Obama on mass shootings: ‘We should be ashamed’
Yahoo News ^ | 6/10/2014 | Oliver Knox

Posted on 06/10/2014 11:26:04 PM PDT by South40

By turns angry and anguished, President Barack Obama declared on Tuesday that his “biggest frustration” since taking office has been America’s failure to take even modest steps to curb mass shootings so frequent that they threaten to become routine.

“The country has to do some soul-searching about this,” Obama said gravely in a town-hall question-and-answer session led by Tumblr founder and CEO David Karp in the White House’s State Dining Room.

The American Revolution began when the British tried to disarm the colonists.

You're giving reprehensible POS's a bad name. This assclown is way worse than that.

I am ashamed that we haven’t figured out what is producing these shooters. I am ashamed that we might know what is producing them, but do nothing about it. I am ashamed that it may be the result of pushing God out of our culture.

A totally lawless POTUS who sets the example for the whole nation should be searching his own damn soul.

Simple solution: Disarm the KKK and their DemonRAT toadies. Every single mass murder and political assassination in the past 150 years has been done by Klansman/DemonRAT: John Wilkes Booth, Leon Czolgosz, Lee Harvey Oswald, Sirhan Sirhan, James Earl Ray, Jarad Miller and all the rest.

Guns don't murder, DemonRATS and their KKK terrorist wing do.

I didn’t do anything.

But I am ashamed of you, Mr. Resident.

Utterly and totally ashamed.

The Left requires guns to take guns away from the Right.

Those mass murders were committed by individuals of the class of people trying to disarm their perceived inferiors with new and unjust laws.

Of course not. It's not their fault, it's ours.

Hey Barry, put some damned armed protection in the schools huh? You and your ilk want to keep schools ‘sitting duck’ zones and then use the tragic results of that to take guns from law abiding citizens.

We all know why Obama and other dems want to take our guns away, but why is such a simple solution so hard for rank and file liberals to understand?

On this issue I have no shame. I was raised right by TWO parents who loved me, disciplined me when I needed it and encouraged me to get an education and find a suitable career. And God was ever present in our household. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself and your supporters who have created a dysfunctional society devoid of God and parents who care and which is producing children who are insensitive to and thrilled by violence.

The murder rate is actually at an all time low. It started dropping like a stone at about the same time that law abiding Americans started legally carrying concealed semi-automatic handguns and revolvers.

Start looking at your home town if you want something to be ashamed about Mr. resident.

Showing his hypocrisy, Obama said in 2012,”I believe in the Second Amendment.” now he wants to emulate Australia which took away guns from law abiding citizens.

If it weren’t for willpower, I’d be cursing daily whenever this Marxist speaks.

Wonder why Jug ears didn't mention his homeboys in Chicago.
Think 30 or so were shot up with 4 dead, wonder if he's ashamed of that, I mean being a former community organizer and all in Chicago.
