Megyn Kelly On School Shootings: ‘We Haven’t Done Virtually Anything’ | Megyn Kelly TODAY
On the 28th of April 1996 Australia had a mass shooting, 35 people died including a set of 8yr old twin girls. The government made changes to gun laws and controls and mental health. They did a buy back scheme, paying money to Australians for weapons, it resulted in 63,000 weapons being handed in. Australia is known for some of the toughest gun controls in the world ... we have never had another mass shooting since. The gun man is in prison for life, we do not have the death penalty in Australia .. laws were changed so he can never be released ... God bless America ... land of the free ... ironic that it is the home of the brave ... you have to be brave because of the fear to send your child to school.
Leandra Smith thank you for sharing this. I had no idea. I’m from Europe. To me, US gun laws and also their culture of fear towards one another is so insane. I wish they would get an outside view tinder how they are hurting each other.
Anika d.S.P. Hi Anika it is so sad, i hope this brings change but the National Rifle Association is so large and powerful, i think it will be a struggle for them. I went through Europe on a holiday 10 years ago now, so very beautiful with so much history. May you and your family always be safe, healthy and never have to live in fear, may you live long lives of peace and happiness xx 😊
Same in Scotland, Americans "national pride" in their 2nd amendment is terrifying
WELL SAID, LEANDRA SMITH.
Leandra Smith I agree with the mental health part of your argument but you cant compare Australia to the US for violent crimes per capita. Australia has no where near the population compared to the US and Australia doesn’t have the same societal issues as us; a high volume weapons and drugs being smuggled across the border is an example. There are countries that have lenient gun laws with relatively low violent crime rates and countries with strict gun laws with high rates of violent crimes while other countries are all over the map statistically. The issues we have in our country are multifaceted and intertwined with one another. From our high priced/low quality health care to aspects of our over medicated culture, there are things we have clearly neglected to address for many years and we are still suffering from the repercussions.
Everything she said, is what NEEDED to be said. I literally got goosebumps listening to her.
This is the first time I have felt like you actually spoke your mind Megan. I’m very proud of what you had to say because I felt like it was very honest
But ignorant.
The state shouldn’t need to offer to pay funeral cost of school shootings, they should be required to.
Tong Yang Unfortunately, if the.common people had to keep paying for funeral costs, the authorities might do something
The NRA and the FBI should be required to pay!
D R - please explain why....I'll be waiting
Holy chit. Megyn off Fox News and speaking the truth.
Kelly is right! People are gonna forget about this in 1 week and then there will be another shooting ,then another!!!!!! We have to do something!! I don’t even feel safe at school anymore!
QueenNala Pictures ueah OTHER people will but the ones who went through this won't. & :(
I don't feel safe anywhere amongst a crowd anymore, it's sickening.
Blame Obama, these shooting all started under his administration.
genuineuni last time I checked, the Columbine shooting happened in 1999 which was during the Clinton administration. There ain't a need to blame any president for mass shootings, it's just a sign of the times.
We have to stop drugging our young boys
no mass media news network will address it because,,,,,big pharma are their sponsors!!!
SSRI's handed out recKlessly like candy are behind this maddness
Megyn no matter what people say you really spoke today my heart goes to the loved ones of the victims
I wonder if she'd be saying the same thing if she still worked for FOX.
Maybe that's why she took LESS money to be somewhere else.
Jay G that's an appropriate comment as she is part of the problem, she spends years pushing the pro gun rhetoric and constant anti Obama sentiments. She now has the front to stand up and say they didn't fund an Obama initiative? I don't believe she is ernest about anything she says, soulless is how she comes across to me. With these type characters in our news and politics nothing will change regardless of what they say.
Ziontrainism
Hummmmm...
of course not. fox is in the business of opposition to left idéals and cnn and others are in the business of opposing right ring idéals. its what give the ratings. most ofthese people work for thèse places do not share thèse views. they just have to play the part. i would.
Exactly smh
I don’t understand how anyone can be against Gun control, no one is saying that they’re going to take all your guns but instead make STRICTER laws to try and reduce events like this. I’m from England and I can’t even begin to imagine if this were to happen at my school, just thinking about it makes me upset.
England does not have codified rights. You are subjects of the Government. American's are citizens of a free state.
Get people out of Fox and they begin to show their humanity, well said Megyn
smefour agreed. I always connected with Megyn Kelly, I knew she would come around.
Goodness ,America is so scary. Very unsafe.
