LAWRENCE JONES (CO-HOST): Jack, brother, you do a lot of work in the community, tell me about the root cause of this. What is causing, young men mostly, to commit these crimes?
JACK BREWER (GUEST): Lawrence, you know I'm in a unique position where I walk into prisons every week and I literally have hundreds of men who have pulled a trigger and committed gun violence. So, I get a chance to understand and know what is going deeply on inside their heads. I have to tell you man, this is just showing you how much we are perpetuating sin in this nation, at the root cause of this is fatherlessness, man. Over 82% of these mass shooters end up being fatherless kids when you look up and see the research and data. So, you know, we have a deep issue where if you don't have a fear of God inside of you and you are willing to pull a trigger and kill however many people around as you have. There is a big issue with that, man. In this nation I feel like we have to start considering the death penalty for these mass shooters, man. Because you're just taking people's lives. You are killing kids and babies.

I think we have to really sit back, and for once look at root cause, and stop trying to just look at everything from the surface. Let's get to the bottom of this problem, Lawrence, and let's get families back together man, let's get the word of God back in our schools, man.
