LeBron James calls for more gun control following shooting tragedies
LeBron James said there is "no room for guns" as he bemoaned a rash of child shootings in Cleveland Friday and stated his support for stronger gun laws in America.
James reacted on social media Thursday to the first reports of a fatal shooting of 5-month-old Aavielle Wakefield on Cleveland's east side.
About the time James was posting his thoughts on the shooting – the third killing by gunfire of a child in Cleveland in a month – President Barack Obama was calling for Americans to thinks of way "to think about how they can get our government to change" and strengthen gun laws, in response to a mass, fatal shooting Thursday on a community college campus in Oregon.
