New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said President Barack Obama has spent his first term avoiding the gun control debate, as he continued to press Obama and presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney on the issue following Friday's mass shooting in Colorado.
With the nations latest shooting massacre came the latest calls by gun-control advocates for tougher laws. But those views, once shared by most Americans, drew little reaction on Friday from a country and its political leaders whose sentiments have shifted dramatically over the past two decades.
As the country continued to mourn in the wake of last weeks Colorado shooting  and President Obama planning to visit victims families on Sunday  lawmakers reignited debates about whether stricter gun control laws would have prevented the movie theater massacre that left a dozen dead.
