I. I feel like TikTok just put the gun
in his hand and told him pull the trigger.
How many more children have to die because Snapchat chooses
profits over safety. I so 7 times. I
don't know of any other kids that OD'd on fentanyl
that are still here. The Social Media Victims Law
Center, it is a law firm founded for the
sole purpose of holding social media companies accountable for the
harms that they're causing children. Let's say I'm a
dealer. I can easily locate you. I'm gonna
be at the park around the corner. You can
come meet me here. It's like the platform was
built for that. I found my son's lifeless body
due to fentanyl poisoning. They have the best distribution
system in the world, and nobody has stopped.
What do you say to those parents, Mr.
Spiegel? I'm so sorry that we have not been
able to prevent these tragedies. For years because of
Section 230, the doors to this courthouse and the
entire American legal system was closed to them. These

to create a demand. Our children are the casualties
. We need to take back the power from these
companies. They created a dangerous situation and then manipulated
these kids. They know the levels of addiction,
sexual abuse. They know the levels of suicide.
They're not showing our kids what they want to see
. They're showing you what they can't look away from
. We all feel empathy for the plaintiffs and their
losses, but plaintiffs have not and indeed cannot assert
any legal theory under which SNAP would be held accountable
. These parents are going out there every day and
re-traumatizing themselves. I'll never see his face again or
hear his lap. If this can save even one
person, it'll be worth it. This is a
fight I've been training for for 30 years. All
right, let's go to war. Until my
