9. I fully support Obama not making this political about guns - TODAY

It's no different then when Romney decided to make Benghazi about politics soon after it happened.

Families of the victims don't want to feel like political pawns on the day they lose a loved one.

But I do hope that within a week someone points out that this problem comes down to lax gun laws in this country!
