- We spoke to Mark Barden, who's seven year old son Daniel was one of the 26 victims killed in a shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT in 2012. Barden, one of co-founders and CEO of the Sandy Hook Promise Action Fund, tells us what it was like hearing the news of the tragic school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX on May 24th, 2022. He also explains what the Sandy Hook Promise has been able to accomplish in the past 10 years, and what other measures he thinks need to be done to reduce gun violence in America.

That beautiful little boy. He should still be here. We don’t want to take your guns. We just want our kids to be able to go to school without being massacred.
something like this at an elementary has only happened TWICE in TEN years lol. most gun viiolence against kids is done with PISTOLS in inner cities not ar15's
They admit to wanting to take arms here & in the house event the other day.
The places that protect kids have ZERO massacres.
And there is a shocking number of guns circulating in this country among civilians. I think we do need to say: It's crazy and it's unnecessary. There are far too many guns, there is no need for civilians to be armed with assault weapons.
@ShoesOMGShoes **senators, governors
Exactly
Beautiful little boy Daniel is, he became an angel too soon! So sorry for such a devastating loss, may you find strength and support for the burden your family has to carry.
This man has saved so many lives. I am sure Daniel is so proud. I am just so sorry that this man even has to do this work, and that Little Daniel was killed far too soon.
...bullshit
I’m so sorry for every parent who’s lost a child from all of these school shootings from Columbine to Robb. So here’s a poem that I wrote that will hopefully acknowledge them.
“Even though you went,”
“A moment that just was too soon,”
“We’ll remember all the time we spent,”
“Whenever we gaze upon the moon,”
“We’ll cherish the thoughts that you gave,”
“Even though you all we couldn’t save,”
“We will always mourn you from above,”
“With thoughts and tears of those you loved,”
“So let your new wings,”
“Carry you high to the sky,”
“So that the angels sing,”
“And take you where nothing can die.”
Everyone dies eventually. But even though you’ve left too soon, we as a nation will never forget you, all of you who died in these tragic incidents.
This poem is beautiful. May God bless you for this.
@@shawnhayes6938 Thank you. For my entire life, I just assumed death was just an inconvenience ever since some of my relatives died. But in 2015, I, unfortunately, also was a victim of a school shooting that never made the news as I just didn't want the parents of the three victims we had to turn on the TV, something their kids probably did, and listen to the constant reminders of their children's deaths. As I heard, "Children are supposed to bury their parents. Not the other way around." Besides, I also want to let these parents and survivors know that the world is there with them. That they aren't alone without their friends that tragically lost their lives suddenly.
In tears reading this very beautiful poem. 😥
This was so beautiful, thank you for sharing this.
Thats a great poem that really helped.
I can't believe it has been 10 years. For them it must feel like yesterday and years ago, all at the same time. 😔😢💔
The pain doesn't get better
I pray that the families that have to re-live this kind of nightmare and the family of Daniel will continue finding strength through prayers from many of us that will never forget these precious children✝️💜
yep prayers have solved so many of our problems
His kid is still alive,....in fact,....all of them are. Barden is owned by Homeland Security for life. He, and all those 'parents', made a deal with the devil.
@@uvaldesch.shootingwasanact2002 Shut your filthy mouth Harry Strack The GoAnimator! I hope that you go to jail for allowing Dora's parents, cousins, classmates, teacher, and principal to abuse Dora like that!
Daniel would have been 16 and driving a car. Forever a first grader 😢
He still is,........nobody dies in a school that was closed four years earlier, was only being used for stroage, and was scheduled to be torn down, anyway.
@@uvaldesch.shootingwasanact2002 psycho
@@uvaldesch.shootingwasanact2002 *SHUT UP HARRY STRACK THE GOANIMATOR! CHILD ABUSE IS NOT FUNNY! I'M ON DORA'S SIDE ON THIS ONE!!!*
I’m surprised this is not getting more thumbs ups. Glad his family and others are trying so hard to make us safer. And really sorry for his loss, a very sweet little boy, that is a nightmare but he is turning into good things for the rest of us and that is a gift to all of us in his sweet little boy’s name.
You shouldn't be surprised. Some people want to protect kids while others want to violate human civil rights.
The only reason these heavily guarded dems refuse to allow people to protect kids is because they want more tragedies to happen so they can stand on their warm bodies as a soapbox to push for further violating our human civil rights.
@@vashmatrix5769 isn’t that what you are doing by making this comment? How phony!!
