| 0:00.0 | So a couple of weeks ago, I come across this news item that yet another mass killing, another killing |
| 0:06.0 | spree has occurred in the United States. I just thought, oh, just another mass killing. You know, |
| 0:12.4 | I remember a Columbine when it happened. I remember just being very interested in the news story. |
| 0:18.9 | And as each subsequent mass killing news story popped up since then, I feel like I've become more |
| 0:25.2 | and more desensitized to it. But this one was a bit more interesting, I think, because I started seeing |
| 0:31.9 | a lot of people posting things on the internet regarding misogyny. So this killing a couple weeks ago |
| 0:37.5 | was the killing in Isla Vista, University of California, Santa Barbara. His name was Elliott Roger. |
| 0:43.5 | So at first, I just thought I was just another one of those stories and another headline and another |
| 0:49.2 | tragedy. And we would just move on as a society. But I started seeing a lot of people posting things |
| 0:56.0 | about misogyny, a lot of things about sexism, a lot of things about men who hate women and want to |

| 1:11.9 | And then I started seeing people posting things saying, not all men. I started seeing men saying, |
| 1:18.6 | hey, wait a second, not all men are misogynistic people who want to kill women. So I thought, well, |
| 1:24.8 | that's interesting. Just took a note of that. And then I saw a huge backlash on the not all men |
| 1:31.3 | movement called Yes All Women. And again, read some of that material and was compelled a little bit |
| 1:38.1 | more about the story. And then I saw some coverage of one of the fathers of the victims of the |
| 1:44.6 | Isavista killings. He was talking about gun control and he had a very passionate speech about |
| 1:52.0 | how we need to crack down on guns and how his son would still be alive if we had stricter gun laws. |
| 2:00.4 | And I thought, oh, okay, well, makes sense. Another mass killing. So, you know, we have to start talking |
| 2:06.7 | about gun control again and gun rights. And then I started seeing a backlash against that. I saw |
| 2:12.6 | an article written about something that Joe the plumber was saying and how he was saying that, |
