Todays tragedy brought to mind this quote....
"You cannot address crime prevention without getting rid of assault weapons and handguns...I consider them a threat to national security, and I will go door to door if I have to, but I'm gonna convince Americans that I'm right, and I'm gonna get the guns."
I would give anything to hear a President say that...unfortunately, only in Hollywood does that President exist.
