LaBolt stressed that the foundation, which has assets of about $935 million, doesn’t take “detailed policy positions,” but rather uses its grants to “fuel a dialogue about how to address public policy issues like reducing gun violence.”

Sure. All they wanted was to "fuel a dialog". So how many grants did they give to pro-gun groups?

They wanted to fuel the dialog and fund the Pro-Gun groups but the Pro-Gun groups were so “bitter” about the exchange as they were “clinging” onto guns at the time. Ha ha, perhaps Obama noticed that the NRA has a ton of members in Pennsylvania, maybe that is why he has tried to call “a great compromise”.

No word on the last debate about the causes of young people joining gangs, just how illegal guns suddenly get into the hands of them and corrupt them. Lord of the Rings anyone?