W e s t e r n E u r o p e
John Johnson good thing Hilary isn’t our president
Lol it’s one of the safest places you could be in the world . Just stop.
Justin Timberlake “Say Someting” #NEVERAGAIN movement!
m.ruclips.net/video/EJkKF677MU8/видео.html
protect America against America
FINALLY! SOME SENSE & COURAGE! WELL SAID MEGYN!!!!!
Fuzzy Puppet Imagine if police officers weren't using a majority of their time policing CIVIL traffic offenses, and were actually patrolling the neighborhoods AND SCHOOLS. Technically, it's a conflict of interest for a peace officer to handle both criminal and civil law ( Our justice system is more concerned about collecting money from civil offenses).
Place the highway patrol in with Dept of transportation,and let them handle the civil traffic offenses. If they come across a criminal act such as DUI or warrants, the police officer is just a radio call away patrolling our neighborhoods, like they should be!
Well said indeed.
President Trump needs to prohibit illegal weapons possession to save his populations. Please mr president change the rule for people who have weapons to save your people’s. Your people needs you very much.
well dressed propaganda by another anti gun advocate. Armed guards and fences at all schools is the only answer. you cannot get rid of guns without a civil war
You could not have said it better!!! Well said Megyn
Mmmm while at fox you did have a very different ideas about school shootings and guns.
When your out of the echo chamber you become a different person
path of redemption, perhaps
I find Megyn Kelly much more effective like this rather than the showbiz Megyn.
agreed.
+Guy Bacos I assume you are talking about her phony promos she does where she pretends to be excited about the topic she's got coming up.
by showbiz do you mean "lead by facts", yeah this play to emotions style of reporting is much more genuine to her audience!
I'm fine with her Today show even though she's not Oprah, and I only watch the occasional show, however, I'd watch her more if she was like this, this is where she stands out from the others.
She's ineffective regardless. Such a shallow and lame presentation. She is NOT a free form performer. She needs script and control of environment to be effective. Now, she seems just a border line ranter.
What is happening to humanity? Enough is enough.
The Constitution was designed to be amended. It's time to amend the second amendment to follow the example of Australia. In Australia, there is tight control on semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons. These weapons are permitted for licensed individuals who require them for a purpose other than 'personal protection'. The 1996 firearm control law in Australia created a national firearm registry, a 28-day waiting period for firearm sales, tightened firearm licensing rules, and established a temporary firearm buyback program for firearms that were once legal but were made illegal by the law. There hasn't been a mass shooting (5 or more victims) in Australia since 1996. Would we avoid a mass shooting just by passing such a law? Probably not, but it's a start. All the NRA cares about is the ability of gun companies to make money. This problem we have is not about money, it's about guns being too easy to obtain.
Dr. TJ That's actually written very well. You are just about the only person to actually offer a solution other than just saying, "Stricter gun laws"
VG Dodo
We have examples of what works in other countries without taking all guns away. I've found that following good examples almost always results in good conclusions. But our Congress people are beholden to the NRA due to campaign contributions and it's just sickening that they let these mass shootings continue for money. Just sickening.
*@Dr. TJ*
We will give up our firearms when the police and military give up theirs. The 2nd Amendment is a natural born right, protected under the Constitution of the United States, and is necessary to a free state. We have the right and authority under the Constitution to use force against those that try to enact such control and force-when the time comes. Your entire comment is grossly void of facts and a misunderstanding of exactly _what_ freedom is, the Constitution, and the protected rights we have therein.
"All the NRA cares about is the ability of gun companies to make money"
No, the NRA's sole purpose is to protect the 2A.
Our gov't has given us no reason to believe the reson for the 2A has changed.
They have consistantly proposed nothing that would help.
JG CS
Did you miss my first two sentences? I said it's time for an amendment. If you don't have automatic or semi-automatic weapons, nobody will be taking your guns away, so stop jumping to the extreme. And if you don't care about these mass shootings, you are a heartless fool with no ability to comprehend what these shootings do to the families of the victims.
Say it on Fox
Chant Bagley right!
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
Just because tyrants use some necessity arguments doesnt mean all necessity arguments are used by tyranical. Obv the same is true for human freedom. Slaves prob always rebelled based on arguments of necessity.
