"Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly launch battle against gun lobby: No more 'fear'

By Josh Levs, CNN

updated 9:25 AM EST, Tue January 8, 2013

Giffords votes for successor in election

(CNN) -- Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly have launched what they hope will mark a new era in the battle over gun rights in America.

On the second anniversary of a mass shooting in Arizona that wounded Giffords and killed six others, the couple launched a political action committee, Americans for Responsible Solutions, along with a website calling for contributions to help "encourage elected officials to stand up for solutions to prevent gun violence and protect responsible gun ownership."

In an op-ed in USA Today, the two make their goal clear: to counter the influence of the gun lobby.

"Special interests purporting to represent gun owners but really advancing the interests of an ideological fringe have used big money and influence to cow Congress into submission," they write.

"Rather than working to find the balance between our rights and the regulation of a dangerous product, these groups have cast simple protections for our communities as existential threats to individual liberties. Rather than conducting a dialogue, they threaten those who divert from their orthodoxy with political extinction."

Emphasizing that they support the Second Amendment and own two guns themselves, Giffords and Kelly call for "laws to require responsible gun ownership and reduce gun violence."

"Until now, the gun lobby's political contributions, advertising and lobbying have dwarfed spending from anti-gun violence groups. No longer. With Americans for Responsible Solutions engaging millions of people about ways to reduce gun violence and funding political activity nationwide, legislators will no longer have reason to fear the gun lobby."

"America has seen an astounding 11 mass shootings since a madman used a semiautomatic pistol with an extended ammunition clip to shoot me and kill six others," Giffords writes.

"This country is known for using its determination and ingenuity to solve problems, big and small... But when it comes to protecting our communities from gun violence, we're not even trying — and for the worst of reasons."

Giffords and Kelly have spoken out in the wake of last month's slaughter in Newtown, Connecticut, that left 27 people dead, 26 of them at Sandy Hook Elementary School -- including 20 children.

Giffords wrote on Facebook at the time, "As we mourn, we must sound a call for our leaders to stand up and do what is right. This time our response must consist of more than regret, sorrow, and condolence. The children of Sandy Hook Elementary School and all victims of gun violence deserve leaders who have the courage to participate in a meaningful discussion about our gun laws -- and how they can be reformed and better enforced to prevent gun violence and death in America. This can no longer wait."

Giffords and Kelly visited Newtown last week. They met with local and state leaders to discuss gun control legislation, mental health identification and treatment, and "concerns for the erosion of our societal values such that we are increasingly desensitized to violence," according to Newtown First Selectman Pat Llodra.

That visit also highlighted the intense political concerns surrounding such issues.

Connecticut State Rep. DebraLee Hovey, the state's assistant Republican leader, posted a note on her Facebook page saying, "Gabby Gifford stay out of my towns!"

Hovey later issued a statement apologizing, saying, "Our community has struggled greatly through this tragedy, and we are all very sensitive to the potential for this event to be exploited for political purposes. This is what I wish to avoid." The statement added that Hovey has advocated for a dialogue on mental health issues, school safety and gun control.

Kelly, a former captain in the U.S. Navy and NASA astronaut, also responded publicly in the wake of the Newtown shootings.

On his Facebook page, he took on the National Rifle Association -- the central pro-gun rights lobby -- after a news conference by a top NRA official about the Newtown tragedy triggered widespread anger.

Kelly wrote that the NRA's response was "defiant and delayed," and that the organization "chose narrow partisan concerns over the safety of our families and communities."

The NRA has argued that it is committed to keeping people protected, and that a focus on stricter gun control is misguided.

"If it's crazy to call for putting police and armed security in our schools to protect our children, then call me crazy," NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre said of the anger following his initial news conference.

NRA President David Keene later told CNN the group supports schools choosing whether they want armed guards.

LaPierre made clear his group believes that more guns, not fewer, are necessary for security. "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun," he said.

Kelly said he knows from personal experience that that's not the case.

The day Jared Loughner shot Giffords and 18 other people at a public event in Tucson, there was such a "good guy," Kelly argued in an interview with ABC.

A man came out "of the store next door and nearly shot the man who took down Jared Loughner," Kelly said. "The one who eventually wrestled (Loughner) to the ground was almost killed himself by a good guy with a gun, so I don't really buy that argument."

Giffords and Kelly want to require comprehensive background checks for private sales of firearms, ABC reported. And Kelly said he does not believe an extended magazine is needed for those who have guns for sport.

Gunmen have used high-capacity weapons in numerous shootings, including one at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, and Newtown, where gunman Adam Lanza had four weapons.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, is pushing legislation to reinstate a ban on assault weapons.

