Mental health. Jericka duncan, thank you very much. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Growing up, a lot of people judged me because of the way i look. I thought all asians were good at math. You all look the same to me. No, where are you really from . 9 11 was your fault. How do you see out of such small eyes . Go back to your country. I guess i wish that people knew. We are not all the same. We are not all the same. We are not all the same. This is the cbs overnight news. The Broward County sheriff called today for tougher laws to keep guns out of the hands of people with Mental Health issues including forcing them to be examined by Mental Health professionals. President trump did not mention gun laws when he addressed the nation today about the shooting. I want to speak now directly to americas children, especially those who feel lost, alone, confused or even scared. I want you to know that you are never alone and you never will be. You have people who care about you, who love you, and who will do anything at all to protect you. So the question is what is being done to protect those children and others . Chip reid is at the white house tonight with more on this part of the story. Chip . Reporter well, jeff, the president didnt have a lot to say today about what he actually plans to do about School Shootings. One thing he did say he wants to do is work with state and local leaders to help secure our schools and tackle the difficult issue of Mental Health. But just last year the president signed legislation reversing an obamaera regulation that would have made it more difficult for some people with Mental Illness to buy guns. Now, jeff, as you mentioned, the president did not even mention gun control today, and the truth is as long as republicans are in charge of both houses of congress there is little chance of doing anything on that front. The one thing the president did say today that he definitely wants to do in the coming days is to go to parkland, florida and visit with families and local officials. Jeff . Chip, thank you very much. I did sit down today with a group of Stoneman Douglas students who felt compelled they said to talk to us on behalf of the friends they lost. From left to right on your screen now they are sierra, ariana, kelce, and jack. They told us that just minutes before the dismissal bell yesterday the fire alarms went off. There had been a fire drill earlier in the day. They thought this might be another one. They quickly learned it was not. So we went downstairs and theyre screaming code red. Code red. Just keep on going. Go back up. It was a very scary moment, but it was hard to believe that someone, an individual would have this type of power. We didnt know what was happening until our parents, who we didnt tell anything to, started texting us, asking if we were okay, where we are. Then we realized it was an active shooter. You were just 100 i was about 100 feet away from the shooter while he was firing. What did you see . I saw confusion and panic in the faces of people i went to school with, played rec sports with and saw every single day of my life for the last four years. The shooter was very active. He was actually walking down my hallway. He had shot and killed my teacher, and my door was wide open. And i was hiding in an open room that the shooter could have easily walked into and killed me. What is it that you want people to know about your teacher . He was just an amazing person. Mr. Beigel, his name. And he will forever be in my heart and forever be my hero because he basically saved my life. If it wasnt for him, i might not be here today. I didnt get to say goodbye to one of my best friends, and i got to find out this morning that he didnt make it. But i have to think about what im going to wear to his funeral now. I lost quite a few friends yesterday. One that i had class with who was very close to me. And knowing that theyre gone and i i would argue with them, and now that person is gone and i can never say im sorry. There were a lot of people that we lost, and they were wonderful people with great families. Those families do not deserve what happened to them. My moms best friend was waiting, was waiting all night because she couldnt find her son. And then now hes no longer with us. And i think that this could have been prevented. He should have never been able to get a gun. Jack, when shootings like this happen, a lot of adults have a lot of conversations about what they think should happen. What do you think should happen . We shouldnt sensationalize School Shootings because that would downplay the severity of what this means to the Parkland Community and the students and family of douglas. And the best way to go about recovering from this is by providing support, love, and attention to those who need it and then go about addressing a political agenda instead of because within about an hour and a half of hearing that one of my best friends got shot i turned on the news live stream to see that people were using this as an argument against gun control. You heard jack talk about guns and it was yesterday was way too early to Start Talking about it. I dont i dont think that anybody should be using this for their political agenda. But i do also think at the same time this kid should never have been allowed to get his hands on a gun if he was mentally insane. Ever. If theres anything that needs to be said right now, its that when you shut this tv off you have to go home and tell every Single Person you know you love them because you never know when your last time is going to be. I know howimportant that is for you, that message. Were going to go through this as a family. Stoneman douglas is going to go through this as a family. Parklanding will through this as a family. And together as a country were going to go through this as a family. Do you think youll feel safe when you go back . Through this whole ordeal we will be brave and fight. Were eagles. Were not puppies. I dont know that ive ever seen a more remarkable, composed and Inspiring Group of students than the ones we talked to earlier. They are a testament to this community. They are a testament to this school district. And they wanted the they want the nation to know that tonight.