Respectfully being from Texas. Texas had the first mass shooting in U.S. history at the University of Texas. He used a long rifle with a scope. The police only had pistols and shotguns. The students ran to their dorms and grabbed all the hunting rifles they had and began firing back at the shooter and pinned him down. It was the students that gave the police hunting rifles. It was the students that stopped that killer. I don't know how to stop all these school shootings. They are horrible. But I've just given an example of 18, 19 , 20 year olds fighting for their lives. What are we supposed to do? Give up our guns? A murderer does not care if it is legal or not to have a gun.
Thank you, Megyn, for your words of harsh truth. It's difficult to feel anything other than despair...
Totally fake. Megyn is part of the globalist deep state crowd. She is a criminal paid to lie to the American people to push political agendas like gun control. Don't fall for this theatre. It's all made up crap. The researchers are tearing apart this fraud. Show me one wound, one puddle of blood, one person actually crying with real tears. I see nothing it's all fake.
Natalie Hartsfield ...GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MEGAN!!..BEAUTIFUL SMART LADY!!..
You can't shake the devil's hand they say you're only kidding, Megyn.
We still remember how many times you attacked victims of other shootings when you were at FOX.
New Message it’s ok for people to change positions. If you only count on people who agreed with you from the beginning, you will have far less support for your cause. How are you going to win people over from the other side? Oh you were a gun owner so we don’t want your support. You are a fool if you think we can make compromise that way.
New Message ...better her rocking up late to the party...then not rocking up at all....
Brad Derks We don't need people as blatantly dishonest on Megyn Kelly on our side.
Megyn Kelly is a hypocrite! Type: "Another mass shooting in a gun-free zone" in the youtube search bar and watch the first 10 seconds. She doesn't want gun reform. She has no principles, she just says what she's told to say at whatever media outlet she works for. NO PRINCIPLES.
that's right carlos...always refreshing to see someone switch over to the side of good instead of evil.
Remember when she was on Fox news defending the NRA saying it is to early to talk bout gun control, hypocrite!
seiza adams honestly I think this woke her up. She has kids if her own and I think she realized just how serious this all is.
seiza adams,
Good point. By not supporting gun control I think Megyn also contributed to this tragic loss of lives since she had a public platform from which to speak. She was a puppet for Fox News until realizing after being sexually harassed and receiving no support that is all she was...nothing but a puppet. Maybe being disregarded in that way is what it took for her to see a different perspective. Things can happen for a reason. Then again, maybe she is changing her tune because it is professionally beneficial for where she now works. I hope it is for the former reason and not the latter reason.
Well she’s clearly has a changed perspective. Better than still being in the fox echo chamber.
Facts
JadeLC95 no honey her Check changed
Most politicians are in NRA's bag
Nothing to do with them.
Jeeves jaheebs don't they make the laws? Obama put a law in place to make it harder for the mentally ill to obtain guns and Trump revoked that law. The NRA brings billions of dollars into the economy annually. So even though there have been 29 mass shootings THIS year so far nothing will be done. "Nothing to do with them" - That's like saying brewing companies have nothing to do with alcohol related deaths.... and who allows alcohol to be sold.... THE GOVERNMENT. THEY HAVE EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT. They're in control.
She is one of the Fox News persona who stroked the culture war and contributed the stalling status of not dealing with gun violence. Insincere attitude makes me cringe.
Gee Yu she definitely was part of the problem and I don’t so soon forget. People like her and her fox colleagues should be held responsible.
People can and do change - lets hope she is one of them?
Gotta agree! She basically sold her soul to fox! I cannot take her seriously.
Gee Yu You are right.
agreed
in My country guns are banned, never had a shooting, not even in the roughest neighbours
forever never Heard somebody wanting guns. we are not used to that. never Heard a debate about it actually
what's your country?
we have been doing something, its called "the classic thoughts and prayers and best of luck in the future" move
As disturbing as it might seem, we should show the graphic images of those children who died. People hide from the truth that's being told to them, that all evidence points to, because it does not affect them (yet). Since they don't witness these acts themselves, they are not haunted with the memories and lessons of what happened.
And it's been the same throughout history:
• Civil rights was at a crossroads. That was until images and video of police beating demonstrators as they were attempting to walk across Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma were shown on tv and in newpapers. A week later, President Johnson passed Voting Rights Act.
• The same buildings that were bombed less than a decade earlier, and had no effect on policy change or legislation, suddenly became a moniker for government intervention after images of a plane flying into the towers in NYC, and humans jumping out of it's windows to their death, was shown on every TV set around the globe.