A former Marine's passionate disagreement with Feinstein has garnered attention online.

"I own the guns I own because I acknowledge mankind's shortcomings instead of pretending like they don't exist," Joshua Boston wrote in a CNN iReport. "There are evil men in this world and there just may be a time when I need to do the unthinkable to protect me or my family."

Giffords' remarkable recovery after being shot in the head has inspired many across the political spectrum. She told ABC she's doing physical therapy, yoga, and speech therapy, and working with a service dog. She has also been able to begin some outdoor activities.

The tragedy two years ago thrust her and her husband into a new kind of spotlight. Tuesday marks a moment in which they are turning all that focus and attention -- as well as their passionate calls for stricter gun control -- into a political movement.

"We can't be naive about what it will take to achieve the most common-sense solutions," they wrote in their op-ed. "We can't just hope that the last shooting tragedy will prevent the next. Achieving reforms to reduce gun violence and prevent mass shootings will mean matching gun lobbyists in their reach and resources."

"We have experienced too much death and hurt to remain idle. Our response to the Newtown massacre must consist of more than regret, sorrow and condolence. The children of Sandy Hook Elementary School and all victims of gun violence deserve fellow citizens and leaders who have the will to prevent gun violence in the future."

"Biden, Meeting Gun Control Advocates, Vows Action

Doug Mills/The New York Times

Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.

By MICHAEL D. SHEAR

Published: January 9, 2013

WASHINGTON — President Obama is planning a comprehensive effort to pass legislation and use executive orders to prevent gun violence, representatives of about a dozen gun control organizations were told Wednesday at a White House meeting.

“The president and I are determined to take action. This is not an exercise in photo opportunities,” Vice President Joseph R. Biden said as photographers were given a chance to take pictures before the closed-door meeting.

During the two-hour meeting, Mr. Biden and Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. vowed to move swiftly.

“Clearly they are not talking about just having a conversation with the American people,” said John Feinblatt, who attended the meeting on behalf of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, an outspoken advocate for greater gun control measures.

Mr. Feinblatt, a top aide to Mr. Bloomberg, said Mr. Biden promised both a “legislative plan that could be achieved and a plan for executive actions.”

“Both those things are going to be pursued,” he said.

The meeting was part of Mr. Biden’s effort to develop proposals for Mr. Obama and Congress in the wake of the mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., last month. A panel led by Mr. Biden is scheduled to offer recommendations this month.

Offering a glimpse of the approach that he might take, Mr. Biden hinted that his group was not likely to recommend an all-or-nothing approach to the issue of gun violence.

“We are not going to get caught up in the notion unless we can do everything, we’re not going to do anything,” Mr. Biden said.

Among those at the White House were representatives of the Brady Campaign to End Gun Violence, Mayors Against Illegal Guns, States United to Prevent Gun Violence and several state gun control organizations.

“I want to hear about your experiences,” Mr. Biden, sitting next to Mr. Holder, said to the group. “I’m convinced that we can affect the well-being of millions of Americans and take thousands of people out of harm’s way if we act responsibly.”

Mr. Feinblatt said the general consensus among the representatives of advocacy organizations at the meeting was to seek broad changes to law that could include an assault weapons ban, limits on high-capacity magazines for ammunition, better enforcement measures, a gun-trafficking statute and improved data for background checks.

He said the advocates also pushed for executive actions that would not require Congressional approval, including new efforts by the Justice Department to prosecute people who lie on their background checks.

Mr. Feinblatt said that some of the people in the meeting told personal stories of grief that reminded the others around the table that “this is not some abstract exercise.”

Mr. Biden made it clear that doing nothing about gun violence was not an option under consideration. But he also said that his group would meet with gun owners and gun rights groups — including the National Rifle Association — that oppose significant new gun restrictions.

“I’ve also invited the gun owners and the N.R.A. to come and make their case as well,” Mr. Biden said. “We are reaching out to all parties on whatever side of this debate that you fall.”

He added: “But the president is going to act. There is executive action that can be taken. We haven’t decided what that is yet.”

In addition to the N.R.A., representatives from Walmart, whose stores are the largest seller of guns in the country, will also attend a meeting with the vice president on Thursday.

A spokesman for the company initially told The Wall Street Journal that Walmart would not be sending anyone to the meeting. But David Tovar, the vice president for corporate communications, reversed himself Wednesday morning.

“We underestimated the expectation to attend the meeting on Thursday in person, so we are sending an appropriate representative to participate,” Mr. Tovar said in a statement. “We take this issue very seriously and are committed to staying engaged in this discussion as the administration and Congress work toward a consensus on the right path forward.” "
