A discussion about the AR-15 on "The View" resulted in all of the co-hosts agreeing that automatic rifles and other weapons of war must be banned in the United States.

The conversation was part of the ongoing debate over how to stop mass shootings in the United States, or at the very least, limit the death rate. There are only nine states with so-called "red flag" laws, which allow law enforcement to remove weapons from those exhibiting unsafe behaviors. Limiting the death rate, meanwhile, would mean stopping high-power, rapid-fire weapons, which the National Rifle Association has claimed Americans need.

CNN's Jim Acosta faced off against a National Rifle Association board member on CNN Sunday who was in Houston, Texas, after the second-largest school shooting in the United States so far.

Acosta showed video interviews of children in Uvalde saying that they were scared to go back to school because they fear they'll get shot. CNN ran an earlier segment of comments from children across the country about how scared they are to go to school, many assuming it will happen to them.

A Texas law enforcement official defended the lack of response by Uvalde police officers after a gunman walked into an elementary school and started murdering children.

Texas DPS Lt.

Ben Beers, of Hillsboro, posted the video on TikTok explaining his decision to get rid of an AR-15 rifle like the one a gunman used to kill 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, and the post was viewed more than 200,000 times in the first day, reported KGW-TV.

An 11-year-old survivor of the Robb Elementary School massacre provided chilling new details about the murders of her classmates and teachers.

Miah Cerrillo spoke alongside her mother to CNN's Nora Neus about her traumatic experience, which began suddenly Tuesday morning as the classroom full of fourth and fifth graders watched a Disney movie as a treat for the end of the school year.

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Friday examined the "major discrepancies" in the police account of the roughly one hour that a teenage gunman spent at the Texas elementary school where he killed at least 19 children and two teachers.

The Texas Department of Public Safety defended the response by Uvalde police, but "Morning Joe" co-host Willie Geist said the changing narrative of what happened and how officers reacted was jaw-dropping, and he asked NBC News correspondent Ken Dilanian to explain what was so troubling about the law enforcement account.

NBC News reporter Tom Winter spoke to law enforcement experts who were shocked by the police response to the Texas school shooter.

Uvalde police failed to stop 18-year-old Savlador Ramos from entering Robb Elementary School after lingering outside for 12 minutes, and officers waited outside for nearly an hour after he barricaded himself inside a classroom where he killed at least 19 children and two teachers.

A Dallas/Fort Worth television station cut away from Jimmy Kimmel's emotional monologue about the Robb Elementary school massacre that left 19 children and two adults dead.

ABC affiliate WFAA-TV interrupted the six-minute, comedy-free monologue with a string of commercials, starting with an in-house news spot, before airing the end of Kimmel's opener, which he used for a three-minute ad for the gun violence prevention organization Everytown.org, reported the Star-Telegram.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough framed gun safety laws as a moral imperative, and not a political issue.

Republicans have resisted talking about measures to prevent the epidemic of mass shootings, saying it was unfair to politicize gun rights, but the "Morning Joe" host said it was long past time to discuss ways to keep military-style weapons from falling into the hands of killers.

A Texas television reporter struggled to overcome her emotional response to the Robb Elementary School massacre that left at least 19 children and two adults dead.

WFAA-TV reporter Adriana De Alba reported live from outside the school as families waited to learn whether their children had survived or been killed, and she powered through tears as she tried to describe the emotionally traumatic scene.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough singled out his friend Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) for refusing to budge on gun safety reform following another elementary school massacre.

An 18-year-old gunman walked into Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, and gunned down at least 19 children and two adults, and the "Morning Joe" host said it was long past time for Congress to restrict access to weapons of mass murder.

Former Donald Trump aide Alyssa Farrah called out fellow Republican David Perdue on Tuesday for using "racist dog whistles" to attack Democrat Stacey Abrams.

Abrams gave a speech over the weekend in which she essentially argued Georgia has focused too much on making itself a friendly climate for businesses while not doing enough to improve the overall quality of life, and she cited the state's maternal mortality, the high prison population and a host of other issues.