• In 1938 Rainey Bethea was publicly hanged in Owensboro, Kentucky to a crowd of 20,000. News outlets took pictures and published them on the front pages of papers across the land. A year and a half later public executions were no longer allowed.
• The Vietnam War was narrated by the gruesome color images sent home to Americans. When was the last time you saw a color photo from our CURRENT (and longest EVER) war in Afghanistan?
• Images from the death camps in Poland (sue me) painted a stark understanding of just how far the path of demagoguery can go. A lesson we have forgotten, but that resulted in a global coalition against genocide.
• The mother of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old African-American boy who was lynched by a hate mob, insisted on a public funeral service with an open casket for her son so 'the world could see' what they did. Rosa Parks would later say about her infamous bus sitting protest, "I thought of Emmett Till and I just couldn't go back."
It's the images that help people to learn the lesson without having to personally endure the sacrifice. It creates compassion, and forces empathy. 20 kids in Sandy hook, or 17 kids in Parkland, are just numbers and locations. They can not tell the full story, or instill the necessary motivation for desired change.
People are desensitized to violence. After awhile, it won't bother them. Desensitivity to violence is one reason why you have this problem.
I disagree. Wars have been fought since the dawn of time -- before there were xBoxes or Rated-R action flicks. I do believe desensitivity can lead to violence, but lets not pretend that violence hasn't always existed, and will always exist. What we can do as a society is try our best to mitigate the possibility and probability of it occurring.
For instance, something very trivial that has had a HUGE impact is street lights. The idea that if we literally shine a light on violence people will be less prone to allow themselves to be seen committing it. People are more prone to commit crimes in the dark (literally and figuratively) .
Rob Porter wasn't fired because he allegedly or actually stuck his wife(s). He wasn't disciplined because the allegations became public. He was fired/resigned because of the IMAGE that was released to the public. It wasn't the actual actions behind what he had done, but the visual evidence, and emotional reaction it manifests, that enacted change.
The same can be said about Ray Rice and countless others. People can become desensitized to violence through exposure, but they can also become apathetic towards the victims and acts of violence through non-exposure.
TWoN *German death camps that took place in Poland* I'm tired of my people being blamed for their own demises. The Germans took over Poland and started the camps. They are German. Do not blame the Polish people. Would you call them Jewish death camps? Have some respect.
Ani
I didn't say "Polish death camps" or "Jewish death camps", I said "death camps in Poland", which they were. I do not blame 'Poland' for getting invaded, or 'Jews' for getting captured, or 'Germany' for being afraid. I blame the ideology behind demagoguery, and if you re-read my original bullet point you would see that "demagoguery" was the evil I pointed to, not "Poland"
However, you are right in your sentiment, and you pointing out that I quite blatantly included "Poland" in my point. It obviously detracts from the overall issue and point I was try to make which is how the dehumanization of "the other" can lead to extreme human violence, and that only visually exposing the extent of that violence can have the necessary impact to stop it -- hopefully before it starts.
I should have said "death camps of WW2", as it not only has a more impactful appeal, but is also more accurate. I appreciate you taking the time to bring this to my attention and call me out for the misleading inference, and detraction for my overall point.
I apologize for any offence taken or any misleading interpretation from what I wrote. My inclusion of the term "Poland (sue me)" was not meant to make an inference that Poland or it's people were responsible for the German controlled death camps. It was meant as a jab against the country's new law limiting the dialogue around the conversation, and the dangerous road that leads to.
TWoN I completely agree.
This is the Megyn i missed.
JustMeee She should be tarred and feathered out of news. She is as fake as Brian Ross.
WARBOSS OF DOOM is she wrong tho? Is any part of what she said a lie or crazy? It’s all true
Want school shootings to stop....then arm teachers. Simple solution...
Uber ????!!!!!!! A shooter just casually pull up in an Uber!!!!!!!! Wowww
Uber ad for any other shooter in the future
Uber driver didn't report him?
It's the equivalent of Ryan Lanza's ID being found on Adam. It creates the illusion that the story is factual.
The shooter had a special collapsible AR-15 so the Uber driver didn't see he had it and according to one report at least 190 rounds of ammo.
Why would anyone expect anything to change as long as the NRA have a majority of politicians (financially) in their pocket.
Nothing to do with it.
They have to be voted out of office.
