Washington : As a heartbroken President Barack Obama renewed a call for gun control in the wake of the killing of two journalists on live TV, Republican frontrunner Donald Trump instead favoured addressing mental health issues.   “It breaks my heart every time when you read about or hear about these kind of incidents,” the president told an ABC affiliate after the shooting of a television reporter and a cameraman in Virginia Wednesday. “What we know is that the number of people who die from gun-related incidents around this country dwarfs any deaths that happen through terrorism,” Obama said.
