  1. Doctor you are lost. Please think 🤔.

  2. GOP: we love blood and violence caused by guns

  3. They're dead.

    DO SOMETHING!

  4. He is so well spoken, wow that was a powerful speech.

  5. And when these kids file for disability with S.S they'll get denied and S.S will tell them to go get a job. Once again thank the republicans for stripping S.S and using 3rd party "determination services"

  6. Gun Reform ..? Dr Roy Guerrero ..? This Is Unbelievable they Would Dare Use this massacre For Another Gun Grab …. This Was a Failure On The Police an Law Enforcement Totally … As Well As an Investigation as to Where This Poor Young Man Was Able to Get the Funds To Even Buy the Weapon one of The Most Expensive Ar's Known an Huge Amount of Ammunition being we know he was poor . It Seems He Was Given the Means , Same As the Police Allowed Him to Commit the Murders The Teacher Whom Lost All 11 Students Said Children In Another Classroom Said To Officers "Officers, we're in here"… The children calling out for help… yet none came …none responded.. only getting there kids and leaving An The Police Left To the Outside …. This is A Mental Health Issue , An A Complacent And Criminal Law Enforcement Who Allowed Murder ….. They Are Above the Law Hence Why They Are Immune To A Murder charge For this or a Accessories To Murder charges .. Yet Anyone Else Would Be Charged For even getting him ammo or anything else … The System Is Rigged an These Kids Were Murdered by the Police Not Doing there Functions Yet they All Earned Hazardous Pay an maybe more vacation time paid of course for the stress they took from holding parents back … What America Needs Is Police Reform , And Accountability …. Lastly Mental Health Testing Before Firearm Ownership , Awareness An A Channel Of Reporting with Immediate Response if Necessary . This Series Of Events Is Very Strange The Police Literally Knew a Man With a High Powered Rifle Was Inside a School Going room to room for an hour an NOT Barricaded Shooting … The Gun Didnt matter He Could have had a Knife , Sword , Or Bare hands an Killed More in that Amount of Time So this Gun Kick Is Ignorant …

  7. Thank you Sir sadly they didn’t hear nor care about your factual truth. The republicans are death to the pleas of their constituents. And their oath “they ignore the harm and stand behind the NRA and the guns.”

  8. Are you aware that the L.A.P.D police help finance weapons to the Mexican Drug cartels?! Tyranny happens

  9. I pray to Allah directly not to fetish, inanimate, person, animals or anything, Indeed the human mind is suposed to have matured enough.

     [24:35]

    Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth unto His light whom He will. And Allah speaketh to mankind in allegories, for Allah is Knower of all things.

    [24:36]

    (This lamp is found) in houses which Allah hath allowed to be exalted and that His name shall be remembered therein. Therein do offer praise to Him at morn and evening.

    [24:37]

    Men whom neither merchandise nor sale beguileth from remembrance of Allah and constancy in prayer and paying to the poor their due; who fear a day when hearts and eyeballs will be overturned;

    [24:38]

    That Allah may reward them with the best of what they did, and increase reward for them of His bounty. Allah giveth blessings without stint to whom He will.

    [24:39]

    As for those who disbelieve, their deeds are as a mirage in a desert. The thirsty one supposeth it to be water till he cometh unto it and findeth it naught, and findeth, in the place thereof, Allah Who payeth him his due; and Allah is swift at reckoning.

    [24:40]

    Or as darkness on a vast, abysmal sea. There covereth him a wave, above which is a wave, above which is a cloud. Layer upon layer of darkness. When he holdeth out his hand he scarce can see it. And he for whom Allah hath not appointed light, for him there is no light.

    [24:41]

    Hast thou not seen that Allah, He it is Whom all who are in the heavens and the earth praise, and the birds in their flight ? Of each He knoweth verily the worship and the praise; and Allah is Aware of what they do.

    [24:42]

    And unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, and unto Allah is the journeying.