Exactly
public funded campaigns is the answer.... get corporate money out of politics..... don't you know money is the root of all evil
The nra gets their money from a bunch of small donors, regular people voting with their wallets
this clown defended the GOP and the NRA for years on Fox news
MAybe she's changed? People so learn for the better
She's a hypocrite! she didn't change, most on fox are.. Andrea Tantaros who is suing Fox for sexual harassment has been on air numerous times bashing accusers and defending predators "war on boys"
its insane
Maybe nbc is giving her a check
seiza adams Probably she was young and seized the opportunity FOX NEWS gave her...now she has grown and is being nothing but REAL!...I'm a foreigner and don't live in the US (fortunately) and what I can tell you is that there's NO CIVILIZED / 1ST WORLD / DEVELOPED country in the world, like your country proclaims that it is, that even allows its citizens carrying and storing guns indiscriminately, in name of an outdated amendment in its constitution...NO COUNTRY...Mental issues DO NOT explain everything...so, I think you americans need to CHANGE for good...and that is not by protecting the 'status quo'!...Prayers for the victims!...
M Sanne so your from another country so how do you know if ours is bad or not is that what cnn told you I mean Australia took everyone’s guns and there are still shootings there also in the UK
Thank you Megyn
This perfectly encapsulates what I am feeling as a parent today
I just don't understand WHY schools are still so accessible to outsiders during the school day. WHY aren't schools locked until classes are dismissed for the day?!? I realize that there were 3 innocent people murdered outside of the school, and they probably had no time to react and run. This just really hurts to see so many innocent people murdered, yet again. It may literally take parents saying my child will not go back to their school until some type of security system is in place to keep our children safe. Literally go on strike to keep their children safe.
American public schools are criminally underfunded. I would say they cannot afford proper security measures. But the military and Israel get billions of taxpayer dollars every year
EMS Paramedic...great comment. I've made similar ones on social media. Since the US will never change it's delusional gun culture... it's time for all schools to become far more secure. For example, I think every school needs "panic rooms". Alarm goes off... kids go to the panic rooms.
hugh jorgan I think what they need is more security around and inside the schools.
they had security, armed security.. didnt help at all!
Mat S Where were they?
I am with megyn kelly she is so so much right
And there lies the beauty of Megyn Kelly. Thank you!
These shootings in the USA happen so often many people tend to overlook them thats super heartbreaking,we need Gun reform
No, we need to address the issues causing the violence.
Jeeves jaheebs
Which is far-too-easy access to guns, especially to mentally unstable people because obviously these background checks are not enough.
Cs go giveaway Guy - Medical problems aren't criminal, therefor would not be in any database that is being looked into when purchasing a firearm. Don't be so dense
Good to see that even after a long career at Fox News Megyn didn't completely lose her soul...
It is nice too watch someone who actually cares! God Bless all the Families, and we need change for the good of all people in the nation.
I was a gun-loving corporate-employed disabled Army Veteran. I am not an educator-both as an administer and a science teacher- and since the Florida shooting we have had to deal with our students, our children, and our teachers worried with fear. It’s not fair to them. What has been successful in other countries, especially those with a far high crime rate‽
no its not normal only normal in the usa
Nothing will get done, losing hope.
Ruby M don't lose hope just yet. There will be a reckoning unless something changes. We need to take back our country.
Ruby M The change begins with each one of us individually
DON'T expect others to change Be the change
Elevate mankind with morality !
Denounce the evil and immoral acts of others
Ani Rose
Exactly!
We need to load up all these liberals and send them.to China or N Korea
Vote these gun loving republicans out of office NOW!!!!!!!!
2 Cent -- and then what? What's your grand plan?
Gun control stupid.
Then the Dems release their terrorist.
We have to pray for the safety and protection of our children of our schools. Something has to be done. This is disgusting.
17 counts of premeditated first degree murder and 15 counts of attempted murder , say what it really is .
Remember MAGA? Apparently it stands for Make America Grieve Again
more like Make Automatic Guns Accessible.
Kah Weng Chok good one
This has been the most real news I have heard in the longest time. The Longest Time. Thank you
Natalie's Lifestyle This isn’t news, it’s propaganda.
Anthony G. How about you just post your comment about the video and move on. Whatever you think is your opinion and I really don’t care about your opinion.
Natalie's Lifestyle Right back at you kid!
Natalie's Lifestyle no, you don't listen to differing opinions. That's why you're such a moron.
Phaedrus yes I do listen I just decide not to care about them
I know I'm several yrs late with my comment, but...
