Control. He laid out his plan tuesday at the white house and as youou can see it was emotion at at times he was wiping away tears especially as he spoke about the murders of those 20 first graders at sandy hook Elementary School. Tonight is appeal is to you,you, america, the president says he wants to narrow the socalled gun show loophole on backgroundo checks. It was a town hall style meeting hosted by cnn at george masonma university. The president wants to engageena with people on both sides of the debate. Why cant your administration see that these restrictions are making it harder for me to own a gun. Its actually just making myy kids and i less safe. You have to be pretty well trained in order to fire a weapon against somebody who is assaulting you and catches you by surprise. Urpr and what is also true is theres also the possibility that thatht firearm in a home leads to a tragic accident. Cci we can debate that round or flat. But for now what i just want to focus on is that you certainly would like to make it a little harder for that asalient to have also had a gun. Heres why the president is pushing for your support. His previous gun control attempts through executive authority pretty much failed. Congress cant agree and previously blocked hisly b legislative attempts when heh wasnt using executive actionsai and those actions can be legally challenged. The nra weighed in after thehe president s announcement tuesdae saying none of his measures would have prevented the tragedies he spoke about. At his announcement, including those sandy hook murders. Tonight the nra declined toto participate in the town hall. Al. His opponents argue he is ons thin constitutional ice tryingai to water down your secondecon amendment rights. Am at least one of those opponents brought his gun with himim tonight. Marina maracco is live at george mason with reaction from bothfrm sides outside that town hall tonight. Reporter as you just saidd its an incredibly contentious and poll rising issue and as the president s motorcade arrived si did both protestors on both sides. You had those who opposed gun control and those who are inin favor of it, both of them denouncing as well as applauding the president s executive orderd and they stood out this invitent only town hall meeting separated by caution tape. It was expected on some parts to be contentious, at least verbally, although it wasnt. It was rather peaceful. On one side you have the folkshe who want to see more gun control and then on the other side those who believe it is a violation of their Second Amendment rights. Of course those were those who were holding banners and pose terse. There were clothe lines with white tshirts that had the name of each life lost at the Virginia Tech shooting and the sandy hook shooting and bothnd sides extremely emotional. Take a look. It shows that weve come a long way. We cannot go on the way we are. So we have to do something. I dont know if this is going to stop how many deaths its going to stop or how much shootings. Not just deaths. It shows that people have had enough. You cant buy a firearm online without going through a licensen dealer to pick up that weapon and go through a backgroundack check period. So all this blister and talk will do absolutely nothing tooth curb gun violence in the united states. And here in the state of sta virginia it is lawful to carry a firearm as it is lawful too openly carry. We saw at least one of the demonstrators with a gun and a holster on his belt clip. As far as the campus, however, faculty, staff and students aren notts allowed to carry weapons. E were now reporting live fromve george mason university. Marina maracco, fox5 local news. Well, in the district, police are trying to identify this mans in connection to a robbery that happened at the u street metro station tuesday night. Police say the victim fellell asleep on a train and when he woke up this t guy was tryingas rob him. If you recognize him, policeim, want to hear from you. F all right, you can expect maybe a bit of a dreary start to your friday with gray skies, a little patchy fog to start off the fog. Sue, we can see through that particular shot, but the earlier one we showed, the fog is really thick out there in somes a. Im glad to see it improved a little bit. Thats the way its going to go. There are others that look a little better, so plan a little extra time because i dont thint anyone is off the hook with this fog scenario. After we get ride of the foggy got to tell you that the rest of this week is looking a littlelok bit unsettled. Uns what were talking about for the rest of the workweek is a damp late week pattern. Were going to have areas of drizzle. Its very gray out there. As we check visibilities atli about 11 00, a mile and and quarter at dulles, a mile and a quarter at manassas. Thats a little bit of an improvement. I do think these areas will be around in the morning. Temperatures will be slow to that you. Im a lit mr. L l concerned when i look out to see 22degree reading