Former FBI Exec on Fla. Shooting, Gun Control: ‘We Have to Take a Look at the Current Laws’

‘I believe in protecting the Second Amendment’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
TODD: "Let me bring in Sean Henry, he is a former executive assistant director of the FBI, national security analyst. I know you've probably been hearing Jim and I go through this. But give me your initial reaction of what you're seeing and sort of I'd like to go bigger picture here. This is the 18th school shooting just in 2018. And today is Valentine's day."
HENRY: "Yeah, you know, watching the scene and watching the evacuation of school, understanding tguish that parents are going through and the law enforcement response the way they do their response looking for the shooter, this is something that we've seen play out too many times in the last few years. And listening to Jim, I think there are a lot of social issues. I'm a former law enforcement office and you typically come on air here to talk about what is happening strategically in terms of law enforcement. But in this case, listening to Jim, there certainly are social issues here. As a nation we have to come together and recognize that there has to be a response and it has to be a comprehensive response. I don't pretends to have the answers. I'm a gun owner. I've had guns my whole life. I'm responsible and authorized to have one. But I think we have to look at the current laws in place. And while I believe in protecting the Second Amendment, I'm a believer in that, but we have to look at how guns get into the hands of certain people. And I'm saying all that high level, we don't know the facts and circumstances here."
