We can’t tolerate this anymore. These tragedies must end. And to end them, we must change.

If there’s even one step we can take to save another child or another parent or another town from the grief that’s visited Tucson and Aurora and Oak Creek and Newtown and communities from Columbine to Blacksburg before that, then surely we have an obligation to try.

In the coming weeks, I’ll use whatever power this office holds...

Are we really prepared to say that we’re powerless in the face of such carnage, that the politics are too hard?

Are we prepared to say that such violence visited on our children year after year after year is somehow the price of our freedom?
Wow the media is really going crazy with new gun control hysteria.

I stopped in my two local gun dealer's stores and dropped off some NCPHA cards today.

They were packed full of customers. I could hardly get in. One had an on-duty cop sitting in his squad car across the street, watching.

What do you think Obama will try first? An executive order banning Bushmasters? All AR-style rifles? Multi-capacity magazines?

How about a large federal surcharge on ammo, say a buck a round?

Where will it stop? Great Britain forced all citizens to turn in their firearms, can Obama do that to us?

I sense a big change coming. He's already moved us away from our Founder's vision for our great country, towards socialism.

Now with the political capital he's banked, along with the international outcry over our "rabid gun-crazed society" (have you read some of the foreign press?), will he use this tragedy to "fundamentally transform America?"
