Here turned himself in, has shown no remorse, no regret. Put out a manifesto detailing his hatred of an invasion of hispanics and that is our reality here. Brooke, youre in dayton. I am, chris, thank you. Were in dayton, ohio, just hours after the nation was rocked by the Mass Shootings there in el paso, a similar scene played out just over this way in the middle of one of the most popular neighborhoods surrounded by businesses, lunch spots, bars, movie theater. This is where this happened in the wee hours of sunday morning. When it was all over just 30 seconds after the shooting began at least nine people were killed including the gunmans sister. Including her. Investigators believe the shooting in el paso was driven by the gunmans efforts to stop a, quote, humanitarian invasion of texas as chris mentioned that is according to what police are calling this online manifesto published just 20 minutes before the attack and its put this renewed focus on President Trump and his rhetoric, words like these from a rally last november about migrant caravan, remember this. Last week i called up the United States military. Were not playing games, folks. Theres no games. Because you look at what is marching up, thats an invasion. Thats an invasion. Today the president condemned the shootings in both el paso and here in dayton, vowed to prevent similar tragedies from happening in the future but avoided any mention of what he said in the past. The shooter in el paso posted a manifesto online consumed by racist hate. In one voice our nation must condemn racism, bigotry and White Supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in america. We must reform our Mental Health laws to better identify mentally disturbed individuals who may commit acts of violence and make sure those people not only get treatment but when necessary involuntary confinement. Mental illness and hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun. He said Mental Illness and hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun. You heard him blame the internet and social media and video games. But a lot of people are left wondering, mr. President , what are you going to do to stop these Mass Shootings in this country . Whats his plan . President trump clearly wanted to keep the focus on Mental Health today, not guns. While he did propose a couple of policy ideas related to Mental Health and giving the Death Penalty to hate crimes he didnt Call Congress back from recess to act. Its also notable with his attention to Mental Health today, that it was President Trump who rolled back an obama era regulation that would have made it harder for people with Mental Health issues to buy weapons so President Trump today focused on the hate and evil that drives these acts and stayed away from the shooting. Whether his rhetoric has fanned the flames, the gunman in el paso used some of his words. Theyre defensive about linking it in the white house saying democrats are politicizing it by doing so. Something else the president didnt acknowledge in his Public Statement today was background checks just hours after tweeting Immigration Reform should be tied to background checks. In past he supported universal background checks only to back away from pressure from the nra. No mention of further gun reforms other than his administrations previous ban on bump stocks but that hasnt prevented further Mass Shootings as weve seen in the past couple of days. Yeah, we know the house passed this sweeping bill since february and still waiting for the senate to consider it. Speaking of capitol hill, pamela, thank you very much. Lets go to manu. Pamela, thank you. Pame pamela brought up the fact the president didnt demand members of congress to come back from their summer recess to vote on this gun ledgelegislation. What are you hearing . There is a debate behind closed doors just moments ago where they discussed their next strategy in moving forward. House democrats did pass that universal background check bill and theyre debating what their next steps should be. I am told that nancy pelosi wants the focus to be trained exclusively on Mitch Mcconnell to try to pressure the republicans to come back into session in august and bring up that universal background checks bill and pass it. She says that people that shes spoken to, victims, Family Members who have been victims of gun violence want that to be the focus as well. But there are democrats who believe other strategies should be in place including having the house pass other legislation to come back this session. Im told some members raised the prospect of the house coming back to session in august to pass additional measures like an assault weapons ban for one, but pelosi and other Democratic Leaders like jim clyburn are concerned that doing taking such steps could muddy the waters and take the focus off pressuring the republicans to move on background check legislation so thats where she want the focus to be. Im told she said on the call this afternoon that she said the president and Mitch Mcconnell have to feel public sentiment on this and we have a golden opportunity to save lives. She is trying to argue push on the background checks bill and worry about the other legislation later time but see if her members ultimately agree with the moment they want the senate to come back. Brooke. Yeah, in the meantime, america and el paso and dayton wait. They wait. Ma manu, thank you very much. Chris, to you in el paso. Thank you very much. This situation gives us the opportunity of taking care of what is easy first. Rejecting right wing extremism, folding it in to what is obviously domestic terrorism and