Sandy Hook parent pleads for stricter gun legislation in Obama's weekly address

Weekly Address: Sandy Hook Victim's Mother Calls for Commonsense Gun Responsibility Reforms



snippet:

Sometimes, I close my eyes and all I can remember is that awful day waiting at the Sandy Hook Volunteer Firehouse for the boy who would never come home – the same firehouse that was home to Ben’s Tiger Scout Den 6. But other times, I feel Ben’s presence filling me with courage for what I have to do – for him and all the others taken from us so violently and too soon.
