White House Live (@WHLive) February 04, 2013President Obama swung by Minneapolis today to talk about his super-awesome plan for reducing gun violence (we’re sure he’ll pay Chicago a visit any day now).

@TheDemocrats That's a bunch of bull. Weapons of war really! The second Amendment is about defending yourself from the government—

Thank goodness Obama's going to keep weapons of war off the streets. There are too many Hummers on the LA freeways—