@@starlessmystery6429 Violating vs defending is the distinction, just like the legislation. After dems did that they forced defense. If anything we should #GuardEverySchool but dems only want that for them & Ukraine.
The news cycles as well as viewing of CZcams videos passes. Uvalde is already moving off the news because it is getting less clicks. One thing I noticed: Many people of the networks were overwhelmed by what they saw, learned, and felt.
It’s easier for everyone to accept this as a normal occurrence oppose to making them for responsible for owning a deadly weapon.
Thank you Mark for sharing, thank you Katie for another thoughtful interview
This guy is the unsung hero of our modern day. Everyone focuses on the shootings that happen, but never the ones that were prevented (understandably so). The world will unfortunately never appreciate how much he has done for us.
I live in the third world and not even here this sht happens, I'm not sure what's going on in the US, dunno if anyone's studying it? cause it's strange AF. The fact that you guys let all those kids be slaughtered 10 years ago and so lil (to nothing) has changed should be embarrassing. Also I find it incoherent (to say the least in my limited broken English) that the same people trying to ban abortion laws are the same people asking to protect that fckng amendment for your precious guns.. Make up your mind, maybe?Life inside the mother's belly is precious but outside of it means nothing? Pls make it make sense. Americans are so so so so so weird. NOT ALL, I know that and that not all hope is lost but still...
The USA was founded on the concept of separation of church and state, but over the years conservative Christian religious groups have tried to enforce their religious beliefs over us all. They changed our money to read "In God we trust" and they put the phrase "under God" in our pledge of allegiance. Many of the population, including even our poor excuses for politicians, think that they need to swear in to public office on a Christian Bible when that has never been the case. Even when joining the military, the pledge they make you say has a line about their Christian God. The push to ban abortion is coming from the ultra religious Christian conservative groups who think abortions are an insult to their God and his plans. They would rather see little 12 year olds who were raped suffer to carry a child that it might kill the girl to give birth rather than allow abortions to take place. (I've met girls who went through this. It breaks my heart to know that children go through this in my country.) Every day for many years I drove past an anti-abortion billboard on my way to work, thinking it was only the opinion of a religious minority and possed no real threat to women's right to choose. My town recently passed laws encouraging people and medical professionals to report women suspected of having abortions. The United States is heading towards a scenario straight out of the Handmaids Tale books, and they're taking inspiration from nazism encouraging us to snoop into people's medical history and report them of what is now deemed a criminal act.
The guns issue is supported by the same Christian conservatives mainly because we only have a two party political system. Conservative Christians tend to be Republicans, and they pretty much only ever vote the party line in elections. Less than half of Americans vote and most aren't even aware of the policies their candidates support, only that the candidate is either Republican or Democratic. Our politicians get a lot of money from the gun industry, so they're in no way incentivized to make any changes to gun laws. Gun enthusiasts don't want changes to gun laws, despite the fact that banning military type rifles would not affect the majority of gun owners who don't own them. They stick to straw man arguments saying the real issue is mental illness (which it partly is) and that we can't punish responsible gun owners for the actions of a few.
@@MexicanTeTe Thank you for such a detailed explanation!! Kinda confirms my suspicions and I can't help to get my blood boiling. Church and state should never ever meet, it makes no sense. Not to mention the fact that you don't need any evidence to 'believe' makes it all the more terrible cause.. how to argue?? How to disagree when they don't need to make any sense of wtv they believe in ahhhh it makes me so mad. There was a 'Karen' in Brazil a couple years ago mentioning by name this 10 yo girl who had be SA by her uncle, ended up pregnant and was authorized to get an abortion. Not only she mentioned her by name but also gave the address of the hospital they had to take her to be able to get an abortion so all those radical ppl were there screaming and trying to barge in... Again atp I wouldn't be surprised if something similar was to happen in the US and that is not good!! That division though, between two political parties... It feels like you're describing Latin America and that's also very bad for you guys, you don't wanna end up like us. Even your supreme court??? You're on your way to hell and can't see it. Not all of you!! Definitely not you, but one too many of you. 45 didn't win the popular vote but how many millions voted for him anyway? It's so concerning, it makes me wonder what you guys study in school! I wish you could study more international history to realize you're heading for some serious trouble there. Sadly for everyone including us, you guys have access to so many nuclear weapons, we're all in trouble if you guys are in trouble. Someone like 45 shouldn't be even the mayor of a city in the first world.
