The issue of gun control and mental health is complex, but as the President said earlier this week, "The fact that this problem is complex can no longer be an excuse for doing nothing. The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence doesn't mean that we can't steadily reduce the violence and prevent the very worst violence." But in Washington, D.C., nothing happens easily or without conflict. So, what makes this any different? This week's Washington Watch roundtable features Michelle Bernard, president and CEO of the Bernard Center for Women; Elroy Sailor, co-founder and CEO of the JC Watts Companies; Leila McDowell, managing director of communications for the Advancement Project; and Joe Madison, Sirius XM Radio's "The Black Eagle."
