Guns Complicate Stances

In the state of Pennsylvania, there are about one million licensed hunters. There is also about one person killed by a gun a day in Philadelphia. 250,000 people living there are members of the National Rifle Association. This is causing Democratic candidates to withold their stance of gun control in order to keep the voters from basing their decisions on whether or not the candidates are for or against gun control (AOL News). I think that the fact that one person a day is killed by a gun in Philadelphia is absolutely ridiculous. The candidates should go ahead and state their stance because I am certain that family members and friends of those killed by guns would be in favor of the gun control and could beat out those not in favor. What do you think? Should Obama and Clinton state their stance or go with the flow?
