But they're very deceiving. And I saw that right away. I was like, how can they name this bill the Safer Communities Act? When I read it, 90% of [the Safer Communities Act] had nothing to do with keeping our children safe. It only included $3,000 per school. How is that going to keep my children, my four children safer? It's a huge disrespect to use such a tragedy to be able to send billions of dollars abroad as well. (08:12–15:07)
