Just watched the President talk about the gun-control issue. Look, to me, without getting into the nitty-gritty of the 2nd amendment, they seem like "reasonable" measures.
For example, stronger background checks is a no-brainer. If you're ok, you have nothing to worry about. If you're a criminal, it should be hard if not impossible for you to get a gun.

This one I find interesting: Providing resources to allow schools to hire 1,000 "school resource officers"
Isn't this what the NRA sorta proposed?
In any event. his "900 murders this month and will only increase" assertion can be disputed. I doubt that stat is accurate.
Also, I could do without the use of kids to promote policy action. It's borderline shameless. Disgusting really. The NRA is under attack for its own ads on using the President's children.
The left hated it when Bush did it with Iraqi veterans, so why should it be any different here? In fact, using children is an emotional appeal that should be off limits.
Finally, he asserted no one should be allowed to sell guns to criminals. Oh. You mean like Fast & Furious?
Unreal.
I personally don't think much will come with this but it is what it is. The President has spoken.