@@fi0rella Yeah. I actually left the USA for Latin America. At least in Latin American Catholic countries they do more to respect women's choice in these matters and the cartels and police are the only armed gunmen I need to avoid. The United States is falling more into the category of a "despotic third world country" every year, despite the fact that most Americans are ignorant of this.
You shouldn't worry too much about the nukes the USA has. Even if a crazy president ordered an attack, it would still have to be approved and carried out by the military. The military has its own fair share of crazy religious fanatics, but they still have to follow regulations and international laws like the Geneva convention. I was in the military while Trump was president and he was saying stupid things like "we're going to bomb civilians overseas" and I went out of my way to ask leadership in a public forum who's going to stop us from committing war crimes? Who's really in charge and going to step up and say "no" when our own president is totally ignorant of international law? My job in the military literally trained me to learn how to politely say no to unlawful orders coming from higher ranking people. I do trust the military to have more common sense than the fools who keep getting elected like Trump, MTG, or Boebert. Military leadership actually have to earn their positions over their entire careers while these grifters only need to spend money and say offensive things loudly to convince morons to vote for them to get to where they are.
The United States is a perfect case study for keeping the population divided politically and so focused on fighting each other that they don't even realize their own inadequacy and shortcomings compared to the rest of the world.
This is still so devastating. Over 10 years later and the world continues to mourn the shooting murder of the 6 brave educators and 20 innocent children who were shot to death by a gunman with an AR15 in the shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14th 2012. 😔
Thank you for all you are doing Mark.
Mark Barden has somehow found strength after the brutal heartbreaking loss of his little boy Daniel to go in in work to prevent more senseless loss of life. An incredible tribute to Daniel & inspiration for the rest of us to do all we can to stop these tragedies from repeating. We are reminded through this interview to work harder on gun reform. Thank you Katie & bless the Barden family. ❤
Violating the 2A doesn't protect kids. People in Japan use knives or matches for example. It's only the schools which protect kids that have ZERO massacres.
@reformed meghead The 2A. "Right to bear "arms" shall not be infringed." Arms means any armament.
@reformed meghead Arms did. Lmao. Do you really think the founders thought arms wouldn't advance...
@reformed meghead exactly how are you implying I didn't?
@@vashmatrix5769 You left out the part where it also says WELL REGULATED. Shooting up children in schools, churches, movie theaters, concerts, supermarkets, night clubs, funerals, hospitals, etc. is not WELL REGULATED. These innocent victims had a right to live & pursue happiness which was infringed upon by the not so well regulated.
American culture is so very sick. It is incredible that this nightmare has only gotten worse. Every day in Columbus, Ohio - another shooting. Last year, we outdid ourselves. And all the Mayor of my town can say is that "this has to stop" - all the while, not enacting policies and dedicating money to the issues and needs of the communities - as if saying this has to stop is a magic pill that will make it true. If those we elect, regardless of party, cannot and will not make change, what are we to do?
Sorry to say - but I think your american government should just remove the 2nd amendment or change it. Its a man made constituition - which means it can be changed - its not carved in stone! I have been following the robb elementary shooting case - i have seen so many comments by americans who are pro gun and insist that the 2nd amendment be kept & refuse to acknowledge that banning future gun sales is a possible solution. But i think the 2nd amendment was for a different era - im sure the forefathers of america would be horrified if they knew in the future that this clause made easy for murderers to buy war guns to massacre innocent civilians. Other countries ban guns ( and buy them back from the public) because they had mass shootings and realised banning guns is part of the solution to reduce mass shootings. America however since 1980s until now today - it seems not only the politicians but many american citizens still refuse to take serious measures to keep their kids safe. The rest of the world looks on and wonders when the next mass murder is going to take place in America. The situation in America is beyond belief and sadness. - an observer from Singapore
what are we to do - not leave. leaving is impossible for many who can't afford to. and leaving solves nothing, it makes the situation even worse for those you leave behind. what are we to do ? REVOLT. it's time for a guillotine revival.
thank you, Katie...please keep up your good work
We hear a lot from the parents of shooting victims, but never about the siblings. I'm glad James was on TV. America needs to see what the murder of a child does to other children.
How absolutely horrible. It honestly invokes anger and I can’t say how much respect I have for parents such as this man
I remember it being my 7th birthday and looking at the news and hearing about these poor kids. Every year i still think about these kids❤️❤️
When they pan to the family next to the Christmas tree, you saw the brother just out of it. Then as the interview goes on and the brother just starts crying... oh jeeze I have tears running down my face. Im so sorry that you guys have to relive it.
