A young white man spent an hour praying with worshippers in a US church - then shot nine of them dead. President Obama says the US must grapple with gun control. Will he do it?

A young white man spent an hour praying with worshippers in a black church - then shot nine of them dead. President Obama said the US would have to confront gun control. Will he be able to take on the gun lobby in what is left of his term of office?
