Have a public debate with National Rifle Association chief executive Wayne LaPierre about the new gun control proposals

Created by E.K. on January 23, 2013

We signing this petition plead for President Obama to have a public debate with NRA chief executive Wayne LaPierre about the new gun control proposals. We request there be fact-checkers present to verify claims made by both parties. Please discuss:

-Evaluation of the new gun control proposals with debate as to their efficacy and constitutionality
-Why nothing in the proposals would allow the government to take guns from law-abiding citizens
-Restrictions and rules that the government already has in place for firearms, such as fully automatic weapons and rocket launchers, and why the Second Amendment doesn't preclude these restrictions
-Why the Second Amendment does not nullify the government's authority to regulate firearms as it deems necessary for the safety and security of the People.