with some fog. Og. I would watch especially inpeci these areas where you droppedou into the 20s to make sure youe dont have a little bit of patchy icing if you have some drizzle. Closer to the beltway and some of the closer in suburbs everybody stays above freezing. You can see the areas out tot ot west that well have to much what. Theres not a lot of mist showing up but we do expecto e there to be a little bit in the morning. At the bus stop, grayer andraye maybe a little bit of misis. After school, 42 to 47 and later than just drizzle. Some showers will move through after about 5 or 6 00 can. An. They could last until midnight or so and then even wetter saturday night into the firstirs part of sunday morning where wee can pick up another inch of rain. Ill show you the timing for for that, what the models are doing with that system and have seven day forecast in just a few minutes. A former federal policermer officer learned he will spendne the last three and ad half yeas in prison. Pris chris bartly was sentenced toent three years in prison. He was on duty at the National Institute for standards and technology at gaithersburg at the time. The Us Attorneys Office says bartly put First Responders att risk by allowing them to enter a build filling with chemicals and gas. The judge said he wants to sendo a message that people who are entrusted with responsibility to protect others such as this defendant have a responsibilityp to do that. That is if they abuse their position of trust when they expose others to harm. Bartly resigned from his job th day after the explosion. He will begin serving hisis sentence march 1. Se before you know it spring will be here and so will all of thehe tourists who want to visit theth nations capital. Starting tomorrow a major sprino cleaning project is kicking off on the National Mall. Ma well tell you all about it. Something else we have tonight,g a show down between Wendy Williams and actress Alyssa Milano. Two very different opinions onon how much a mom should show when she is Breast Feeding. A controversial sensitive subject. I was worried about Wendy Williams. She was showing a lot of leg. She was worried about the skin alyssa was showing. Its on the way. Welcome back. Its 11 11. We want to turn to Fairfax County where School Student doctor karen garza has unvailed what some say is a bold Budget Proposal. It calls for a decrease in class sizes and no proposed cuts. S. Critics say her spending plan is not realistic. Tisha lewis was at nights meeting and joins us with the details. Reporter shawn and tony, the proposal happened here. E. Typically when youre unveil a budget without any cuts thatha means the taxpayers will have to feel the pain and bear the brunt of it all. T in this case, the superintendent is planning to put pressure onsr the state to fund this nearly 3 billiondollar budget and jusd again to recap were talking about a budget that would have increased teacher salaries, smaller classroom sizes in Elementary Schools and also a districtwide cost of livingving raise. I really see it as a crossroads. Way are we going to go . Are wee going to go the way where we decide after nine consecutive years of cuts that weve got to begin to restore and renew our system . applause or are we going to go the path where weer have to continue to make thehe cuts and weve seen, thanks tons our task force, what that could look like. And our community has expressed their feelings about this over these last six months prettyret clearly that they do not want us to continue the cuts. So the conversation leading up to tonights Budget Proposal focused on cutting Extracurricular Activities andie sports for students. Now the focus for protestors ant also the schools top boss is ts get more money from the statehe and county to save the programs and also much of the focus is on retaining good teachers by offering them hire salaries. Ala now, the latter, of course,rse, costs a significant a. M. Off money. Were talking about 40 million. Thats whats slated in this budget presented today. Rese part of the reason theason superintendent was able to propose the budget without cuts is slowing degree. At nights meeting dr. Garza slowing growth there was no additional proposal for funding that safes the district 20 million i wish this was done last year. La you know my feeling from lastom year. You should have asked for the whole thing last year. Election year, i dont use thats a an excuse. Please get out of the politics and let them do the business. Bui you fight for us parents and students and put a true budget up each year. If they dont fund the budget it looks like dr. Garza might have to resort to some of the 50 and 60 million our Task Force Found during a bust process this yearr and that would cut all sorts off things, everything from transportation to class size increases, freshman sports, instrumental music, world languages, just really start tor gut our school. Scho so the big question tonight, now what . Whats next . Publict . Hearings, thats the next step and all of that starts on january 25. That within the first publicthe hearing about this proposedropo budget. It could be the first off several. And again its important to note that this is the first budget that was proposed without cutsus in the last seven years. Ear tisha lewis, fox5 local news. It is that time of year, the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pooo is about to get its annualnnu cleaning. Workers are set to clean thean pool tomorrow. Work on the iconic pool on theo National Mall is expected to take between 30 and 60 days. The reflecting pool containsonta 6. 