Address Gun Violence in Cities: Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.

That is how they want to address violence in cities. What about the rest of us? Why do we have to suffer for the crimes of those in cities?

He should address bank robberies too, by making it illegal to possess cash.

He intends to. It's called taxation. If you have cash, then you're making more money then you need, so it should be given to someone who needs it more than you do. We've got to share the wealth, don't you know.
