RICK SANTORUM (CNN CONTRIBUTOR): I agree, the shooting is horrible, it's a tragedy, but Van, there's shootings going on every single day. Whether they're vigilantes or whether they're gangs -- and the reality is it's a horrible situation that we have to deal with as a country. But I don't think you sort of stop the convention --
VAN JONES (CNN CONTRIBUTOR): I see it differently.
SANTORUM: -- and focus on something like that.
