The white house summit on gun violence is wrapping up today. But there are no signs of a broad consensus as the president gets ready to push new gun control measures. Doug luzader is following the latest from capitol hill this morning. Good morning, doug. Reporter good morning, guys. Today the focus at the white house summit will be on violent video games and the role they may play in gun violence. We know where the white house stands on this. Despite meeting yesterday with gun control opponents. I thank you all for being here. Reporter they may have been sitting around the same table, but there was a wide gulf, as Vice President joe biden met with the National Rifle association and other groups that oppose white house gun control efforts. Because theres got to be some Common Ground here, to not solve every problem, but diminish the probability that what weve seen in these mass shootings. Reporter the nra says they walked away disappointing. Other groups that attended said the agenda was clear. We had the opportunity to speak, and i think there were a lot of things we agreed on. But at the end, he chose instead to focus on our differences. Reporter the white house has made no secret of the fact the president wants a new ban on assault style weapons as well as a crackdown on large capacity magazines in the wake of last months School Shooting in connecticut. Absent that, they may try to clamp down with executive action. Pro Second Amendment groups are pushing for a greater focus on Mental Health issues and the role of violence in the media. Gun Rights Groups are planning a gun Appreciation Day next saturday to help rally support, a day before president obama is sworn in for his second term. The time frame is pretty brief. The Vice President is supposed to report back to the president with his recommendations for additional gun control measures on tuesday. Tony and allison. Doug luzader, thank you. We want to let you know a new poll find people in virginia overwhelmingly support background checks and armed police at schools. The new senator from virginia, tim kaine, told allison earlier he remembers the Virginia Tech shooting when he was governor. You can take concrete steps to reduce gun violence and you should. Now, all the steps we need to take arent just about guns. Mental health, hugely important. Campus or School Security protocols, hugely important. Some of the steps we took in richmond and in virginia and some of the steps we need to take now do involve guns, better background record checks. Theres no reason that nonpolice officer military need combat weapons. No reason we need to let these killer magazines be sold. And these reasonable restrictions are supported by the gun owners that i know. He is a gun owner, and he worked to make sure the Virginia State constitution guaranteed the right to hunt. Less than a monday after the shooting in connecticut, a 16yearold fired a shot in a California High School yesterday. His teacher is being called a hero this morning for talking the teen down. That teen did critically wound one student and missed another and told the Science Teacher i dont want to shoot you. He put the shotgun down and thats when Police Arrested him. He was reportedly bullied by the victims and was suspended last year for making a hit list. Students warned each other by text message even before police arrived. Man accused of shooting into the pentagon and other military targets is scheduled to be sentenced today. His lawyers want the plea deal reviewed because he has been diagnosed as a schizophrenic. He pleaded guilty to the shootings last year and accepted a plea deal in exchange for a 25year prison sentence. The judge overseeing a preliminary hearing into the colorado theater shooting says the case can go to trial. He says there is enough evidence from james holmes. He faces up to 160 felony counts for allegedly killing 12 people and injuring 70 others and is due back in court later today for an arraignment. His lawyers say they are not ready to enter a plea.

That number could go higher when the Agency Releases new numbers later today. Fox5s sherri ly is live at Washington Hospital center this morning. Sherri, how is our area faring . Reporter we already know the numbers are alarming across the country and here as well. People are swamping the hospitals, trying to get care. D. C. Is reporting more than 300 confirmed flu cases. Thats triple the number they had for all of last season. Maryland and virginia are also reporting unusually high numbers and thats caused a run on the flu vaccine. Doctors offices and pharmacies are running short. Some dont have any at all. The first cases showed up in this area in october. Its spreading fast. People are going to three and four places before they can find the vaccine. Some Health Care Providers who ran out do expect to get more in the next few days, but others arent sure if they can get any more at all. The season started early this year, and we have a long ways to go, so. You know, so yeah, im exposed every day. We wait in line there and they said, were out. Then we went to the one in my neighborhood, and said, were out. Wont have them until 2 00 tomorrow. We came over here. Reporter part of the problem is that 95 of the doses made this year have already been sent out, so that leaves a limited supply left. Many places are telling people just to keep checking back, but no guarantees and given the supplies and high number of flu cases, were told the shortage could only get worse. Tony and allison . Sherri, a quick question, what should people do if they think they have the flu . Reporter first of all, stay home. Dont go to work and spread this. And see your doctor. The cdc says in most cases people can get well at home and wont need any additional medical care. But there are groups of people, the children and the elderly who are most vulnerable, and if you see some of these emergency signs get to the hospital. Things like shortness of breath, trouble breathing. If you have a child that is turning bluish or is not waking up or interacting with you. If there is some confusion. These are the types of signs to get to the hospital. The emergency rooms, remember, they are already maxed out. So you dont want to go there unless it is a true emergency. All right, sherri ly reporting. Thank you. Well, if you are one of the many who rely on a sleeping aid at night, listen up. The fda has ordered the makers of drugs like ambien to cut the dose in half. They say it will protect patients from injury due to morning drowsiness. Its also in effort to reduce drug abuse.

Thanks, tucker. Thats mary j. Blige, looking for something to love me. The question is, my cousin is always saying to me that my husband loves me too much, pays too much attention to me. My husband is very kind, loving and respectful to me and my children. He surprises me at work with roses, love poems and we text each other to say hi. My cousin who is single says i should cheat on him because he is now. I know its wrong for her to say and wrong to ask him to send her roses and chocolates. My husband doesnt trust her. How do i let her know im uncomfortable with her flirting with my husband without making a family feud . Okay, i can hear everybody out there saying, this is simple. Just shut this whole thing down, right . But it is complicated by the fact that this is her cousin. Viewer, thank you so much for writing in. Its only twofold in my opinion, protecting your relationship and dealing with family members who cross the line. Clearly your cousin has issues. She really needs to focus on herself now and getting those straight. Because what she is doing is absolutely wrong. She is totally out of line by asking your husband to do anything romantic for her. That sounds incredibly insane to me. Then turn around and say that he does too much for you . Come on. You know this is totally out of line. So yes, im sorry, but you have to have a sitdown conversation with your cousin. Your husband seems to be on the same page, so thats not a problem, thankfully. Your job is to talk with your family member. Shes infringing on your relationship and you arent going to stand for it. Thats the end of that story. Tell her you dont appreciate her advising you on anything, and then turning around and wanting the same things, kindness from her cousin in law, if you will. She is jealous, period and trying to get in there and cause damage, perhaps so the two of you can sit around and be filled with issues together. Thats what it sounds like to me. Thats plain talk. To the larger point, though, and this is for all of us as we move into the new year, because this situation sounds sort of ludicrous and focused on just this person, but for all of us. Its a new year. Lets start this thing off the right way. Lets get rid of all toxic relationships in our life, get rid of people in our air telling us something when they know that they really want whatever it is that you have for themselves. Get rid of that moving forward in 2013. Make it a great year. You have to talk to your cousin. In it does not end, you might have to talk about cutting her out of your life in some way. Everyone around you will know that youre making the right decision. Good luck to you. Its not easy. But its so who would do that . Crazy. But there are people in the world, they dont want to see other people happy. If you have a question youd like answered, send it to me, head to myfoxdc. Com, click on the morning tab for a link to ask allison. That is something youre right, there are people who dont want to see other people happy. Because theyre not happy. Jump in and mess it up.