😢 Enough is Enough of mass/school shootings!!🇺🇲 In memory of my Stepdad 💙 Teacher and Coach Dave Sanders who was murdered at Columbine High school on April 20, 1999 along with 12 students!!✌️#davesandersstepdaughter
I will donate to the NRA in his honour ;)
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹🌹🌻
@@mt_gox I hope you find peace
@@aizenosaimafidon1119 I got all the peace I need, sista
God Bless your sweet beautiful little boy! I am so sad for all these children and family's dealing with this lose. 🙏🙏❤
These people from schools have had mass shootings have PTSD. Every time another shooting takes place they have to relieve their trauma also with reliving their trauma there is a open window to commit suicide. Not changing laws isn’t an option. How many dead children will it take to get and enforce federal laws on firearms.
why are you talking about the middleman, why not go straight to the source and ban schools?
I knew this would be very difficult for these families, I'm sure the second they heard the breaking news. ❤️
It is difficult watching dems still refuse to protect kids.
@@lightmatrix6867 Well people keep voting for the same ones, that's why nothing changes.
You're a super hero Mark! Love & Light to you and your family! ❤
How hard is it to take a test and be registered for a gun just like our Driver's License??? And stop the ordering/sales of them online--tired of hearing that they are getting them online!!
That's a good idea and a good start hotlines to report unstable individual and get them the help they need and I thank you for your service and I am with you 💓 processing and healing 🙏 hug's and keep going for (Daniel -rip)let him know that he made a change to the world 🌎 through your help and God bless ❤️🙌
That was the voice of sanity speaking.
I remember my 12th grade choir and I drew art and messages to be sent to Sandy Hook. Terrible that as a country we’ve only gone backwards. RIP all of those beautiful innocent lives!
I am shocked how a military style guns are being allowed to sold for regular people?
No military in the world is so irresponsible as to arm their soldiers with civilian semi autos.
@@vashmatrix5769 We use semi-automatics in the US military. They're not very different from what you can buy as a civilian. The M16, which is what most train with at first, is a modified version of the civilian AR-15. Full automatics are used more by those in specialized jobs or when you're deployed in specific combat zones. But when we get trained, it's mostly with semi-automatics (that are nearly identical to AR-15s) and that's the type of guns we have in our armories.
You clearly don't know what you're talking about or choose to make shit up to support your argument in favor of civilians having access to semi-automatics. 😂
@@MexicanTeTe My father, 7 uncles, grandpa, & my mom's husband were all in the military, one was even an armor. I know when & why to use full auto & when & why to use semi. I know all about the differences & similarities. Bolt carrier, chrome lining, etc. They still get select fire while we are unconstitutionally restricted from having them. I didn't make anything up & what I said is true, so quit lying.
@@vashmatrix5769 You don't need access to weapons like that. They're made for combat zones and the USA is not a combat zone. The first semi-automatic weapons weren't even invented until nearly 100 years after the second amendment was enacted. Banning or restricting access to dangerous weapons is not unconstitutional and it doesn't infringe on your second amendment rights-- the men who came up with the second amendment would not even be able to comprehend the level of devastation one person with a semi-automatic could inflict, let alone a full automatic.
If you want to use those types of weapons so badly you should get a life and enlist/commission in the armed forces.
Your first comment was 100% not factual. The military primarily uses semi-automatics. They're the weapon of choice because they're easier to use accurately. If you had actual military experience and not just whatever bs brainwashing you got from your family you wouldn't have made such a dumb statement in the first place. 🙄
@@MexicanTeTe The 2A was written with tyrannical government in mind. Confiscation was what set off the war that founded the country. We constitutionally should have any weapons we want. We had things that would be considered machine guns under law now when we were founded. Look for Steven Crowder muskets & see the 1st one on that. The other top few results are educational too.
After that check out Legally Armed America, the 2nd Amendment and it's history with the Supreme Court. Apparently you don't understand that it's explicitly written for arms & any restriction is a infringement.
I was going to enlist like the rest of my family but an injury prevented it. I don't have to of served in war with my family to support the 2A with them. Supporting them is honoring them.
Lmao. I was factual, you're not. Only a handgun will be semi. No militaries primary rifle, m16, tavor, AK, etc, isn't select fire (full auto). Still a nonpoint as we should have everything they have.
I appreciate you both for many reasons. If only we could have saved Daniel and all the others. If only guns were not taking our freedom every day as peaceful citizens. Meanwhile the gun dependent community is fighting for their freedom to keep their beloved machines. All the info provided in this interview is very helpful and so good to be aware of. Thank you all for your efforts!
