It is time to do something: Obama on gun violence

February 05, 2013 08:34

Hitting the road once again in his trademark style, US President Barack Obama has said it is "time to do something" to prevent the kind of deadly shooting incidents that has been happening in the country.

"We don't have to agree on everything to agree it's time to do something. That's my main message here today. And each of us has a role to play," Obama said in his address to a public meeting in Minneapolis on Monday.

Obama has always hit the road and addressed people to garner support for his view point whenever he has been opposed by the Congress or when he hits a road block at the Hill.
