Obama exploring executive order on gun control
January 10, 2013
In the wake of frequent shootout incidents that have resulted in several deaths in the recent past, the US government is looking into the possibility of issuing an executive order on gun control.
"The President is going to act. There is executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet, but we are compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the Cabinet members," Vice President Joe Biden said on Wednesday.
He, however, also called for legislative action to control the gun menace.
