prayer meeting in a charlton, South Carolina church. Terror in tennessee. Authorities searching for a motive in the rampage that ended with four marines dead. A 58yearold man opens fire in a crowded Movie Theater in louisiana, killing two people, wounding nine others. In memory and in grief. The shocking murders of two colleagues during a live broadcast. Face of a killer, the gunman who killed nine people in an oregon college. Carnage in colorado. A man behind bars after a deadly shootout at a planned parenthood clinic. You get chills watching that. It just seems since it seems to be so prevalent now, we somehow have to come to some kind of compromise in our world today. Im a total constitutionalist. I think our constitution is one of the greatest documents in history. Its just a brilliant piece of legislation for governing the affairs of men and women. Im a big believer in the second amendment. But i want guns only in the hands right to bear arms only for those people who are people of peace. And weve got to find a way to keep those kinds, like ak47s, that are only designed for mass murder, mass carnage. You dont go out to shoot a deer with that. To shoot the ducks. Right. You dont really defend yourself with Something Like that, right. Cant imagine that you can be on a watch list and not allowed to board a plane but you can go in and buy a gun. I think there has to be something. You always hope this is the thing that makes people that lines people on both sides of this controversy. Will come together and do something at least. You said these two people that were killed in the shootout would have been able to buy one anyway even with background checks and even with what was the other thing . I didnt say that, someone else must have told you that. Yeah, and no prior crime, no mental record. You also have to think about for those too, when you think about the facts are still coming together but take their young baby, their 6monthold, leave it with a motherinl motherinlaw, and leave that baby, knowing either theyre going to be in prison or dead when its over at the end of the day. It was one of those things, you walk in, you shake your head and you say not again. Hodas right, we dont know all the facts and we want to be very careful but i did just hear something that was upsetting as well, that one of the neighbors came on and said shed been watching activity there in the night for quite a period of time. Theres going to be some and the woman was afraid to say anything because she didnt want to be accused of profiling. So thats also part of our problem. Remember the whole saying around here, if you see something, say something. I dont want to put any burden on that person, but what if that person had called and theyd gotten a warrant and gone in and seen well, you just think if you have bombs and guns and flak jackets and, you know all that, yeah. This wasnt something where it happened in a split second. I dont think any peaceloving person keeps that stuff at home. No, you got that right. All righty. Can we move on. We have to. Somebody that is putting good things into the world. This is 20yearold gabby caper from maine. She went to good will, which is an awesome organization. She went to dollar deal monday. She bought five coats for five bucks. She took the coats and said what am i going to do with these . She taped them around five light posts in maine. With a note that said, im not lost, please take me if you need me. She noticed a man taking one of the coats off. Theyre for people who are outside and cold. Its getting colder all the time now. Think if everyone of us took the 5 we would spend on a latte or something and went into good will or Salvation Army or whatever it is in your area and did that. Theres a homeless guy who sits near my apartment now. You know how theres complaining in new york because they see more and more hopeless. I saw him sitting there and a little boy was around a couple of days after thanksgiving. He had a piene in his hand. He said, dont see him. There he is, hes right over there. The little boy walked up. Because he didnt know where to give so even though theres a homeless problem, all i was seeing was this is teaching young kids to be compassionate. Sounds weird, but when i watched that kid walk up with that pie to that man i thought he was looking all over for him. Did he move, mom, i want to make sure i give him this.

One of many pieces in my my tlife. Atch. So when my asthma symptoms kept coming back on my longterm control medicine, i talked to my doctor and found a missing piece in my asthma treatment. Oncedaily breo prevents asthma symptoms. Breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Breo wont replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Breo opens up airways to help improve breathing for a full 24 hours. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. Breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Do not take breo more than prescribed. See your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. Ask your doctor if 24hour breo could be a missing piece for you.