Apparently you have been comatose if you think that guns are stealing your freedom.
Can you show me a recent video that Couric has done addressing in the last ( I will make it easy) 4 years on the mass shootings in Chicago, Philadelphia. NYC, California
Where 10 month olds just 2 years ago were getting shot in their strollers among many other children.
Especially Chicago where every single solitary week if you double digit numbers of people who have been shot and single to double digit numbers of fatalities and how many hospitality children. For instance Fourth of July of 20 2071 people were shot that’s Fourth of July weekend, 17 fatalities and I believe eight were under the age of 17. That’s a normal occurrence that’s been going on for years. And by the way none of them are done with the guns, That are bought by a store who legally and lawfully by going through the red tape and filling out forms can sell firearms. Wear when you go to purchase that fire on you have to have a background check and the gun is registered. That’s not the guns that are being used that are killing all these people in Chicago on a daily basis. These are black market does that as of right now we’re being practical because Biden has an open water but have been traffic in Vis cargo from other countries.
As a matter fact people in Chicago well children are the article yesterday from 1992 where her mother was walking her child to school and he got hit by open fire with a gun that was not legally registered that was not me in the United States of America it was a black market. So please do tell me no taking my dogs away from me as a legal binding system because we just love our beloved machines is going to stop those killings in all those cities that I put. That by the way are the majority of the fatalities, that happened by numerous different types of guns. They make up the majority of the killings in the United States of America. So one would have to think after decades of this happening who’s behind it all that it’s still going on the people to get guns on the black market that are crossing our borders via cargo ship or however else they’re getting. Must be somebody pretty high up there in the door and don’t say because nothings been done about it. But let’s just focus when there’s a school shooting because apparently the majority of the people who are always making comments like you do what you don’t care about The shootings that happened every single solitary day for decades now double digits every weekend. That always happened in black community. What am I think that somebody very Highup in our own legal system or political system or three letter agencies or whoever it may be is targeting black communities to stay devastated. Because for the life of me I can’t understand why there’s been no improvement but it’s getting worse. And again it has nothing to do with law-abiding citizens that have their guns registered and were bought from the legal store that sells them to keep them locked up.
So the little condescending heartfelt , passive aggressive remarks , about “keeping our beloved machines” doesn’t hold water.
I love the caring and voices for only school shootings.
Shows how caring people really AREN’T
But definitely show on line shills and so called journalist (shills) pushing an agenda and actually using the deaths of children who are dead because of those behind the agenda, to move it forward.
While all is a deceitful atrocity to the American people.
But greed is Evil.
It definitely looks like having to harbor all the evil , especially in the last 2-3 years , is revealing itself on Couric.
See it in her face.
She really doesn’t look well at all. Actually her face reveals deep stress, deep worry and deep regret and despair. She looks like she’s aged 10 years in a year
@@soulfireonfire6423 I don’t have time to read all this but I do wish you well and I don’t agree with assault rifles and most guns at all. That is how I feel and that is fine with me. Peace!
It’s hard because guns are already a hard truth about American society. The issue would be a lot simpler if the right to bear arms wasn’t literally the second amendment or if guns weren’t already so common. Personally I’m in favor of a system where guns are obtainable, but an extensive background and mental health check are done in order to own one. That and perhaps mandatory training for a certain period of time. I could also see the banning of certain types of guns being helpful. Being too reactionary and banning firearms altogether could cause a lot of problems.
@D. Hornet Jacket I think what you meant was “I DONT CARE HOW MANY CHILDRENS TINY BODIES GET OBLITERATED BY AR15s BECAUSE I MISINTERPRET AN AMENDMENT THAT WAS WRITTEN BY A BUNCH OF MEDIOCRE WHITE MEN OVER 250 YEARS AGO.”
Wouldn’t the gun advocates do a 180 on this and want gun control after they lose people to gun violence themselves?
Bless Mr. Mark, Mrs. Jackie, and their children. Sweet Daniel is flying with the angels ❤️
Yes, he absolutely is.💗 Sweet boy.
What about the rest if us that lived thur something like this check out the santana school shoot in California..I lived thur that and still due daily..im sry for all victims and there family but please don't forget the rest of us please
I really appreciate them mentioning what happened at tops because this uvalde thing kind of overshadowed that because it was babies
Oh I’ve been looking for this… because I just knew families like his would feel that way. They relived it. 💔💔💔💔💔💔
BTW I could listen to you speak all day.
