So the President Gave a Speech Last Night

[Content Note: Guns; terrorism.]

Last night, President Obama gave a rare primetime Sunday night address from the Oval Office, to address the San Bernardino shooting, Islamic terrorism, and guns. Not mentioned anywhere during this address: The Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood assault that happened mere days before. For my feelings on that omission, please see this post from Friday.

Below is the President's address. The Guardian has a complete transcript here.
