Sister of Newtown victim makes gun-control plea in letter to Obama (Innocent but Ignorant Child)
Yahoo News ^ | 12/20/2012 | Yahoo News

Natalie's letter, written to President Barack Obama and read by Anderson Cooper on air, voiced her clear and thoughtful belief that guns did not belong in the hands of most civilians:

My name is Natalie Barden and I wanted to tell the president that only police officers and the military should get guns. If people want to do it as a sport than they could go to a shooting range and the guns would not be able to leave there.

One of the best comments on the Yahoo news story was: "Unfortunately, the only people that would then have guns would be the Police, the Military and the criminals."



I hope this kid is taught or learns the true meaning of the 2nd Amendment. The Government is not your friend.

That child did not compose that text. She was taking dictation.

Rather than instruct and enlighten children, progressives deliberately let themselves be schooled by them.

There are no real adults at the liberal's table.

Looks like there’s no minimum age requirement to be a useful idiot.

Anyone that has little kids knows that this girl did NOT write this letter. I have an 8 year old cousin(Soon to be 9 yrs old) on the honor roll and he can’t write like this. So either it was written for her or she was told what to say. Why am I so cynical, because the words that she supposedly uses I already heard, from left wing media people..its practically word for word

To whoever it is that actually wrote the letter you give special concern for hunting, but what if I want to use guns to defend myself? Or will special ranges be made available for me to be relatively safe for as long as I stay? What about everywhere else, where I’m exposed? Oh yeah, we already have those. They’re called gun free zones.

This sounds horrible but it is reality and it's what the little children aren't told.

P.S. Mr. Obama....It's okay to kill unborn babies though because you said so and they don't use a gun.

“Innocent but Ignorant Child”

You were referring to obama, right?

Suzanna Hupp in front of congressional committee about the Texas restaurant “Luby’s massacre” and Chucky Schumer in attendance. She knows what the 2nd Amendment is all about.

She should also write:

“When you smuggle thousands of machine-guns to your Sinaloa Cartel partners, that undermines gun control....”

300 Mexicans killed confirmed, though probably the number is really in the THOUSANDS. AND 2 US officers killed, so far. Also a helicopter shot down, and a casino burned.

So if she wrote this letter to Barry Django, how the hell did the CNN fairy get his dirty paws on it?

I presume that either her parents or one of her teachers dictated this to the poor kid. Pretty lousy using a kid for political purposes, especially one who has just lost her brother. But I’ll refrain from saying anything more, since the parents and teachers are probably also in a pretty bad way.

But who gave the letter to Anderson Cooper? Barry? Disgusting to play politics over the bodies of children.

Anderson Cooper exploits a grieving child.
