This time Obama did better.
He said that most were anger you young men and that you couldn't restrict all of them. That there's many young angers men and most of them don't kill people, that their many mentality ill people and most are not violent. Trying to identify which person is going to act out is impossible so controlling access to guns is the solution but not until politics change. ( I'm paraphrasing here) He did much better today. Yesterday I think he was really upset but still he shoulda know better than that. Still I admire the man for going though what he's gone though with congress with more grace than most people would have.

Grrrr, that so ticks me off. As your own president said there are millions of angry young men with mental illness in the world who DON'T do this.
There are places in the world with as much violence as the USA but, again as your president pointed out, they don't have guns to do it with. I looked up the stats for the USA 2015 a bit earlier today: number of gun deaths: 39,555 number of multiple shootings: 294 and number of terrorist incidents: 1 It bothers me so much because people jump to the conclusion of mental illness (or religion that matter). One thing I would like to point out is that obviously there is a problem with the gun laws if a mentally ill person [is] able to amass such a hoarde of weapons. |

I am a NRA instructor working with Boy Scouts for at least the last 12 years ... the major push for the NRA is teaching safety and being responsible .. most of us do want some type of gun control ... however the very real fear is that once we start going that way the government and the very liberal such as Bloomberg will never stop until the entire country is disarmed .... I know my history ... that is exactly what Hitler did in Germany to make the way smooth for him becoming a dictator ... laugh if you want ... it is a reasonable fear .... do you really trust this or any government ... that is why the founding fathers put the second amendment in there ... they knew first hand what the king of England was capable of ... but of course I have a MI so what do I know ....
