i m laura coates and this is cnn tonight. a short time ago we heard from an emotional and increasingly frustrated president biden. after all it was vice president biden nearly a decade ago who had the distinct responsibility to formulating the government s response to the tragedy at sandy hook. tonight he delivered his first prime time address to the nation on gun violence and the epidemic that has become in america. you may have noticed the 56 candles burning behind him. they re meant to represent shooting victims from all u.s. states and territories. and it came amid cries of enough. after columbine, after sandy hook, after charleston, after orlando, after las vegas, after parkland, nothing has been done. this time, that can t be true. this time, we must actually do something. this isn t about taking away anyone s rights. it s about protecting children. it s about protecting families. for god sake, how much more carnage are we willing to accept? how many more innoce
