0:00.0 | Hi, everyone. It's 4 o'clock in New York and we begin today as we have done so many times, |
0:09.7 | too many times on this show with a crisis that is uniquely ours, uniquely American. Today |
0:15.5 | our country witnessed the 129th mass shooting of this year alone. This one, like so many |
0:22.4 | these days, took place at a school. Three young students and three school staff members |
0:27.3 | were killed today. They were killed at Covenant School. That's a private school in Nashville, |
0:31.9 | Tennessee. After a shooter walked in and opened fire. After law enforcement engaged with |
0:37.0 | the suspect, the shooter was killed according to law enforcement. The shooter was a 28-year-old |

1:53.0 | She was on vacation just a few blocks from where the school shooting took place today. She heard shots fired and ran to the scene watch. |
2:01.6 | Why don't you guys tire to covering this? Why don't you guys tire to being here and having to cover all of these mass shootings? |
