Supporters but we understand the second amendment was written in 1791 and here we are in 2018 and weave to adapt and a adjust. >> and this you agree with, scott. youre a gun owner and i would imagine you agree with everything he just said? >> yes, there are a number of things that can be done that dont trample on peoples rights and property. fixing the background check system would have probably prevented this guy from buying a weapon in florida. i think there are also human processes we have to...

National story and probably illegal. >> greg: i guess because this isnt based on race. they would have to deny a black police officer as well. i think they should declare oakland a sanctuary city for police and see what happens. like a cross between "lord of the flies," and "dawn of the dead." high unemployment, high welfare, high homelessness, high debt. police officers are becoming janitors of human failure. police officers have to clean up after human filth left by the homeless population. me...

Was a human failure of the guy that took information in june, the one who failed to send this to the miami field office. or whether it was a problem with the system the way it is designed. so wray is not upfront with us right now. >> this is unacceptable to the president. we have to know what happened here.i know they are in the middle of the investigation. >> they screwed up! hogan gidley, they screwed up! >> no question. and heads have to roll. i do not work at the fbi that is something you ha...

They have their wheels checked so there were no anomalies and the human factor side. was the engineer being attentive and driving at the correct speed? what was going on in the cabin prior and during this accident. >> i know in previous amtrak accidents along these lines, very often it is a human failure, right? >> we go back to the accident outside of philadelphia and right, the engineer lost situational awareness and entered into a serious turn at more than twice the posted speed. they look at...

Upstate new york was human failure too, right? >> exactly. we rely a lot on the engineer at the front of the train to not only make sure the train is functioning correctly. they are obligated to know the route. to know where they are and know what the appropriate speed is. its a challenging job and hopefully we will get to the bottom of this. >> we dont know whether it was human or mechanical failure and its too early to make any such determination in this horrific derailment. if you say the spe...

Derailment, right? >> absolutely. the event recorder will tell the speed of the train and identify whether braking was applied and give the ntsb the basic nuts and bolts to look at before they start doing the human factors to see what else was going on. there was likely a forward facing camera on the train. that may give us help. i dont think it was a rear facing camera, but there was likely a for the facing one. >> the ntsb experts will look at mechanical failure and human failure, right? >> th...

Saying were fully cooperating with authorities saying workers diligently prepared for the impact of hurricane irma. saying they contacted florida power and light and their staff continually checked on the well being. >> it was human failure on the part of the medical staff. they should have sounded the alarm earlier. >> reporter: the deceased ranging in age from 71 to 99. carmen fernandez thought of one victim as her second mother. >> why didnt call me to pick her. they have any problem with the...

So, in someone who has been detained by your government, then commits a rape, as this guy did, that is not just a human failure, that is a failure of public policy. one of the great things that president trump said was when he said that he wanted to move to an australian and canadian style system of points. i dont think canada and australia have particularly great immigration systems. but at least the principle is that immigrants to a country should be of benefit to that country. and thats exact...

American special forces are not going to change the battlefield balance. and the reality is in the year in change that remains on the obama administration, i think its fair to say that the next ird, whoever he or she may be will inherit the same, you know, root canal or migraine headache that we call syria. its a tragedy, but we cant do nothing on one hand and nobody is prepared to go all in. so you have the goldilocks strategy, not too hot and not too cold. >> if you put these men and women on ...

>> well i think it is naive because we know this has happened before. we have other train crashes where human error has cost human lives. and thats the whole point of positive train control. we want to take some of the human error or all of the human error eventually if we could ever get to that point. but we want to take the human failure out of the system to save the passengers save the train and save the rail system. and, you know -- im not just saying amtrak railroad lines across the country...