I've watched your show just a few times, but after this... You won me completely over. You spoke from an American's heart, but what stood out to me was you speaking from a mother's heart, a sister's heart, an aunt's heart.. a human being's heart. In those moments, my admiration for you was immeasurable. Your empathy was more than just shown... It was felt. Thank you for being a voice of truth & light in these times of darkness & lies. 🖤
Yes! It's good to hear someone on TV in the main stream speaking up!
Beautifully presented Megyn Kelly!
Shes reading a teleprompter
Plus, she's a biological man. People are so f'g gullible. They have no idea the level of deception. It really is like the Matrix here.
Get a grip ffs
1 shooting on average every 2.5 days.....
More like everyday if you count inner city Chicago and New York
...with (A lot of the time) little to no deaths.
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. Welcome to planet Earth.
To many people refuse to allow schools to put in metal detectors and security, they say it would be to much for a child to handle, they are the ones to blame, not the politicians.
Actually, Virginia Tech was not the worst school shooting in US History. And, not to make you even more depressed, but mass shootings at schools have been happening for nearly 100 years. Interesting to note that 80 years transpired between the first one and the second. Now, they happen every 2 days (or at least have this year). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_School_disaster
The problem is that Religion and Violence often unfortunately go hand in hand,So Religion wont make us safer for sure,Common sense gun reform will
Dima Andro it ain't about religion
Problem is, your ida of common sense and sensible peoples idea of it, vary greatly.
Honest question, is Megan Kelly still a conservative (republican)?... If she is I wouldn't believe anything she just preached right now.
Joseph Stalin there’s a difference between being a republican and being a human with empathy. In some cases you can be both. 🤦🏼♀️
Joseph Stalin Preach fellow comrade. Send them to gulag
12 school shootings so far in 2018? I taught for 6 years as a high school math teacher in 2 different private schools. It is so scary sooooooooooooo scary these days. Please pray for all the victims of school shootings. My heart is so sad so sad
Would have been nice if Megan would have said this when she was working a Fox News!!!!!!!!!
Where was this Megyn Kelly when she was on FOX?
Good question.
Christopher Weaver she had to be a puppet
This is so sad.
I'm not religious, but I'm not gonna tell you not pray.. but I would ask with your prayers, if you're gonna take the time to pray.. please take the time to also call your LOCAL REPRESENTATIVES and take some action.. and SPREAD that message to others who are praying.. if enough of you pray and call, or mail or join a march etc.. your prayers may actually be answered, and bring actual comfort and peace of mind to the survivors and do something for the victims instead of giving the same lip-service that everyone gives every shooting while nothing is ever done.
"No parents should ever..." But we aren't going to do anything to stop this from happening again.
Less prayers, more laws.
This was the experience their souls needed to grow... to live the life of a murderer and to live the life of a murder victim... I was raised Christian and I'm no longer religious but I'm still spiritual... and I believe that things both bad and good happen for our spiritual growth... We are spirits having a human expereince, not humans having a spiritual experience... we have agreed to the life we are living right now and when our work here is done we have also agreed to leave this life the way we die.
Ziontrainism #thoughtsandprayersarebullshit
More prayers, more laws, more action. You are a fool to speak the way u do.
You are being very foolish to think the way u do. This is the work of Satan, not God. God is good. God loves and He loves and puts up even with people like you who choose to abandon the Truth.
god doesn't exist and neither does the devil. Anyone with half a working brain can figure that out! Maybe that's Americans problem - such a backward country when it comes to imaginary people in the sky.
I love her dont care what they say about her haters go away go Megyn mother of 7 agrees with you
Mother of 7? That's polluting.
MS-13, ISIS, the wall, deporting....really? GOP needs to get their act together
This is terrible I feel so helpless hearing this. What can we do??
We the people are the ones who hire, and FIRE
Its very refreshing to see her not just blame the ar 15 for every mass shooting. You can tell she knows her weapons. Ar15 functions the same as a pistol not a military weapon.
Here in Australia we have had ZERO mass shootings in 22 years since our government took drastic action on gun control after a mass shooting in 1996. We have loads of mental illness cases but no mass shootings.
I was 100% on board until she brought up prayer in school. Her message before that was 100% on the ball though. While I think mental health is a problem in this nation, we can't arrest people for being mentally ill or showing signs on social media. What if these people showed all the signs but have done nothing, there's no law against it. This is a hard subject with a lot of layers. I believe the NRA and U.S. Government are complicit. Something needs to be done, but too long has it been a conversation for another time.
