| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to The Dirt Show. |
| 0:11.2 | Since the last time I spoke to you, more people have been shot, more Americans, in a three |
| 0:20.7 | day weekend, basically, than usually a shot in countries during an entire year, many |
| 0:29.2 | countries. Many countries just don't have these kinds of shootings. Now, we're not the only |
| 0:37.2 | country. New Zealand had a mass killing, obviously, Norway had a mass killing in Israel. There |
| 0:43.2 | are shootings all the time by terrorists, but there's something very special about America, |

| 2:04.7 | belong to the states, the states, the states, the states. Then these very same people say when it |
| 2:10.6 | comes to guns, states should have no power whatsoever. None, none! The states can't tell |
| 2:20.7 | people anything about guns because of the second amendment. Tell you about a case, okay? |
| 2:29.2 | California passed a statute, a perfectly reasonable statute, saying that below the age of 21, |
| 2:37.0 | below the age of 21, a person cannot own a semi-automatic military weapon, essentially. |
