Erich said we shouldn't be too surprised at President Obama's quick call to use this incident to speak out against guns because this fits into something his administration has touted throughout his entire time in office. It's the idea that you should never let a tragedy go to waste. He went on to note that people have a natural, God-given right to defend themselves. Unfortunately the President wants to essentially punish law abiding people for what a few bad apples have done and extend infringements on the rights of others. This doesn't stop people from getting guns and if anything makes it difficult for good people to be able to protect themselves.