7 million gallons of water. Ga thats a lot of water. Theyre going to start thert cleaning or the draining of that pool on a foggy day. They sure will. Temperatures will not be tootoo bad, in the 40s. We have a little bit of a warming trend and into the 50s in the weekend. We like it. E li it comes with a little moisture. Look at that. Fog season continues, guys. That was just five, ten minutes ago when we showed the camera. You can see that the fog has built back in again. Agai its actually a great reminder for when youre driving around when it might look like everything is fine and all of a sudden its not. Somebody asked me a question earlier on twitter about is fog reflective. It absolutely is. Olut when you use your high beams itm can make it really even harder to see. So be very care lful and allow a little extra time. Li im going to start with whath everybody starts to be talking about in addition to the fog,og, redskins playoff at 4. 40 on sunday as you well know. We are excited that the rain rai will be over before the gameme starts, but there will be a lott of rain before it. Im leaving a shower in for thee tailgate at 1 00 just in case. I think most of the rain will be over and a lot of you will bee out there before 1 00, i know. You can see its warmer by 1,by1 but by the time we get to kicko off it should be down too 48degrees and a noticeable breeze starting toic p up. P. The wind will be even moremore noticeable and i would keep the heavy jacket with you if yourer heading on out. Ut. Hopefully it wont have to beto too water repel event as we get the bulk of the rain out of thee way. The moisture and the fog, there it withing a little bit of mistf out there as welch thats in the going to change tomorrow. C we think its going to be a dreary day with a few additional showers coming into the pictureu after 5 00 moving from west to east. Tonight were watchingatch temperatures. Most places will stay above freezing. Which is good because fog canog freeze, too. Martinsburg 2. Hopefully not too foggy outy no there. If you were to develop some fog, be abear that your temperatures might be on your sidewalks ands your cars. Ars what about the temperatureempe trend . Average high is 43. S 46 tomorrow. No sun to deal with so were in the going to be able to am what it up too much by then. Sunday 58. Much colder on monday at 42degrees. Matter of fact, the pattern is such that while the cold air retreats we start getting thatei sub tropical jet more active ana thats whyc well have a couple of rounds of rain. The heavier stuff tomorrow and overnight into sunday. Into and thats why you see most of it on the forecast. Starting at 58degrees and then dropping much colder by the time we get to monday and there coule even be a few flurries around on wednesday with a temperature of 38degrees. So far this year we have not even had a trace of snow. No snow here in washington, d. C. That is your seven day forecast, jim over to you. You does the name joe did i cove i ring a bell. Of course it does. Than would of the former hawgs who won three super bowls and we found he will be the honorary capital. He was named one of the 5the finalists for the hall of famel to be anund the day before the supplant bowel. Lets talk about deshawn jackson, though. Ja we know he wanted the ball a few more times than he got it. But he does bring playoff experience. Dont tell him just being in thn post season is good enough. I think everyone in the locker room is hungry. We have a great opportunity. We just want to continue to concentrate, really try to carry it on into the playoffs. All about the momentum. In hockey tonight, the caps in brooklyn facing the islanders. That sounds weird. Eird first period, no score. A h0 lead, then later on, passes through the defense off his legs. Watch this here, hes going toog get it over to alex ovechkin. Thats a career goal 497. The caps win 4. He is getting to number 500 nu quicker than we thought. Thou Daniel Murphy officially introduced today as the nats new second base man after spendingfr seven mets or metropolitans hemr kept saying.

Thats a whole bunch of money. O this is a whole bunch more monee and im really excited to be able to work with washington and what i think the foundation that has been laid here for 2016. But yeah, what a blessing. I mean, thats so much money. Its tough to describe. Esc i couldnt spend it in 30 live times. A whole bunch of more money.