This is so sad
Losing a sibling or child 😥 is very hard
I know that it doesn't just go away it stays with you
God bless you!! I'm so sorry for your devastating lose. You are changing the world!!!
A box of gravel has more intellignce than you.
These things keeps happening. He’s not changing the world.
Why would someone want to buy this type of gun. To do harm. To a leaving thing period.
I am so sorry! I think of the Sandy Hook families every day! Thank you for all you are doing to help with this horrible issue our country has. 🙏🏽❤️
I've donated to the Sandy Hook Promise organization and plan to keep donating. They're doing such a great job fighting for safer schools. If you're reading this, please donate to this organization.
A fool and their money are soon parted,....isn't that right, fool?
I could not Get out Of Bed. 3 Days. I CRIED
Run for Congress, sir.
Rest in peace to these gorgeous angels. We will get justice for you all. We will fight to end gun violence
I dont ever want to imagine the pain they go through. The thought of you know how horrible these small children were murdered! Praying for all these families each day. We need to talk about being kind and mental health and bullying as well! Your children are proud of you!
"I just can't find a practical application in civilized society"
Taking about the power of destruction of an AR15 bullet has on soft tissue such as humans.
I feel the same. It is an useless object that can only overkill. There are better and more comfortable options for self defense.
Every day nightmare
Thank you Mark for telling your story and doing the work you do.
Sandy Hook Promise taught me the warning signs and made me cognizant of the issues that are so present in this country. I'm passionate about this because of people like you sharing stories of kiddos like Daniel.
I do not ignore warning signs ever, I feel brave enough to speak because of your work.
I still think of those families all of the time. I wasn't a mom yet & I just cried for days after Sandy Hook. Praying for all the parents & family members who are reeling from loss due to gun violence.
Are you a mom now?
Sandy hook happened when I was a sophomore in high school. I just want mark to know that in our class that day we took a moment of silence, and as a whole I have grown up with this problem as well
It's time to think what is wrong with our society, because we have the highest number in suicides and missive shuttings. We need to put our citizen necesites first and not try to fix the world. when we are ok the rest is going to be ok, because to think what we did wrong is not to take the pain away, form the parents.
we all have to protest, insist and fight until the leaders of this country have no other option to make changes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we are more in quantity than politicians are!!!!! we yave to fight together, united and being empathetic because these families can be us!!!
I can't believe there are people on this earth who want to murder innocent children. Does anyone else stop and think about how messed up that is? It happens all the time, in different ways, but it is a thing, and I just can't believe it, I can't relate to it, those are people who are too far gone for me to understand.
December..
July's
My heart is with his today
A box of gravel has more intelligence than you. Why don't you ask to see Barden's non-disclosure agreement he was mandated to sign for his participation in a scheduled DHS CAPSTONE exercise conducted at an abandoned elementary school that had been closed for four years since 2008, was being used for storage, and was scheduled to be demolished, anyway?
GOD BLESS. YES.
San DeHoaks
Sandy Hook Promise is doing such important work. Grateful. Thank you, Mark and others. You're always in my heart.
RIP may thay rest in peace
THIS MAN SPEAK WITH SUCH GRACE HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE SAYING , HE ANSWERED THE QUESTIONS FASTER THEN THEY ASKED THEM . GOD BLESS EVERY LOST SOUL , MY SONS NAME IS DANIEL AND I TAKE PRIDE IN IT FOR SO MANY REASON BUT IT IS ALSO A TRIBUTE. DANIELS FATHER IS EVERYTHING I WANT TO EMBODY AS A PERSON & PARENT . RIP LITTLE BABY DANIEL ❤️
You can't go nowhere any more Lena Jellico Tennessee God bless all of you that lost some one 💗
If youve been considering going off-grid...you've been given SO MANY reasons to make that shift. Do it.
