President Obama proposed a sweeping gun control agenda this week to curb what he called “the epidemic of gun violence in this country,” according to The Washington Post.
Groton residents reacted to the president's proposal on Thursday, or voiced their thoughts on gun control in general in the wake of the shootings in Newtown.
The president's efforts are expected to face a divided Congress, with many Republicans condemning his plan as an attack on the right to bear arms.
