her quick thinking should be commended. but the fact that she had to even do it should be condemned. nearly three weeks since a child was forced to confront pure evil, we re getting a glimpse of the horror she witnessed from inside that courtroom inside that classroom. shot my teacher and told my teacher, shot her in the head. and then he shot some of my classmates and the white board. when i went to the backpacks, he shot my friend that was next to me. and i thought he was going to come back to the room so, i grabbed the blood and i put it all over me. if that had been fiction, parents would not let a child her age read it. had it been a movie, it would be almost a decade before the rating system would allow someone her age to watch it. but it s not fiction. and it wasn t a movie. and i bet it will replay in her mind for the rest of her beautiful life. and it s no fault of her own or any of those children or teachers whose lives were stolen or the children of robb elem

Senate. There havent been debates in committees. Im not saying we arent doing important work but there are 30,000 people dying every day on the streets of this country. And those that they leave behind, their moms and their dads and their Little Sisters and brothers dont get the total indifference that we portray. And i know that were not indifferent. I know in talking to my republican colleagues that they feel just as deeply about the loss in orlando, about the loss in new haven or chicago or newark as we do.

To demand the shutdown of the government, basically. But when chris murphy held the floor in the senate last night for 15 hours, he not only held the floor for that truly remarkable length of time, he also did something that is basically unheard of in the modern history of filibusters and even long speeches in the United States senate. Which is that at the end of his 15 hours, last night at 2 00 in the morning, senator chris murphy of connecticut, he won. By virtue of that filibuster, he actually got what he was asking for. I mean, overall, he was there to protest gun violence in this country r. Test. In the specific what he was asking for were senate votes on two things. Senate vote on blocking people on the terrorist watch list from being able to buy guns. A senate vote on closing that loophole for background chen checks. That that loophole that says you can avoid a background check if you buy a gun online or at a gun show. Thats what he was asking for in speck, votes on those two th