getting at the resources and creating that political momentum. That cooperation could be contagious and taken to what is obviously to everyone in our country except the lawmakers which is we need to change the rules to access to weapons. Maybe if they start what is easy they will get the resolve to do what is proven to be all too hard. One big reason the human cost. Our interconnectness to the people who get hurt and destroyed by these situations so lets talk about what this did to this community. We have jacob cintron. We have dr. Allen tyrod and medical director the chief of staff and cindy stout president and ceo of el paso childrens hospital. I wish that i was meeting you under different circumstances. I say it, we need to be here. We need to tell the stories of what happened here. And what was capable because of what was done. What is the hospital dealing with, jacob, in terms of what its been seeing and what its had to deal with in the last couple of days . As a Level One Trauma Center in the region we plan for this and drill for this so as soon as we got the call, our surgeons, our medical staff, our nurses, everybody came in. We had people coming this that werent called to come in to come in and volunteer and connected with the other hospitals. Hospitals outside were calling in to offer assistance. Dr. Tyroc is our chief of staff and trained his surgeons amazingly well so we had people lined up ready to go. Patients came in and they received the best care and sadly we had one that didnt make it that came into our trauma already so injured. 22 gone now. We know hispanics were targeted. You dealt with the human cost. This murderer made a specific point, doc, of saying ill use the ak47. I believe thats the weapon that does the job best in these situations. Tell people what that did to people. It causes destruction. Damages tissue. When the bullet hits somebody, it opens up and fragments and causes more tissue damage, injure, blood vessels, nerve, veins. Different than a handgun. I took a fragment this big out of a patient yesterday and still removing bullet fragment. With what you do, why should people care about what kind of weapon it is . Because its not meant for sport. Its not meant for deer hunting. Its not meant for protecting yourself. Its for the military. You see that in the manifestation of what it does to the body. I do. And the chance of surviving contact, how does that change . It makes a big difference because its damaging more tissue. On saturday alone we used 110 units of blood on 14 victims that we received that day. We used 50 more units yesterday and a few more units today. A lot of damage and bleeding that goes on especially in the first few minutes after these events. When we had the cartel war across the street, across the river we were getting these victims just the same type of damage were seeing now. Its what the military sees. Cindy, obviously your mandate being with children, children were involved here. The story about those two parents who it seems the mother fell on top of her infant and the infant lived. The parents are gone but you saw kids. What kind of toll does this take in your experience. It really takes a toll on a number of people. Obviously the family first and foremost, our hearts go out to them and fortunate we have teams that are very well trained to address these types of situations. You always hope it never happens but if it does this is what we train for. Then moving into the period of really working with our staff member, physicians and the community at large to provide them the resources and the tools with which to recover successfully. You see terrible situations all the time. This is unique. This is the monster that was coming after them. What are you seeing in the families and the kids and the faces and what theyre dealing with. Were dealing with Family Members that not just one Family Member that theyve lost but multiple Family Members. Its truly changing the dynamics of the families here and as a closeknit community they also are feeling it too so its going to be a long road ahead of us but its a Strong Community and well be able to support one another to get through it. One of the sad ironies of this situation is that the hardest parts of this we wind up having to deal with best, our First Responders show up in seconds. But it would be a much better place if you didnt have to do it. Im sorry, jacob, this is a time we have to put our arms around people. Thank you for your work and god bless. Thank you, doctor and god bless, cindy. Thank you so much. A part of this story the worst of these situations always bring out the best in humanity. Our First Responders. The helpful people and the communities that come together but, brooke, its always this same frustration. Why does it have to be this way . Why cant we be as united and stopping the next one as we are in dealing with the moment of crisis . It is the best in people who are those who rush toward, you know, incidents and shootings such as this. It is the best people and the nurses and the staff and the doctors who tend to these, you know, innocent people who quite simply were i supposed in wrong place at the wrong time, chris, thank you. Were here in dayton in addition to chris being in el paso and a man who grew up in the same neighborhood as the shooter in dayton will join me live. Details on what he said was the gunmans troubled past and the resiliency of this neighborhood in dayton. Ey really appreciate the military family and it really shows. With all that usaa offers why go with anybody else . We know their rates are good, we know that theyre always going to take care of us.

