The NorthStarNews.com family wishes you a Merry Christmas and asks that you keep the families of Newtown, Connecticut and across the nation that have lost children and teenagers to gun violence in your prayers. It is our hope and prayer that our nation will come to terms with the senseless loss of life caused by the availability of firearms and put stringent controls on access to them and gun ownership.
