‘We cannot accept this carnage as the price of freedom,’ Obama said, as he stood before gun control activists, including the families of Newtown victims.
Obama was introduced by Mark Barden, the managing director of Sandy Hook Promise. Barden’s son Daniel was killed in the Dec. 14, 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Also on stage with Obama today: Jimmy Greene, the father of Ana Grace, another child murdered in the Newtown massacre.
‘We do not have to accept this carnage as the price of freedom,’ Obama said, as he stood before gun control activists, including former representative Gabby Giffords, who was shot point blank five years ago this week and survived.
