I do believe that we should keep guns out of the hands of terrorists, would-be terrorists, and a lot of other people.

In my opinion, the only people who should have handguns are the police.

Nobody would think that anybody on a terror watch list should have a gun, right?

People should not be in a position where their children have access to weapons and ammunition.

Would-be terrorists cannot so much as board a plane without a thorough screening, yet we give them nearly unfettered access to very dangerous weapons.

I truly believe that firearms in the hands of law abiding citizen's makes our families and our communities more safe, not less safe.

Arguments that we will never stop all shootings by restricting access to such weapons fails to account for our strong and common desire at least to stop many of them - or any of them.

Obviously, we think it's important to make sure that firearms do not get in the hands of people who are criminals, convicted felons or adjudicated as mentally ill.

I think a lot of people don't realize that our military that defends our freedoms abroad, when they come home to the military base, are not allowed to carry weapons.
