‘Whose Side Are You On?’ Columbine Survivor Blasts Obama

<img src="http://politicaloutcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/GunControl1-220x1... align="right">Evan Todd was one of the people injured in the infamous Columbine High School shootings, and in a recent open letter to President Obama, he pulled no punches.

“Why would you prefer criminals to have the ability to out-gun law-abiding citizens?” he demanded. “Whose side are you on?”
