MILWAUKEE -- Barack Obama says the country must do "whatever it takes" to eradicate gun violence but believes in the right to bear arms.

Please go look up his votes on any gun bill in Thomas.gov ( the site to find senatorial/congressional votes). He never voted for anything pro-gun. I imagine he didn't in his home state either.

Don't believe everything you read in newspapers on the web. Use a source.

Every criminal I know applies for a handgun using background checks.

Yeah, who knows how many lives could've been saved had the NIU or VT students been allowed to carry concealed weapons.

why dont people use the example of texas more often of how guns are legal and yet ironically has one of the lowest crime rates in the nation.

Didn't Obama say that he supported a National Concealed Carry ban on guns?

I know he either said he supported one or he voted for it. Check it out.
