When the balloon went up on what is now known today as the Second World War, the Allies of the US, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union found themselves facing perhaps the best military machine of its day.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper sat down with Late Show host David Letterman to talk gun control.

Cooper said America “isn’t ready” or “isn’t willing” to tackle the “gun control problem,” adding that if Sandy Hook wasn’t enough to spur action, then nothing will, according to the video posted to YouTube.