Just as the nation is mourning what happened in el paso, texas, want to make sure we are here in dayton, ohio, to shine a light. The names. Louis oglesby, derek fudge, logan turner, 30. Thomas mcnichols, 25. Beatrice warrencurtis, 36. Monica brickhouse, 39. Nicholas cumer, 25 and megan betts, 22. About the time it took for me to read those nine names, the gunman who were not naming here in dayton, ohio, took away their lives. Within the same 30 seconds the police took him down saving hundreds of lives. Lots of bars and restaurants. Imagine just a saturday night. People out enjoying themselves. As far as the why, there is still according to police and the mayor, still no motive in the shooting but this is what they found in the scene across the street. In the gunmans arms, a 223 caliber rifle with 100round drum magazines. The gunman arrived here in this neighborhood with his sister in what Police Describe as a companion, a friend, the gunman actually ended up killing his sister, she was one of the nine names i just read and the friend is in the hospital. Were told this companion is cooperating and authorities believe he had no advance knowledge of this attack. And while the shooter and his sister separated at some point it is unclear whether they are killing was intentional. It seems to just defy believability that he would shoot his own sister, but its also hard to believe that he didnt recognize that was his sister. So we just dont know. Can you talk more about the acquisition of that firearm and your thoughts on your citizens owning such large magazines . Yeah, its problematic. It is fundamentally problematic, to have that level of weaponry in a civilian environment unregulated is problematic. Fundamentally problematic so says the police here in dayton. When police first identified the gunman my next guest came to the realization and tweeted, i now know a mass shooter. In any other country if i told someone that they would think im lying and in ours im nowhere close to the only one. Now they can say that. Thank you for being here. Tell me when we were listening to that vupd from tsound, you s werent in chicago in weekend. Very likely i would have been right where it happened. You said your two favorite bars. Theyre two of my favorite spots to hang out and ned peppers, i wouldnt say i frequent it but i visit it fairly enough. When i read your tweet i know now a mass murderer, a mass shooter. How do you know him . How did you know him. He lived down the block from me and he also went to the same School District as me for i assume his whole career. I went there my whole time, k through 12 and being such a small school i graduated with a class of 205, you notice just about everyone that goes to the school. Of course. Its my understanding you werent good buddies i had a lot of interacts with him because of the proximity and also worked at the local chipotle and i liked it so i saw him a lot. Tell me what he was like. I saw him as an outcast. A little different than everyone else. How so . Its kind of hard to put exact words on it. The things hes into isnt the mainstream so draws a Smaller Group of friends to start. What was he into . Like i said he kept kind of to himself. I know he was into music and pop culture but nothing i can put out there that i knew he was into that could give us insight into what he was thinking. You mentioned where he works and you had seen him not too terribly long ago at least this past week. He was working at chipotle and came to visit the restaurant. And he said, hello, how are you . Yes, limited, hi, how is it going . Hi, connor. We know he killed his sister. Have no idea if it was intentional. Opened fire on anyone and everyone out on a late saturday night. Have you ever met the sister. I have. I knew her less well than the shooter. She would always smile and wave. A friendly face which makes this tragedy sadder because i have a friendly face no longer i will see. Think of the parent. Not only do they have to do deal with the fact their son is not who they thought he was but mourning the loss of their daughter. What do you want people to know about dayton. Weve had some tragedies here. In the recent future we came together really well. It was amazing how well as a city we came together. We can do that here. This city might actually be able to recover in a way that no other city has recovered before from this and i am looking forward to that. Im sorry youre even having to say that and recover yet again. Thank you so much. I appreciate your time. Pleasure to meet you. Just under the circumstances.