How about something where people can bring guns in and turn them in without getting in trouble, I know it works in California a lot of people turn them in
God bless you Sr and your beautiful family!! 🙏❤️🙏 Hope we change the law ... RIP
Matty McConafraud Duper delight
It’s a horrible and one can’t forget I couldn’t believe it because about the grocery. Store I just couldn’t believe it. And like the mom said do something because it will happen again
He Would Be High School
He described a nuclear weapon
As for Texas,we can thank the NRA,FrmPres Bush and GovAbbott for deregulations in our state plus any Federal bills laws etc that have NOT been voted on or reformed across our country. Right now Uvalde to Austin is covering their asses over what the hell happened.The families of Uvalde deserve better. I hope they ALL get together and sue everyone that screwed this up and didn't prevent this tragedy.God Bless you all
The government needs to vote to ban the AR 15 and other rifle guns
I was born and raised in the house my mom was born in @ 1947 a mile away from sandy hook elementary. I grew up playing and spending a lot of my time in St Rose cemetery. never ever felt scared there. I have lots of my mom's family in there. my ancestor actually was "the first person interred in this cemetery"..... my family still serves in the ladies aux at the firehouse. I went to Hawley school (George washington and his army camped there during the revolutionary war. they also used the top of the flagpole as target practice and last I knew the same chicken with the bullet holes was still up there)
till 4th grade when they did relocation and sent me where I should have gone since kindergarten. I spent one year at sandy hook school. the nursery school I went to was on the other side of the beginning of the school driveway. my brother and sister had their weddings at the firehouse. So sandy hook and Newtown are In my blood no matter how far I go.
I do not know what it's like to lose my baby at sandy hook but I was brought back as well. my little hometown that was so unassuming and small and everyone knows everyone and usually everyone is in an old town family.
these folks are my brothers and sisters, and I will always feel such love and compassion for them. I just can't even convey that with words, and I am so disgusted that we are still having conversations about assault rifles. it's absolute bullshit. if it was a child of a congressman or woman or anyone like Ted Cruz or governor abbot or anyone from the NRA maybe we might see action?? probably not.

What a lovely tribute to the Sandy Hook community. It sounds like such a beautiful town with absolutely beautiful people. I'm so very sorry for all that happened there. Sending you love from FL.

We must never forgot about any of these shootings , and make sure to reform gun laws
If the cops had done their job and not stood around while the killer was in the school, we wouldn't have to forget about most of the shootings.
What shootings?
If DHS ever quits producing them as gun control propaganda,.,.......we'd never have them to start with. They've only been producing these scheduled exercises ever since Virginia Tech,......IMMEDIATELY after Obama was eletced.
You can’t imagine why an .223 rifle would be needed in a civilized society? How about a few security guards armed with one at every school in the USA?

If schools had the power to get these kids mental health help, we would like to. At this time, ONLY parents have that authority, even though the schools are seeing red flags all over the place. Those red flags are in every school record, but teachers have to be "politically correct" when writing those records. If a record states, " student does not choose words to solve issues with his peers" it means he is a bully and has anger issues that need to be addressed. When a teacher observes these things, they should be taken seriously by the administration/parents, but usually we are ignored or told to "stay in your lane". This should not be, especially since teachers and other students are the people who are affected!
Marijuana and medication that is being prescribed to our kids doesn't help

The man and his late son share my maiden surname, which is not exactly mainstream. This tragic family and mine share no geographic similarities, yet I so identify with his pain. Yet, all these years later, no steps have been solidified to stop this carnage. That said, disarming law-abiding citizens is not the panacea. Proactive and valid examinations of the cause rather than the effects is the surest way of ending this treachery.
Absolutely. Very well said. I always think of Mark, Jackie, Daniel and his siblings all the time, especially when another tragedy occurs, which is becoming, regrettably, a regular occurrence. This is all so senseless. These babies are scared to go to school and this just breaks my heart.
who was the person at the store in uvalde that sold the weapons to the shooter...who are they what is theirnpro ess did they follow protocol or didn't just to make a sale and make money
The latter.

My first thought was "you've gotta be fucking kidding me YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS" we held out that it was just a lock down with an armed guy and then my third thought was about Sandy Hook Promise and I said OUT LOUD
" it's didn't work? "
And then
"I'm so sorry that it didn't work.... I'm sorry that your efforts went to waste"
How many firearms protect you, Katie?

Just get rid of the guns. I don't understand why it's so difficult to live without them. People shouldn't have that much power in their hands. Obviously we cant handle them. Children are dying. That should be enough to make the change. Why do you need a gun? To protect yourself? Wouldn't you rather defend yourself against someone who can't shoot you in the face. Even if there's responsible people out there, sorry but this shooter and the others like him, ruin it for you all.
Nope we need guns for self defense and hunting, As a firearms geek I'm for people owning them for whatever reason they want. I'm planning to own 4 someday two handguns and a Carbine and shotgun
@@CrossOfBayonne You don't need them, you want them. If people were able to survive without them before guns were invented, I have faith we can do it today.
