" Let us put an end to violence and to the preaching of violence. Let the Congress pass laws to bring the insane traffic in guns to a halt, as I have appealed to them time and time again to do. That will not, in itself, end the violence, but reason and experience tell us that it will slow it down; that it will spare many innocent lives. Let us purge the hostility from our hearts and let us practice moderation with our tongues. Let us begin in the aftermath of this great tragedy to find a way to reverence life, to protect it, to extend its promise to all of our people"
Try to take away our guns, and you're dead and everyone else with you!
