Obama Wept As He Reflected On The Children Killed During The 2012 Massacre by kodded(m): 11:30am On Jan 16, 2016
President Obama wept on Tuesday as he reflected on
the children killed during the 2012 massacre at Sandy
Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Announcing new executive actions on guns in the
East Room, the president paused and wiped away
tears when he spoke about first graders who were
shot and killed at the Connecticut school.

“Our right to peaceful assembly, that right was
robbed of moviegoers in Aurora … and from first
graders in Newtown. First graders,” Obama said.
“Every time I think about those kids, it gets me
mad,” he added. “And by the way, it happens on the
streets of Chicago every day.”
Obama delivered a dramatic performance in rolling
out unilateral measures to curb gun violence, which
he has called the most frustrating issue of his
presidency.
Dozens of gun-control activists and families of gun
victims attended the White House event, serving as a
reminder of the mass shootings that have cast a
cloud over Obama's time in office.
"Too many," Obama said of the shootings.
Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), who
survived a gunshot wound to the head during a 2011
shooting in Tucson, was in the audience. The
president was introduced by Mark Barden, managing
director of Sandy Hook Promise, who lost his son in
the Newtown shooting.
