Last night in Houston, award-winning recording artist Kirsnick Khari Ball, also known as Takeoff, lost his life at 28 years old, and two others were injured,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In Chicago, 14 were injured by gunfire \u2013 including three children \u2013 and one injured by a vehicle as she tried to flee last night. In Kansas City, six were injured and a teenager was killed at a Halloween party. These are only the shootings that made national headlines,&#8221; Jean-Pierre continued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Enough is enough. Gun violence in this country is an epidemic that will not end with thoughts and prayers alone. President Biden will continue to do everything in his power to reduce gun violence, including by calling on Congress to increase community violence intervention funding, ensure universal background checks, and send legislation to his desk banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. It\u2019s past time we turn our pain into purpose,&#8221; she concluded. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/turn-em-in-or-become-a-felon-mandatory-buyback-starting-in-this-state\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-house-press-secretary-enough-is-enough-time-to-ban-assault-weapons\" title=\"White House Press Secretary: Enough is enough...
