these are commonsense things that the majority of americans, gun owners, nongun owners, republicans and democrats, these are majority of americans who support these policies that are proven. for example, we know that it's true in states like connecticut that instituted commonsense background checks, they saw firearm homicides drop by 20%. and states that implement laws blocking perpetrators of domestic violence see significantly -- upwards of 10% reduction of homicides by people's intimate partners. in 2009- 2009-2013, states saw r gun deaths per capita than states that didn't. this is fact. we know that commonsense gun safety supported by over 80% of gun owners, over 90% of americans will save lives. dr. king once said and i'm paraphrasing here, that morality kind be legislated but behavior can be regulated. that the law can't make someone love me but it can stop them from lynching me, that the law can't change the heart but it can restrain the heartless. we know we have the power to make the change. now, this is no panacea. these ideas won't solve all the problems, but they can make a

gun owners and nongun owners alike but american gun violence problem isn't going away. unless congress musters up the courage to take it head-on. or -- will congress to continue to give the thought and prayers and then you do absolutely nothing. we with have to act. because once again there was a massacre on american soil. once again it was inside a school once again american children were gunned down. we keep living through a night mare of gun violence that repeats itself in schools, movie theaters, churches -- nightclubs, concerts and every single day on the streets of the cities -- around this country -- sandy hook, aurora, charleston, san bernardino, orlando, las vegas,s, sutherland springs, and most recently parkland, florida. policemr. president, we can help this. weav have the power to help stop this. the question is whether congress has the political will to do it. whether this institution will finally put families first, our children first and stand up to the gun manufacturers and the nra. i urge every member of congress to reflect on why they first ran for off

it is gun owners and nongun owners. >> dana: eyes didn't say going after assault weapons. >> juan: i am saying that. most americans favored doing away with assault weapons. gun owners are single boat type people. they will vote on the single issue, guns. people who favor of gun control are not single issue voters and therefore their opposition is diluting. in this moment, the young people in florida we leading the way, you're seeing a shift in opinion. the question is whether or not the shift is on the right. i think that's why pretty much like greg said, senator ben sasse have ben sasse of nebraska said the president is reflecting the last person to talk to him. your people like breitbart saying it is trump's gun grab. people on the right reacting reacting as if what is trump doing. people in the laughter saying let him do what he wants to do but he has a fight among people who supported him in 2016. even with the plans he has put forward, can i get 60 votes in the senate without strong republican support? can i get 218 in the house? >> dana: that's why i said maybe -- i'm not sayin

. >> a lot of nongun own nester the districts who don't necessarily subscribe to a lot of the second amendment views in the republican party. now the question for those house republicans and the recent omnibus they passed the fix nix bill, can they get out there and talk about that and can they talk about in response to these parkland students and others in the way that reassures those voters. paul: all right, i think the debate will go right through november. when we come back as republicans gear up to defend their congressional majorities in the november midterms, some good news for the gop and some bad in the latest fox news poll. paul: four republicans gearing up to defend their congressional majority in the 2018 midterms, some good news and some bad in the latest fox news poll. the gop appears to be closing the gap in the generic congressional ballot, 46% favoring the democratic candidate in their district compared to 41% for the republican. that has narrowed significantly from the fall when 50% said they favored democrats and only 35% said republicans, but the poll also finds a

but be that as it may, gun owners, nongun owners understand that the status quo is untenable. we've got to do something. i hope that we will do it. and again, one of the things i am upset about is that this banking bill is built for big banks is now on the floor of the senate. we're not talking about guns. we're not talking about the daca issue. we have 1.8 million young people eligible for daca. some of them may start being deported so the american people don't want that. we're not talking about that. >> senator sanders, appreciate your time. there's much more ahead including the lawsuit filed on behalf of stormy daniels against president trump. more news on the mueller investigation and more news. we'll be right back. at when youe spending time with the grandkids... ♪ music >> tech: ...every minute counts. and you don't have time for a cracked windshield. that's why at safelite, we'll show you exactly when we'll be there. with a replacement you can trust. all done sir. >> grandpa: looks great! >> tech: thanks for choosing safelite. >> grandpa: thank you! >> child: bye! >>

virginia would not believe president obama would protect their second amendment rights coming from a nongun culture that he came from. so they were reluctant to say hey, we like your bill, we think it does the right thing. it has gun sense to it. doesn't infringe on my second amendment rights. we like your bill. we're just afraid if it's passed that president obama will take more liberties and take more things away. there's not a person in west virginia that believes that president trump will not protect -- he will protect their second amendment rights, he will not take anything away. so we have an unusual, a unique opportunity to truly get meaningful change. >> that's very interesting. because i'm not part of gun culture. so we look at this, or i see this and it seems like the nra has a stronghold and you've got single-issue voters who simply say "don't touch my guns." take me inside west virginia. do you believe there really are those who support a slightly different version of the second amendment? or more commonsense gun laws? because when the only thing we see is dana loesch or wayne l

gun owners and nongun owners alike, that america's gun violence problem isn't going away unless congress musters up the courage to take it head-on. or will congress continue to give the lip service of thoughts and prayers and then do absolutely nothing? we have to act because once again, there was a massacre on american soil. once again it was inside a school. once again american children were gunned down. we keep living through a nightmare of gun violence that repeats itself in schools, movie theaters, churches, nightclubs, concerts, and every single day on the streets of the cities in every state around this country. sandy hook, aurora, charleston, san bernardino, orlando, las vegas, sutherland springs, and most recently parkland, florida. mr. president, we can help stop this. we have the power to help stop this. the question is whether congress has the political will to do it. whether this institution will finally put families first, our children first, and stand up to the gun manufacturers and the n.r.a.? i urge every member of congress to reflect on why they first ransom for office.

majority of independents and overwhelming majority of gun owners, overwhelming majority of none -- nongun owners. 97 out of 100 people and take the margin of error, it might be 99 out of 100 people gry that firearms should not be sold without a background check so that criminals and gang members and terrorists can't go to a gun show and acquire a weapon of war and then use it in our schools, in our movie theaters, in our churches, in the public square. we have virtually unanimous public consensus on that and every public opinion is showing the same thing except the numbers continue to go up. now, some people will say in response to this, but the second amendment won't allow us to do anything. there are a lot of people on this debate who are wrapping themselves in the flag of the second amendment saying the second amendment prohibits us from implementing this overwhelming mandate for a criminal and mental background check. they are wrong and we know that they're wrong. the supreme court in 2008 in the district of columbia versus heller case interpreted the second amendment definitively for
