This article is written about the NRA response to Obama's call for more gun control recently. It is a well written letter that basically tells Obama that the guns are not the problem the mental health system and criminals are. The NRA proposed to Obama more strict punishments for those that do break the current laws.
The NRA also calls for an immediate end to the ATFs Mexican Gunrunner operation which let thousands of guns cross the border to make it to cartel hands. INTENTIONALLY...
Basically the NRA is addressing the issues that need to be addressed and hopefully Obama listens. More background checks are not going to matter if you constantly let violent criminals walk. They get their guns from each other.
This is the letter:

I urge my readers to read it and email the Obama administration to urge him to follow the direction of the NRA letter. This would be a good bipartisan solution (that could actually pass in the house) and would likely make everyone happy... Except for criminals.
Here is the email form to contact the Obama administration. Be polite and courteous regardless of what you think of his policies. We do not want to give them more reasons to label gun owners as toothless yokels.