Get your children out of government schools. Governmental schools will not and cannot protect your children. Place them in private schools that are armed and secure, or homeschool. It’s truly heartbreaking to see parents grieving, I mourn with you. I pray that God heals them from this tragedy.
I agree. We can't rely on the current administration to do anything, it's all a front, and the way they're using Uvalde for their agenda is wrong! I come from a rough neighborhood, I can tell you that if someone wants to get hold of a firearm, they will, most likely any type they want. Illegally!! Criminals don't obey laws. The mentally sick don't even know what the laws are.
We need to secure our schools, it's just the times we're living in. Open gates, open doors, no security, it's putting our children at risk every time we send them to school. Not everyone can afford private school, or home school, but until we secure our schools, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop criminals and the mentally sick people from getting in.
As long as republicans exists, things will never change.
are you advocating for genocide?
When I heard about the shooting I thought of how similar to Sandy Hook including the shooter shooting his grandmother as Lanza shot his mother!
Sandy Hook was a grab for guns thought the emotion of "children dying" the same as Uvalde! I truly hope this is where the similarities end!
I want Assault weapons BAND!!!
Nice spelling.
Percussion or brass🥁🎺
that would be a great band
And still no mention of that women in W Virginia who save 40+ from a gunman with a riffle using her 'legally' own weapon...
@TrancePilot It's not an issue of keeping track of the good deeds of responsible gun owners. The government needs to put a process in place where mentally ill people can't purchase guns. No one wants to see this continue to happen.
Listen to Mark Barden's words again.
@Mr. LostMyChill literally just that one time and they'll never shut up about because it makes them feel less responsible for dead children. by the way, I'm pretty sure that lady used a handgun and not an AR-15...so moot point since handguns aren't the kind we're seeking to ban anyway
@Mr. LostMyChill More often than murders. Half a million to over 3 million times per year they are used in defense.
@@corinnehernandez4549 There already is a process, it's called having them institutionalized.
LMFAOOOOOO learn to dodge
I’m so sorry..but, let’s focus on the ways we have built a society that leads to more and more people becoming unhinged, depressed, and mentally ill…gun laws having changed much the past 50 years but these shootings have. Let’s fix the core problem instead and not look to guns as an easy scapegoat
But guns are the problem.

@@robertdanos805 Nikolas Cruz WAS NOT a victim of school bullying! He deliberately butchered 14 students and 3 staff members at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine's Day of 2018 in Parkland, Florida for *NO APPARENT REASON!!!* Anyone who was a real victim of school bullying would NEVER ever do anything like this! Those 17 people he murdered that day, he RUINED THEIR LIVES!!! He ruined their lives by taking them out of this world, and into their graves! I can understand why those families are angry with him, and I don't blame them, they have every right to be angry with him! This should have been a death penalty case, but one stupid juror decided that his life was way more important than the 17 people that he murdered that day! Nikolas Cruz was no Messiah, he was the devil, and the devil deserves to be punished, and he deserves to die, and he should've never been alive after he killed those 17 people! His life is not as important as the 17 people he murdered on that awful February 14 2018! EOM!
Awwww....I had wondered if there were any of you left, still desperately trying to pretend the shooting murders of 6 brave educators and 20 innocent children who were mercilessly shot to death by a gunman with an AR15 gun in the shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14th 2012 isn't real. Does it help you soothe yourself to pretend this shooting massacre isn't real? I certainly hope so. 🤕

Demand all teachers and school employees pass mental health screening, drug tests, and background checks. Give them weapons training and a concealable handgun. Require them to carry at work. If they cannot or will not do this they should not be allowed to care for America’s children.
What about teachers who are blind or lack their right hand, or just a thumb? Even if able to be great teachers, they would be fired from/denied their job, and you find it just/fair?
About the mental health thing : Mass Obsession with big guns and other massive deadly weapons is not a sign of mental sickness... For sure?
So more guns and train teachers to become sharp shooters so they can defend themselves? What if a teacher snaps and shoots a student or staff? What if a student steals a gun from a teacher and accidentally shoots themself or someone else? Why not just teach 8 year old kids & older to shoot guns and bring them to school so they are prepared to kill any future murderers who attack their school?Only in america - do people think that more guns will resolve mass shootings.🤦♀️ In most countries - steps were taken to ban gun ownership and sales and restrict guns to police/military only. Some countries the government even buy back the guns from the public to reduce gun presence in their country. While these solutions are not perfect for america - it is still better to take such steps instead of just introducing guns in classroom.
