Resisting the Rhetorical Sinkhole to End to Mass Shootings

The Brian Lehrer Show | Dec 3, 2015

President Obama made a statement this morning in response to the mass shooting in San Bernardino, California, saying it's "possible" it was terror-related but ultimately the motive has not been identified. You can hear his short statement above.

At about 6:15 in, Richard Aborn, president of the Citizens Crime Commission and former assistant DA, explains why this is a "watershed moment" for gun legislation.

Aborn says now is the time for people who support gun control to get angry, get determined, and make a political statement: "Enough."
