I will also introduce a bill that I am working on to encourage more crime-gun tracing in light of last week's crime-gun trace report from the Chicago Police Department. We focus on terrorism and what it does to our country, and we should. That is our responsibility. Anyone who would do harm to innocent Americans--as in 9/11, killing 3,000 in that particular instance--needs to be taken extremely seriously by all of us in Congress and in the White House. Foreign sources of terrorism need to be carefully watched when it comes to our border security, when it comes to background checks, and the like. But let's be honest. More Americans are dying from Americans killing Americans with guns than by terrorist activity.
