COMMONPLACE. IT IS TOO EASY TODAY FOR
TROUBLED YOUTH TO SURROUND
THEMSELVES WITH A CULTURE THAT
CELEBRATES VIOLENCE.4@
CELEBRATES VIOLENCE.4@ WE MUST STOP OR SUBSTANTIALLY
REDUCE THIS AND IT HAS TO BEGIN
IMMEDIATELY.4@
IMMEDIATELY.4@ WE MUST REFORM OUR MENTAL
HEALTH LAWS TO BETTER IDENTIFY @
MENTALLY DISTURBED INDIVIDUALS
WHO MAY COMMIT ACTS OF 4@4@
VIOLENCE, AND MAKE SURE THOSE
PEOPLE, NOT ONLY GET TREATMENT,
BUT WHEN NECESSARY, INVOLUNTARY
CONFINEMENT. 4@
CONFINEMENT. 4@ MENTAL ILLNESS AND HATRED PULLS
THE TRIGGER, NOT THE GUN.4@
>> OKAY.
>> OKAY.
>> OKAY. JOINING ME NOW,4@ A NOTED
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST, DR.
NICOLE.
NICOLE.
NICOLE. BEFORE I GET TO MY SPECIFIC
QUESTIONS, YOU HEARD 4@THE
PRESIDENT THERE.
PRESIDENT THERE. WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON WHAT HE
HAD TO SAY?
>> I THINK IT'S INTERESTING
THAT THE FIRST THING HE
MENTIONED4@ WAS MENTAL ILLNESS.
OR, THE FIRST THING HE
MENTIONED WAS VIOLENCE.
AND VIDEO GAMES.
THE SECOND THING IS MENTAL
ILLNESS, BUT INDIVIDUALS WITH
MENTAL ILLNESS.4@ 4@
THIS IS NOT AN INDIVIDUAL ISSUE
AND THERE IS NO PROOF
WHATSOEVER THAT PLAYING VIDEO
GAMES LEADS TO GUN VIOLENCE.
>> IS IT POSSIBLE THAT SOME
PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT PERSON ON
THE EDGE CONTEMPLATING CLOSE TO
THESE ACTS OF VIOLENCE,4@ MASS
VIOLENCE, THEY COULD HEAR
SOMETHING FROM SOMEBODY LIKE
THE PRESIDENT AND THINK THEY
HAVE BEEN GIVEN PERMISSION TO
CARRY THAT OUT?
>> YES. 4@
I MEAN, PRESIDENT TRUMP IS
SUPPOSED TO BE THE LEADER OF
ALL OF AMERICA.
AND SO WHEN HE LEAVES WITH THIS
SORT OF DIVISIVE RHETORIC AND
UGLINESS THAT HE SPEAKS AND
AIMS IT AT CERTAIN GROUPS, OF
COURSE THAT'S INVOLVED4@ IN HIS
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE. AND IF SOMEBODY'S ON THE EDGE 4@
OR IS PRONE TO VIOLENCE, AND
WHAT WE SEE IS THAT A LOT OF
THESE FOLKS THAT ARE DOMESTIC
TERRORISTS, LIKE ANY EXTREMIST
GROU4@PS, THEY ARE LOOKING FOR
SOMEPLACE TO BE LONG.
SOME SORT OF PURPOSE.
AND THAT'S WHY4@ HE BLOCKED
THINGS LIKE MILITIA AND WHITE
SUPREMACY GROUPS.4@
SUPREMACY GROUPS.4@ >> RIGHT.
>> RIGHT.
>> RIGHT. ANOTHER THING I HEARD TODAY IS
THAT NOBODY SNAPS IN THESE
INSTANCES.4@
INSTANCES.4@ THERE IS A TRAIL THERE.
THERE ARE THINGS THAT LEAD UP
TO IT.
TO IT.
TO IT. THERE ARE SIGNS THAT SOMETHING
IS WRONG WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL.
IS THAT TRUE?
>> THAT IS LARGELY TRUE.
WE HAVE SEEN IN A LOT OF THESE
SHOOTINGS WHERE PEOPLE HAVE
SAID, YOU KNOW, WE'VE BROUGHT
THIS PERSON TO POLICE, ET
CETERA, ET CETERA.
BUT I THINK MORE IMPORTANTLY
THAN THESE INDIVIDUALS IS THE
FACT THAT ALTHOUGH WE SAY
DOMESTIC TERRORI4@SM, THAT IS N
A CRIME.
A CRIME.
A CRIME. THERE IS NO FEDERAL CRIME4@ NAM
THAT.
THAT.
THAT. AND
THAT. AND IF WE DID THAT, RATHER THAN
LOOK AT INDIVIDUAL4@S, WE CAN
MONITOR THESE TERROR GROUPS,
AND WE COULD PUT MONEY TOWARD
THAT THE SAME WAY 4@THAT WE DO
COUNTERINTELLIGENCE, THAT LOOKS
AT TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS AND
EXTREMISTS FROM OUTS4@IDE THE
COUNTRY.
COUNTRY.
COUNTRY. >> LET ME ASK YOU ABOUT THIS.
THERE'S ALL KINDS OF VIOLENCE
AROUND HERE.
AROUND HERE. URBAN VIOLENCE, THE ILLEGAL
HANDGUNS, AND THAT'S WHERE MOST
OF THE CITY VIOLENCE AND
HOMICIDE COME FROM.
THIS DOMESTIC TERRORISM THAT WE
HEAR ABOUT, THAT IS DIFFERENT.
THAT'S THE LONE WOLF.
MOST OF IT, 4@IF NOT MUCH OF IT
LEGALLY BOUGHT AND REGISTERED
TO THIS PERSON.
MOST OF THESE GUYS END UP
APPEARING TO BE YOUNG, WHITE
MALES.
MALES.
MALES. WHAT IS THAT ABOUT?
>> I THINK EVEN THOUGH WE CALL
THEM A LONE WOLF, WE'VE SEEN
WHERE THEY HAVE AN AFFINITY OR
AN AFFILIATION AND GET THEIR
SUPPORT, AND THEIR IDEAS FROM
TH4@ESE GROUPS.
TH4@ESE GROUPS. SO, I'M NOT SURE.
WE MIGHT CALL THEM A LONE WOLF,
BUT I THINK WE NEED TO LOOK AT
THESE GROUPS AS A WHOLE ALSO.
>> THEY ARE ON 4@SOCIAL MEDIA.
THAT'S WHERE THEY ARE GETTING
TH4@EIR IDENTITY.
TH4@EIR IDENTITY. >> AND WE HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THEM
FOR YEARS, RIGHT?
WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT
MONITORING THESE GROUPS WHO
HELPED TO BUILD IT?
WE HAVE SEEN A LOT OF THESE
FOLKS WHO HAVE THESE SORTS OF
BELIEFS.
BELIEFS.
BELIEFS. THEY PRAISE AND HAIL DAVID
DUKE, THEY PRAISE AND HELP
PRESIDENT TRUMP BECAUSE THEY
SEE THEM AS THEIR LEADER.

IS THERE A LOT OF STRESS AND
FEAR?

ARE DOING WHICH BRINGS THEM
BACK TO, IF YOU AREN'T DOING
ANYTHING ABOUT IT, HOW CAN YOU
