President Obama breaks down over gun control (full speech)

[@michellelamarand5724]

I'm a gun owner and a strong supporter of the Constitution. The second Amendment says "Shall not be infringed ". I knew that I would have to pass a background check without question when I went to buy my pistol. It took less than an hour. And they asked if I wanted to buy two. I have no problem with background checks. Responsible gun owners should make sure children do not have access to their firearms. We absolutly need to find a balance. I spent the better part of my life in Detroit. Alright President Obama, I'll give you this one. Just please don't start banning firearms and I will be with you on this one.

[@markyboyb32ify]

+Michelle Lamarand Can i ask you for what reason did you feel the need to buy a pistol? I'm not saying its wrong im just curious as im from UK and want to understand the American mindset.

[@michellelamarand5724]

+Mark Hall sure you can ask. I'm a female and I've been in some unpleasant situations with men who were physically stronger then me. They are lighter than Law enforcement Officers and available 24/7 at a seconds notice. Many men here have guns and bad intentions. I have one with good intentions. Hope to never need it for anything more than target shooting.

[@markyboyb32ify]

+Michelle Lamarand srry to hear about the bad situations you have been in. if it's just for protection then that's completely understandable. Good luck to you I hope you never have to use it .

[@michellelamarand5724]

+Mark Hall Thank you Mark. Me too.

[@tombrown998]

+Mark Hall well that's easy and technically we have the UK to thank for it. the whole reason it's still and will always be legal to own guns in America is the continuous fight against tyranny. to ensure not only that we as Americans can defend our selves and country from enemies but also to keep our Constitutional Republic from becoming a dictatorship. and to if need be overthrow our government if it violates our rights and start over. our forefathers new that government was simply the lesser evil and we one day may need to give those who we elect a reality check as to who's really in charge over here

[@mangokane11]

Vote For who? POTUS? Don't answer. It doesn't matter... For many reasons. FIRST things first. Votes must have equal value no matter where you are in the country. My vote is worth more than the majority of voters in this country. That's not equal. It's unfair and does my vote REALLY have more value?. Technically, yes. Collectively NO. Think on that. It's a deceptive process In the electoral college. So just with this one aspect out of MANY, on why voting for potus doesn't matter... Should bring skepticism and scrutiny of our voting system. Which I think should lead to more skepticism scrutiny on anything that is connected to just this one aspect that is a part of our voting process. That basically, is everything government. Or maybe I'm just trippin! Damn right I am.
