Barack Obama: Guns Are Our Shared Responsibility

I found this article from the New York Times magazine.

This article is about Obamas opinion on  the epidemic of gun violence in our country as a crisis.

“A national crisis like this demands a national response” Obama said. Reducing gun violence yes, will be hard. It’s clear that common-sense gun using won’t happen during this Congress. and gun violence still goes on as obama stays in presidency. Still, there are steps we can take now to save lives. And everybody at every level of government, in the private sector and as citizens — have to do their part. Everybody has to do their part and have a responsibility.

Obama says that,Even as he continues to take every action possible as president, he will also take every action he can as a citizen. He will not campaign for, vote for or support any candidate, even in his own party, who does not support common-sense gun reform. And if the 90 percent of americans who do support common-sense gun reforms join him, he will elect the leadership we deserve.

I agree with Obama as we all need to have leadership and commonsense while using guns. We all have a right to use and own guns, and that right should not be taken away from us.