    [24:43]

    Hast thou not seen how Allah wafteth the clouds, then gathereth them, then maketh them layers, and thou seest the rain come forth from between them; He sendeth down from the heaven mountains wherein is hail, and smiteth therewith whom He will, and averteth it from whom He will. The flashing of His lightning all but snatcheth away the sight.

    [24:44]

    Allah causeth the revolution of the day and the night. Lo! herein is indeed a lesson for those who see.

    [24:45]

    Allah hath created every animal of water. Of them is (a kind) that goeth upon its belly and (a kind) that goeth upon two legs and (a kind) that goeth upon four. Allah createth what He will. Lo! Allah is Able to do all things.

    [24:46]

    Verily We have sent down revelations and explained them. Allah guideth whom He will unto a straight path.

    [24:47]

    And they say: We believe in Allah and the messenger, and we obey; then after that a faction of them turn away. Such are not believers.

    [24:48]

    And when they appeal unto Allah and His messenger to judge between them, lo! a faction of them are averse;

    [24:49]

    But if right had been with them they would have come unto him willingly.

    [24:50]

    Is there in their hearts a disease, or have they doubts, or fear they lest Allah and His messenger should wrong them in judgment ? Nay, but such are evil-doers.

    [24:51]

    The saying of (all true) believers when they appeal unto Allah and His messenger to judge between them is only that they say: We hear and we obey. And such are the successful.

    [24:52]

    He who obeyeth Allah and His messenger, and feareth Allah, and keepeth duty (unto Him): such indeed are the victorious.

    [24:53]

    They swear by Allah solemnly that, if thou order them, they will go forth. Say: Swear not; known obedience (is better). Lo! Allah is Informed of what ye do.

    [24:54]

    Say: Obey Allah and obey the messenger. But if ye turn away, then (it is) for him (to do) only that wherewith he hath been charged, and for you (to do) only that wherewith ye have been charged. If ye obey him, ye will go aright. But the messenger hath no other charge than to convey (the message) plainly.

    [24:55]

    Allah hath promised such of you as believe and do good work that He will surely make them to succeed (the present rulers) in the earth even as He caused those who were before them to succeed (others); and that He will surely establish for them their religion which He hath approved for them, and will give them in exchange safety after their fear. They serve Me. They ascribe no thing as partner unto Me. Those who disbelieve henceforth, they are the miscreants.

    [24:56]

    Establish worship and pay the poor-due and obey the messenger, that haply ye may find mercy.

    [24:57]

    Think not that the disbelievers can escape in the land. Fire will be their home – a hapless journey’s end!

  10. 👏🏻Well said, Dr. Guerrero, it’s time for politicians to change the laws!!!👏🏻

  11. As a gun violence survivor myself at 15 years old, my heart breaks for them. I survived the deadliest mass shooting in the country 5 year ago in my hometown.. Las Vegas, NV.
    I suffer with survivors gulit everyday and I dont feel like I've done much for the 2nd chance I was given at life. I am 21 now. My heart breaks for them, those 19 officers were cowards 💔

  12. This is a setup. Lol
    Celebrities dont care about your kids, they care about not getting canceled and obeying.
    They take advantage of these people, every mass shooting..just like the wildfires…they dont stop. Interesting.

  13. this is BS laws are not to made on the spur of the moment, its amazing they think decent laws can be made on a whim, and still not addressing all the other murders in states that have these strict laws you are trying to pass because they are not working… how about we leave these idiots in jail and quit letting them out… like 9/11 you continue to give up your rights and freedoms because of laws made without any thought and government loves it because you give them power over your everyday life

  14. These folks in Congress have become seditionists against the Constitution and this must be the line in the sand or we lose the republic.

  15. And yet, those Republican bast** will listen to this and do nothing. Please vote them out. Stop blindly supporting Republican candidates. They won't change their stance until you change your votes. Our kids are worth it.

  16. I had to block the guy behind him to continue watching.

  17. god bless those children and teachers 🙏❤

  18. Imagine not being able to identify your child, except for the sneakers or tshirt they wore that day. We don’t need assault rifles in society.

  19. Everyone seems to say this same thing when you give them a wad of cash and a script.
