Nicole Hockley, co-founder and CEO of Sandy Hook Promise, slams do-nothing politicians on gun violence

Joy Reid begins this episode of The ReidOut with yet another devastating tragedy that leaves us all emotionally spent, exhausted, angry, and indescribably sad. Eighteen little kids and one of their teachers are dead in Texas, and countless more traumatized, after yet another mass shooting, this one at Robb Elementary School. The school is in Uvalde, Texas which is 85 miles west of San Antonio. Texas Governor Greg Abbott identified the shooter as an 18-year-old Uvalde resident. He added that the shooter abandoned his vehicle and entered Robb Elementary with a handgun and possibly a second firearm. Abbott added that the shooter was likely killed by responding officers, but that the events were still being investigated. Abbott, along with former president Donald Trump, and Senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz are scheduled to speak at the National Rifle Association's 2022 annual meeting on Friday in Houston. Nationally, 134 children have been killed by gun violence this year alone. Joy Reid is joined by Nicole Hockley, co-founder and CEO of Sandy Hook Promise. She lost her 6-year-old son Dylan in the Sandy Hook Shooting.
