$22 million more for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which inspects federally licensed firearms dealers.

Which accounted for zero mass shootings.

What a lying sack of poop this guy ios.

This funding is way too low for what bo wants to do.

I see it as a small amount that rinos could vote for, sensible you know, but is a place holder for ‘the pen’ to add to.

This would be the last thing that such monies would be used for. More lies. Obama/Holder already take as much of our money as they want to attack the Second Amendment and our rights.

Fast and Furious anyone??

Buy more guns for good guys to carry in public. That would actually work.

C’mon, you gotta understand.

The gummint’s idea of preventing mass shootings is to disarm the public.

That way, only the gummint can conduct mass shootings. Of course, such would be completely legal and would have the blessing of our benevolent dictator Barraq Hussein 0dunga and the head of his SS, Eric “Heinrich Himmler” Holder.

Yeah, that’ll do it.

We have mass shootings because we have a very unhappy society and way too many crazy people running around loose. They’re just expressing their right to be crazy, remember (a big thing in the 1970s, which is why we had psychotics cutting off their grandmother’s head before going on a mass killing spree with a knife, etc.).

…...And just when I thought the resident could not get more stupid than he has already shown us he is, he comes up with this great idea.

Now if he can only get every state to pass a law against mass murdering, he will probably be be elected president for life…….or something.

I’d like to use that money to check the backgrounds of people who become president. They (he) have the power to conduct some EXTREME mass shootings, here or elsewhere.

Well, he, I mean CNN came out with the headline that military has the greatest amount of mentally deranged people; and Liam neeson’s latest film non stop clearly portrays the villian to be the military deranged mass murderer, and the helpful guardian angel type as the Muslim, so maybe he’ll just make the short cut now - sooner than later
And take the money from the military

Maybe Paul Ryan can advise him while he’s pretending to be critical

...advance an issue that rose to the top of the national agenda...

Who's national agenda? Certainly not my national agenda. Certainly not the national agenda of most citizens.

It's the national agenda of Yahoo Finance, and some other idiots without a clue.

It’s not about preventing mass shootings. It’s about “gun control.” Nothing less.

They never talk about taking guns from violent criminals. Only from honest, non-violent normal people.

The easiest and most effective way to end mass shootings is to eliminate disarmed victim zones aka gun-free zones. It's where where virtually all mass shootings occur.

How about some money to keep crazy people in institutions so they don't hurt themselves and other people? (Or are crazy people such a large Democrat voting bloc that Obama doesn't dare?)

Preventing mass shootings is easy.

1. Fund the Civilian Marksmanship Program (done).

2. Repeal all laws that infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearl_High_School_shooting Pearl High School’s assistant band director, Jeff Cannon, was standing five feet away from Dew when she was fatally shot. Woodham went on to wound seven others. The school’s assistant principal, Joel Myrick, retrieved a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol from his truck and, spotting him near the parking lot, shouted for Woodham to stop.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appalachian_School_of_Law_shooting Three people were killed and three others were wounded when a former student, 43-year-old Nigerian immigrant Peter Odighizuwa, opened fire in the school with a handgun. When Odighizuwa left the building where the shooting took place, he was approached by two students with personal firearms and one unarmed student.

http://www.nraila.org/gun-laws/armed-citizen/1996/the-chronicle,-muskegon,-mi,-82395.aspx?s=%22%27All+In!%27%22&st=&ps= Store owner Clare Cooper was returning behind the counter after showing three of the four conspirators some jewelry, when one of the group pulled out a gun and shot him four times in the back. Stumbling for the safety of his bullet-proof glass-encased counter, Cooper managed to grab his shotgun and fire as the suspects fled.

http://blutube.policeone.com/police-training-videos/935831023001-jeanne-assam-and-the-new-life-church-shooting/ On December 9, 2007 a 24-year-old gunman named Matthew Murray launched a brutal assault on the parishioners of the New Life Church in Colorado Springs (Colo.) that left two innocent victims dead. Because of the quick actions of a former police officer from Minnesota named Jeanne Assam, that number could easily have been much, much higher.

http://www.keepandbeararms.com/information/XcIBViewItem.asp?ID=1446 Late at night on Tuesday, December 17, two men armed with recently-stolen pistols herded 20 customers and employees of a Shoney’s restaurant in Anniston, Ala., into the walk-in refrigerator, and locked it. Continuing to hold the manager at gunpoint, the men began robbing the restaurant. Then one of the robbers found a customer who had hidden under a table and pulled a gun on him. The customer, Thomas Glenn Terry, legally armed with a .45 semi-automatic pistol, fired five shots into that robber’s chest and abdomen, killing him instantly. The other robber, who was holding the manager at gunpoint, opened fire on Terry and grazed him. Terry returned fire, hitting the second robber several times and wounding him critically.

There are MANY others, but the point is clear. Repeal gun laws to save lives in mass shootings. When seconds count, the police are minutes away, but civilians are already there.
