[QUOTE="BallisticBiker, post: 2048426, member: 7914"] Not according to this: [URL="http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/white-house-weighs-broad-gun-control-agenda-in-wake-of-newtown-shootings/2013/01/05/d281efe0-5682-11e2-bf3e-76c0a789346f_print.html"]http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/white-house-weighs-broad-gun-control-agenda-in-wake-of-newtown-shootings/2013/01/05/d281efe0-5682-11e2-bf3e-76c0a789346f_print.html[/URL] [B]Timing is imperative[/B] Obamas advisers have calculated that the longer they wait, the more distance there is from the Newtown massacre and the greater the risk that the bipartisan political will to tackle gun violence will dissipate. This is not something that I will be putting off, Obama said on NBCs Meet the Press in an interview broadcast last Sunday. At the White House meeting, Stanek said, the vice president indicated that there was a very short timeline for him to get back to the president with his recommendations because the American public has a short memory. Already, three weeks after the Newtown shooting, gun-control advocates are growing impatient with a legislative process that is just beginning. As we get involved in these ad nauseam debates over the Second Amendment, our children are still at risk, said Jon Adler, national president of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association. Debating is not the action verb we need to protect our children. With the start of the 113th Congress last week, several lawmakers filed bills to address gun violence. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), who co-wrote a 1994 assault-weapons ban that expired in 2004, plans to introduce legislation this month that would ban the sale or manufacture of about 120 firearms, including semiautomatic rifles and military-style handguns, as well as ammunition magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds.
