Obama blames NRA for gun violence

Once again, President Obama is exploiting the tragic deaths from a mass shooting to push his political agenda to control guns. This time, he escalates the rhetoric by blaming Second Amendment advocates for criminals’ acts.

After spending the day on the golf course Saturday, Mr. Obama spoke to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner about his priorities.

Referring to Monday’s tragic shooting at the Washington Navy Yard, along with the mass murders in Newtown and Aurora in 2012, Tucson in 2011 and shootings in Chicago, he said: “As long as there are those who fight to make it as easy as possible for dangerous people to get their hands on a gun, then we’ve got to work as hard as possible for the sake of our children. We’ve got to be ones who are willing to do more work to make it harder.”

So who is fighting to make it easy for criminals to get guns?

Of course he is referring to the 5 million members of the National Rifle Association. He did the same thing in April after his gun control agenda failed to get 60 votes in the Senate. In the Rose Garden, he blamed the lack of support on the “gun lobby” lying about the legislation, which “intimidated a lot of senators.”

We need to keep pumping the “Impeach, Convict, Imprison” theme!

I want this slimy sonofabitch thoroughly and completely discredited and imprisoned for the rest of his natural life!

Muhammed Saleem was an Obama supporter. Not an NRA member.

Speaking to the Congressional Black Caucus (barf) I wonder if the douche bothered to ask them why the vast majority of gun-related murders are committed by blacks? Hmmm?

I would prefer him in JAIL much sooner than that.

Have dreamed of seeing him evicted from the White House in handcuffs for 5 long years.

Interesting. He always seems to leave out Ft. Hood. Wonder why?

If my president said it, it must be true! Half the people in this country believe whatever he says. Even when it’s taking away their own guns.

The NRA has nothing to do with gun violence. It’s mostly Holder’s people doing the shooting as they glorify in gangsta rap.

Does he blame the Second Amendment for arming the Mexican drug cartels? Or the terrorists fighting the Syrian government?

Or his jackass partner in crime, Joe Bite me who said we should buy a shotgun, the exact type of weapon used in D.C.

Guys like Obama are the reason the Founders wanted Americans to be well armed and trained.
