ommitted to dealing with
the gang problem that is tormenting honest people in his hometown as
he is to blaming law-abiding gun owners for the acts of psychopathic
murderers."House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, repeated his view that the
Senate should act, saying, "It's one thing for two members to come
to some agreement. It doesn't substitute the will for the other 98
members."In a written statement, Obama said he'd prefer stronger language
than the compromise, but he said it represented progress."It recognizes
that there are good people on both sides of this issue, and
we don't have to agree on everything to know that we've got
to do something to stem the tide of gun violence," he said.Other
highlights of Obama's gun agenda -- including bans on assault weapons and
high-capacity ammunition magazines -- seem to have little chance of winning
approval in the Senate, let alone the House.Polls show more than 8
in 10 people back expanded background checks. Even so, the fight will
be difficult in both chambers, especially the House, where increasing numbers
of district lines are drawn to protect incumbents, said James Pasco, executive
director of the Fraternal Order of Police."They're not going to have a
constituency in every instance that is champing for that bill," said Pasco,
whose group has backed the drive for expanded background checks.The director
of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, one of whose leaders is New York
City Mayor Michael Bloo
mberg, said the compromise was a major improvement
and showed that Republican support was possible."Opposing yet another reform,
which has Americans scratching their heads, is not a place where a
national political party can afford to be," said Mark Glaze.Reflecting concerns
about unseen details about some gun rights language, the Brady Campaign
to Prevent Gun Violence took a more tempered view."While we continue to
review the legislation, we believe a majority of the components are a
good step forward," said Brian Malte, director of the campaign's network
mobilization.There are no current, definitive statistics on how many gun
sales occur annually and what portion occurs without the checks. A study
in the 1990s found that up to 40 percent of transactions involved
no checks.Fox News' Chad Pergram and the Associated Press contributed to
this report.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;"> arts now," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid acknowledged after
Thursday's vote.He assured Democrats that a proposal to renew the assault
weapons ban and a ban on high-capacity magazines would get a vote
as an amendment, though it was dropped from the main bill amid
intense opposition.The main bill also includes a measure to increase school
safety funding.Reid lost two Democrats in Thursday's vote -- Sen. Mark Pryor,
D-Ark., and Sen. Mark Begich, D-Alaska, both lawmakers from states with
a strong tradition of gun ownership.More than a dozen Republican senators
for days had threatened to hold up the bill Thursday. They voiced
concern that the proposal -- namely, the background checks provision --
would infringe on Second Amendment rights and impose a burden on law-abiding
gun owners. They also expressed frustration that, while Manchin and Toomey
touted their compromise measure, the bill on the table Thursday did not
yet include that. Rather, it included a stricter background checks provision."Because
the background-check measure is the centerpiece of this legislation it is
critical that we know what is in the bill before we vote
on it," Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky.; Ted Cruz, R-Texas; and Mike Lee,
R-Utah, said in a statement. "The American people expect more and deserve
better."Thursday's vote follows an intense week of lobbying by gun control
advocates, including the families of the victims of the December mass shooting
at Sandy Hook Element
SAO PAULO The government has set up a task force to
deal with the influx of Haitian immigrants into Brazil's northern state
of Acre.The Justice Ministry says representatives of five ministries and
the federal police comprise the task force that will "regularize the situation
of Haitian immigrants who have entered Brazil illegally."Thursday's announcement
follows a declaration of "social emergency" in Acre state due to the
costs of helping the increasing numbers of Haitians entering the state.It
said that more than 4,000 Haitians have entered Acre since the 2010
earthquake that devastated Port-au-Prince. State Justice and Human Rights
Secretary Nilson Mourao says that 1,100 immigrants entered the state just
in the past few days.