That's what this country needs more of. Prayer. Love. Respect. POSITIVITY. What is prayer going to hurt? In a time where people are completely scared out of their minds....prayer is the only thing that may comfort those people. Until you're in the situation, I wouldn't knock prayer, but embrace it.
America is ridiculously religious. No other first world nation imposes religion on children in class or believes prayers work to such a high degree.
I respectfully disagree. While prayer doesn't hurt anyone, true, rational thinking and resolve are what brings resolution and change. As an atheist, I cannot accept that prayer is the answer. Prayer hasn't been the answer for the last 5000 years of civilization. Prayer will not stop the next shooter or the next after that. Action is needed.
thamm1979 I agree. It may not stop the next shooter, but it may provide comfort. As a Christian, that's what I believe. I'm not pushing or imposing my opinion. Just don't think it hurts anyone either.
Dana Coder yes i believe it provides comfort, and prayer without action is nothin
Image what the uber driver is thinking smh
So glad I don’t live in America not saying this can’t happen in Australia I don’t have kids but if I lived in America I would not being sending my kids to school
I'm still trying to figure out why arming citizens was seen as a logical thing.
i felt Megyn's heart in this......im so sorry for the lives lost....Praying for the families.
JB JG well what I can say from the outside looking in (meaning I'm not in America) gun control is definitely something that u all need to look at. But believe it or not they are people in this world who still believe in the power of prayer (I am one of them) so I think both can go hand in hand. Gun control and prayer ✌
JB JG you see that's where we disagree. I believe that pushing God out of school is part of the error. Prayer shouldn't be a option in school. That what I believe. I understand you view but I feel differently. Ensuring that the children are well rounded including the spiritual aspect. We can agree to disagree but I can assure you that regardless of how we feel if something isn't done very soon these things will not stop.
I think there are over 200 religions in the world with thousands of God's and hundreds more removed from history. We are taught these ideas at an age where you have no critical thinking skills and you quite happily accept the idea of Santa and the Easter bunny. Pretty much everyone follows the religion of their parents in the rare exceptions they turn to the closest God of their culture. There is a trend where the poorer countries have higher religious rates due to desperation (America being the exception to the rule.). We need a couple of hundred years before we move past this as a species.
Lovern bullets are real. There is no God. Wake up. Bring in gun control, regulate weapons so you don't have mass shootings every week.
dangriff12 If you like gun control then you are welcome to move to Chicago and tell me why there are so many shootings there, yet far fewer in the cities blamed for 'Supplying' the guns to Chicago Thugs.
*The NRA should pay for all the funerals and give $1 million to each of the families!*
MrBibi86 dude why
This happen 40 minutes away from my high school. I can't even describe how scared kids were and how quiet the school was on Thursday. I've seen mass shootings on the news before but it's a completely different experience when it happens so close to home and you know students who were affected. Something needs to be done. There is no reason someone needs an AR-15 or any other semi automatic. Children will continue to die because some Americans are too incompetent and corrupt to actually resolve anything.
The teachers should have the right to bear arms in the classroom.
Very good comments Megyn!! Agree 100%!! But as long as guns make money and profit is God nothing will change.
Yup
Welcome to America! Yee-haw
Welcome to Old Western.
having a 5, 7 and 9 yr old in school will make you see the world differently...thank you Megyn for speaking from the heart here.
Kids should be safe in every school no matter where you from!!!!
I'll be the first- my prayers will work- cause I am special. Yeah
The new normal.
Good to see Megyn Kelly back. It was seemingly like daytime had made some of that passion and fire go away.
I don't even want my kids to go to school. And that's very sad to say
This is so sad. Prayers and thoughts from Toronto . School should be safe for All children. There should be a change in gun legislation. There are people who own guns and lock them up properly I would hope that is the case. Megyn you use your platform for good and that is amazing. Bless all that are working to make it a safer place for all.
Gun laws ain't the problem
SSRI's are the sickness no one is talking about
no mass media news network will address it because.....
>>>big pharma are the sponsors of MSM!!!
SSRI's handed out recKlessly like candy are behind this maddness
( I wonder if the grief counsellors are gonna hand out SSRI's...
( BTW
SSRI's essentially do the same as LCD which the CIA originally used for mind control.......
We don't need your thoughts and prayers. We need your action.
We can only laugh out loud at this point. The Conservatives are in bed with the NRA. Nothing will change. 🔫
Nothing to do with it.
