One of the crises that we have to deal with is a crisis of law enforcement officials that are not physically capable enough to handle without taking out the gun.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We have to face the fact that meaningful gun control has to be a part of homeland security.
We need sensible gun safety measures. The federal government could do something about this; they could show up.
While different states and cities might look to different strategies for protecting public safety, we all can agree on this: we lose too many American lives to gun violence.
There are too many guns in the hands of people that shouldn't have guns. There is too much gun violence in America.
We're trying to publicize this one and make people realize that the gun industry can clean up its act and can operate in a way that can reduce the likelihood of guns killing police officers and other innocent people.
That guns do more than protect us from criminals; more importantly, they protect us from the ongoing threat of government.
For those of us who cry out for gun control, our fears cannot be eliminated as long as the country remains an armed camp in which the most troubled among us can find ways to appropriate one of the easily available weapons in all our communities.
We understand that in an open and democratic and free society, you cannot make yourself impenetrable, especially when there are more guns than there are people in the United States today.
It doesn't matter if gun violence is down. We need to get guns and bullets and automatic weapons off the streets.
If we're going to spend a lot of money to deal with the problem of 200 million guns in the country owned by 65 million gun owners, we ought to have a system which will work and catch criminals.
