The Federal Assault Weapons Ban expired in 2004. Assault Weapons are manufactured for rapidly firing at human targets from close range. It should be a top priority for the safety of Americans to re-enact the Federal Assault Weapons Ban as a positive step toward keeping our citizens safe, our law enforcement safe, and our children safe.

Gun purchase is too easy and to many times guns fall into the wrong hands. Guns and ammunition should not be sold online. The only way that anyone should have access to the purchase of a gun and/or ammunition is through a rigorous face to face sale and background scrutiny. Look at all the young lives that were lost in the elementary school shooting. How could a 20 year old get access to such a gun - easy just check online - anyone can purchase any type of gun without any type of background check. Sign this petition and ask our President to ban online gun sales.

The killings in Newtown CT today were a preventable tragedy. Assault weapons should be illegal in the United States.

We need to keep guns off the streets and away from children, there is no reason a child or a teenager should be able to get there hands on a gun...also I think there has to be metal detectors in all schools asap.Something has to be done...

How many more lives will be taken? We need GUN CONTROL! Not partial but FULL in your face GUN CONTROL! Please do something or tell us what to do! Twenty Children and 7 adults died needlessy today! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

20 children were murdered today in the United States. These children join the countless others in the United States who have been robbed of life through the barrel of a legally and easily purchased firearm. It's time to change the gun laws in this country. Please join me in writing to the President.

Our children's safety should take primacy over the unfettered access to guns that is the hallmark of this country.

50 years of isolationism has done little to improve the lives of the Cuban people. Relax the restrictions and allow Americans to travel freely to this friendly sovereign nation.

After 31 school shootings, something MUST be done to stop this from happening again. President Obama, the Congress, the NRA and Mayors against gun violence need to construct reasonable guidelines to lower the chances a tragedy like this ever happening again!

Its obvious that the NRA has crippled any useful gun laws in this country and they have politicians running scared. Gun shows are the least regulated and controlled of the gun environment Its time to regulate the gun shows.