OMG that's so terrible prayers to all the families in Florida the kids who survived the ones we lost 😭
Last Thursday I was telling someone it's sad you can't send your child to school or go to church & feel safe! The news clip when he said,"It's hard to identify them because most don't have an ID on them". How can anyone hear this & it not affect you? I guess now every school year make them take a picture for a ID card with a chip on to wear around their neck & have to scan it when entering school! Instead why don't we stop this from ever happening again, we have to stand up & demand if not it won't!
Wake up America, think about your kids, guns are not safe, sending condolences to the families from South Africa.
JJ Potter guns are safe in the right hands. You can't blame guns just because the wrong person is using it.
Hannah Kitsch, Exactly, how do you prevent them getting into the wrong hands, stricter controls and penalties. The shooter was disgruntled and mentally unstable and should not have got his hands on that gun. It is not going to prevent this from happening all together, but even if there is a 85% decrease it is better than nothing. In my 30 years of being here I cannot remember a single mass shooting at school.
Ryanjk ID, sit down your not helping, this is about kids shot at the school and not about your cause.
Preach it Megyn!!
"Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. "
The state is paying for the funerals and grief counseling??
SCREW THAT!!!
Put some legislation in place to prevent this!
Guns and other weapons have been around forever. Maybe start using them to protect soft targets? Its something that any community can do. Go buy a gun and stand guard at a school. Do something yourself, dont wait on others.
Need armed guards at schools
Michael Onstad so they can die? Ever been ambushed on guard at a school by a kid with an assault rifles. Rules of engagement buddy.
And metal detectors
Andrea Ingham you sound stupid
i agree the shooter has the advantage of surprise,
Andrea Ingham If the school's doors were locked throughout the school day a gunman or anybody else who doesn't belong at the school wouldn't have gotten in.
one person tries to blow up a plane with a shoe bomb, and what do we do? we all have to take our shoes off...
Zane Ehnes You check shoes before you let them on the plane, just like we should check harder for any crime or mental health history before giving idiots guns.
Zane Ehnes thats so true.
Its just ridiculous
U dont have to take ur shoes off. The scanner at the aiport will do the jobs.
Zane. You are using your mind. You are asserting logic and reason. You are making sense! That is against the law! Report to FEMA Camp immediately!
Actually - I totally agree with you. This is some fricking kind of insanity.
Zane Ehnes ur analogy is a misrepresentation of what happened and it’s just straight up wrong. Shoe bomb =/= mass shooting and this isn’t the first time it has happened.
Sikh Temple Massacre Oak Creek WI. I was at work 5 blocks down that day. Weak Politicians are right fire them
IM NOT GOING TO WATCH . but did she happen to say anything about metal detectors , police or teachers with guns?
armed security guards at all schools
Not gonna happen. America can't afford it and less freedom if that were to happen.
Mike McGlock take money out of the overwhelming military budget...there are funds
Three ways to see this from (d)evolving:
1. Budget will skyrocket if it is a personal security guard. Impossible to implement and nothing gets done. Mass shooting next week on a school nearby you.
2. Law gets passed, assigned teacher gets chosen to carry a weapon inside school. Since most likely the teacher assigned will be a a NRA entusiastic nutjob, next thing you know teachers (due to being fired, suspended, or any other aggravation) will commit mass shootings with the same weapon that was supposed to protect the kids..
3. Law gets passed, assigned teacher gets chosen to carry a weapon inside school. Kids know who the teacher is, most likely will be the first person to come down in the mass shooting. Probably the shooter will grab the gun from his dead body, and commits the mass shooting with the same weapon that was supposed to protect the kids.
But hey, you have your 2nd amendment, so yay freedom.
Mike Papa the schools already have budget problems, now they have to find money for armed guards. That is not gonna happen.
BRING PRAYER BACK TO THE SCHOOL,,,TEACH THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ,,,,WITHOUT FAITH ONE DOES NOT HAVE TO HOLD THEMSELF ACCOUNTABLE Its a start, It worked before,It will work again
Because the 10 commandments and faith help... yeah, okay. God isn't real.

Also,,,, Gods Not Dead
Your only a atheist? Until your in a Fox Hole with live rounds going over your head.
We MUST start taking mental health issues seriously! When someone is known to be mentally ill and makes statements about killing, there needs to be a serious legal intervention. Otherwise, this sort of thing will continue to happen.
Well said Megyn! This TERROR hast to stop!
You people need to wake up. Don't believe these lies
