I admire Obama for showing respect for slain police officers and trying to build inter-racial solidarity, but his comments on guns are sometimes out of line, if not ludicrous (see link).
It is illegal under federal law and most, if not all state laws, for anyone under 18 to purchase a handgun. Background checks already take care of much of this problem. No one has come up with a workable solution to stop the black market or gun-lending for crime. These are already crimes
The NRA doesn't use government money to defend people's 2A right. So the misnomered "gun violence" researchers should be funded through their own private advocacy group(s).
