'These tragedies must end' says Obama



‘These tragedies must end’ says Obama
President Barack Obama on Sunday night said America would have to “change” in order to protect its children, combining a message of comfort to the Connecticut town stricken by a deadly elementary school shooting with a strong signal that his administration would explore new steps to stem gun violence.

“We can’t tolerate this any more. These tragedies must end and to end them we must change,” Mr Obama told a prayer vigil in Newtown, 65 miles northeast of New York, where a gunman killed 20 children – aged six and seven – and seven adults in a rampage on Friday morning.
