- 0:32Speaker 1: 11 and 12. I've been watching the Lindsay Clancy case
- 0:38Speaker 1: and I'm really disturbed. I just don't think, here's the thing,
- 0:42Speaker 1: this might be controversial to some. I don't think that
- 0:46Speaker 1: adults should kill children, whether it's in Gaza or in Massachusetts, right?
- 0:53Speaker 1: I think that if you are a mother and you
- 0:56Speaker 1: slaughter your children, you have by definition proved you're a mother.
- 1:01Speaker 1: I can't even imagine a scenario where you would kill
- 1:04Speaker 1: children and have a society writ large justified. I just don't.
- 1:12Speaker 1: I can't think of any scenario where I go, yeah. Now,
- 1:17Speaker 1: there would be a slight pause if they were teenagers.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Everybody wants to kill them. They just don't. But I'm

- 2:01Speaker 4: three babies, eight months old, three years old and five.
- 2:05Speaker 2: They were babies.
