Fact: There is nothing in the current public discourse (well, nothing in the serious public discourse, anyway) that even hints at some nefarious government entity intent on coming to 'take your guns'.
Sensible people discussing common sense methods for dealing with the issues of mass violence have come nowhere near suggesting any kind of ban on handguns, rifles, nor shotguns. Any suggestion to the contrary is -- particularly to the gun-rights folks -- particularly specious, because it is these same folks and their supporters who are the only ones promoting the myth that the government seeks to completely disarm US citizens.

Yeah you're right. It came from much deeper down. Try the gut.
He's reading his comments from the computer screen. If my daughter died I wouldn't need to do that,,,I would be in their face.
This is set-up and a joke.

Hes using this tragedy to further his own goals. Can't even read his "prepared" speech without messing it up. This is not a talk from the heart.

My God people...he is using this tragedy to flaunt his hate for politicians and his anti-gun-ban stance.
Just listen to how he is talking down to the people hes addressing. This has absolutely nothing to do with the death of his child, its a personal vendetta hes waging here.

so by your comments every time Obama(or any politician/elected offical) reads a teleprompter he is not speaking from the heart and automatically an idiot?
star and flag op day by day its becoming more clear lawful gun owners will not comply with unjust registration and that the attack on the second amendment will fail as spectacularly!
as we had all hoped the balance is shifting and we are being heard and we shall not be infringed dispite what the anti gunners would have us believe.
