President Obama: Over the month since the tragedy in Newtown,
I started getting a lot of letters from kids.
Four of them are here today.
These are some pretty smart letters from some pretty smart
young people.
Hinna: Dear President Obama,
My name is Hinna.
I am a third grader in School Number 8.
I just wanted to tell you that I feel really sad.
Also I feel terrible for the parents who lost their children.
Mr. President, can we do something which will stop
all of these terrible problems?
After watching the news all day on Friday, one question popped
in my head, and that question is: Can we stop using guns?
If -- I think if there are no guns on the street,
no one could get hurt.
Bullets don't have eyes.
It can hurt anyone.
I am really scared of guns and criminals around the world.
I love my country and I want everyone to be happy and safe.
No guns, no guns, no guns, no guns.
Thank you, Hinna.
