| 0:00.0 | Two mass shootings rock the nation. The media and Democrats blamed Trump, and our social fabric continues to disintegrate. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show. |
| 0:12.0 | What an absolutely horrifying morning to be talking about news and politics. Obviously, this weekend was just devastating for the country for a variety of reasons. |
| 0:22.9 | Two, mass shootings taking place. One in El Paso, Texas, the other in Dayton, Ohio. As it turns out, |
| 0:28.8 | there is also a mass shooting in Chicago. We will get to all of those. We should take these one at a time |
| 0:34.7 | because they obviously have different motivations. They obviously have different backgrounds. There's been a lot of attempts to conflate all of these types of shootings under one broad rubric. That is not going to suffice. We have to get very specific about what exactly caused each of these shootings, who is to blame, what we do about it, and all of the rest. So we begin today with the shooting that everybody is obviously talking about the most, |
| 0:54.5 | and that is the shooting that happened in El Paso over the weekend. According to NBC News, |
| 0:58.9 | a gunman opened fire Saturday in a Walmart and a nearby shopping mall in El Paso, Texas, |

| 1:21.4 | country right now is that when something truly terrible happens to the country, if you go on |
| 1:26.5 | social media, if you talk with |
| 1:28.2 | people around the country, not in person, but you just do it via social media or on the |
| 1:32.5 | internet, very often the first thing that happens is everybody doubting everybody else's |
| 1:36.3 | motives. We need to start from the premise that when Americans die in act of evil, that we're |
| 1:41.9 | all on the same page, because we are, we're all on the same page. This is an act of evil that we're all on the same page because we are we're all on the same page |
| 1:46.8 | this is an act of absolute monstrous evil and as it turns out very specific type of evil |
| 1:52.5 | white supremacist evil and let me tell you the white supremacists who are on the move right now |
| 1:58.3 | these absolute loser evil pieces of human debris who are active |
| 2:04.0 | on 4chan and 8chan, the people who are coordinating to create the impetus for attacks like |
