He has tried like hell to get the gun laws tightened up, but the rich and powerful gun lobby have too many politicians under their control..
Tens of thousands killed in the USA every year with guns...We don't have anything like the problem they have..
Random The President wife is usually called the first lady. If Clinton wins will mucky Bill be known as the first man/gent?
look at the size of the population, in comparison to the UK, we also have a lot of gun deaths in the uk, but in context to europe, guns are banned here but the Moroccan mafia here kill loads each year, assassinations by gangs here are rife, makes me want to arm myself.
‘Hundreds of Dutch Moroccans involved in gangland killings’ (update) Society July 31, 2014 Hundreds of Dutch Moroccan youths are involved in at least six gangland killings in the Netherlands and Antwerp as well as a string of violent robberies, not just a few dozen as thought earlier, the Volkskrant reports on Thursday. The group includes drugs dealers, gunmen and ‘facilitators’ who are all linked to each other and live in both the Netherlands and Morocco, the paper quotes Amsterdam detectives as saying. The paper bases its claims on a police investigation into a string of gangland killings which began in 2012. The robberies take place in the Netherlands and then the perpetrators move to Morocco which does not deport its nationals, the paper says. The money they earn through their crime spree is also taken out of the country. Tangiers Detectives claim between 25% and 33% of the new appartments under construction in Tangiers are funded with criminal proceeds. Dutch detectives visit Morocco on a weekly basis as part of their investigations and have so far sequestrated property and other possessions totalling some €100m, the paper says. The public prosecution department has now signed an agreement with the Moroccan authorities to make it easier to prosecute people suspected of crimes in the Netherlands under Moroccan law – with the exception of the death penalty. Last week, Hamza B, suspected of a double shooting in Amsterdam in December 2012, became the first person to go on trial in Morocco under the new agreement. Two other suspects are being tried in the Netherlands. The killing is said to be part of a dispute centering on 200 kilos of cocaine. The public prosecution department issued a statement on Thursday afternoon stating the treaty with Morocco was signed in December 2012 and that the justice ministry not the public prosecutors were responsible.

We do not have a lot of gun deaths at all mate..Even taking the difference of population into account there is no comparison...Off hand I believe you are something like 20 times more likely to be the victim of a gun related death in the USA than you are in the UK..
It is because they are backed up with vast resources from many very wealthy people including Trump..They in turn put lots of financial assistance to state senators in order to get them elected and threaten to withdraw this support if they back the tightening of the gun laws..
burglaries in the netherlands perpetrated by Moroccans are rife , if you try and stop them they will kill you, you need to be able to protect yourself they are armed
an assumption on your part, its in their constitution , the right to bear arms. and Americans will defend that right , against do goody liberals
while Clinton wants to meddle, if an armed robber came in my shop i want the right to shoot him dead him or me, why should he get what he wants by threatening me, **** that fight back against tyranny.
And that's why an average of 33,000 people are shot dead in the USA every year.. It is still extremely rare for anyone to get shot in an armed robbery in the UK. I have just had a quick look at the Netherlands gun deaths, and although it is over twice the rate of the UK per person, it is still tiny in comparison to the USA..
