Jarrett on Gun-Control Push: ‘Everyone Should Be Able to Live in Our Country’
PJ Tatler ^ | 8-27-2015 | Bridget Johnson

White House senior advisor Valerie Jarrett said the administration is renewing its call for gun control because while Wednesday’s journalist murders in Virginia “may not have been a mass shooting… it felt like a mass shooting.”

Killer Vester Flanagan, who murdered reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward and wounded Chamber of Commerce official Vicki Gardner, passed a background check to buy two Glock handguns weeks ago.

Jarrett told MSNBC last night that the shooting was “just heartbreaking,” and “we’re just faced with another tragedy.”

“And we are once again asking ourselves, what more can we do? We know that the president took 23 different executive actions to try to make it safer for Americans. We know from our effort after Sandy Hook, that 90 percent of the Americans believe we need sensible gun legislation and we are continuing to call on Congress to act,” she said.

Jarrett on Gun-Control Push: ‘Everyone Should Be Able to Live in Our Country’

Really, Val? So you're against abortion, then, right?

OK, Valjar, tell us what law, EXACTLY, would have stopped this latest tragedy/murder? I’ve considered the issue and, short of a complete disarmament of the citizenry, nothing could hope to work...and even then, people have access to gasoline, knives, lead or steel bars, cars and trucks, multi-story buildings, various chemicals, etc. - all of which can be used to kill others.

Oh, and BTW, the “complete disarmament of the citizenry” is not an acceptable answer.

Rush started this morning recounting how the Govt demanded minority hiring in the news media.

The Govt started this, and caused it. Minority/race valued over capability.

Then shooter says Charleston shooting put him over the edge. Well, the Charleston shooting was really anti-Christian more than anti-black (my own opinion).

But none of this will stop the speeding (anti-)’bullet train’ of gun control/confiscation.

Moscow is very safe day or night. No crime there. Not anywhere in the city. Oh wait, never mind.

Agree - that and a dedicated attempt to drive “Religion” out of the public square, hard to imagine there would be a different outcome. They want to deny God to avoid judgement on their actions, then blame inanimate objects when the inevitable result happens.

Mass shooting? No, it was another black hate crime against whites. The shooter said so, for God’s sake.

My prediction: Valerie will be pardoned by Obama when he leaves office for unspecified criminal activity.

“And we are once again asking ourselves, what more can we do?” Valerie Jarrett said.

No one who knew this guy was willing to take it to a court and have him legally adjudicated mentally incompetent so there was no legal or rational cause for him to be flagged by NICs.

Sorry, but that's how it is. Those who knew him didn't feel strongly enough to do something so who is to blame?

The voices of the millions of American gun owners are represented by the NRA.

Obama is a degenerate islamonazi communist monster intent on destroying the USA.

Jarrett is his KGB handler and a Iranian operative as well.

Valerie Jarrett is a ISLAMONAZI COMMUNIST from a family of COMMUNISTS and ISLAMONAZIS

The Communist Party USA continues to back their “friend” Barack Obama.

How deeply has the Communist Party been involved in advancing Obama’s political career-through the Jarrett family, or by other means?

The answers to these questions will have major implications for the future of what’s left of the free world

It is now well established that Barack Obama was linked to the Hawaiian Communist Party network through his boyhood/teenage mentor Frank Marshall Davis.

It is also well known that after moving to Chicago, Obama linked up with the local communist networks.

Manning Marable, a leader of the Communist Party offshoot Committees of Correspondence for Democracy&Socialism claims that Obama “understands what socialism is. A lot of the people working with him are, indeed, socialists with backgrounds in the Communist Party or as independent Marxists. There are a lot of people like that in Chicago who have worked with him for years...”

This leads to two key questions.

A Were the Hawaii and Chicago networks connected?

B Did Obama’s connection to Frank Marshall Davis in any way influence his progress up the Chicago political ladder?

If the answer is yes to both, there are significant implications.

Valerie Jarett is a COMMUNIST

Dee Myles is a Chicago activist and chair of the Education Commission of the Communist Party USA. In 2004, after Vernon Jarret’s death from cancer she penned this tribute for the People’s Weekly World of June 5th.

Readers like me can be extremely selective of the journalists we read habitually... We are selective about the journalists to whom we become insatiably addicted, and once hooked we develop a constructive love affair without the romance...

Such was my experience with Vernon Jarrett, an African American journalist in Chicago who died at the age of 86 on May 23. I became a Vernon Jarrett addict, and I am proud of it!

Vernon Jarrett’s career as a journalist in Chicago began and ended at the Chicago Defender, the African American daily paper. In between, he was the first Black journalist at the Chicago Tribune, and I first began to read his articles during his tenure at the Chicago Sun-Times

Jarrett’s claim to fame is that he was a partisan of the cause of African Americans in the broad democratic tradition of Paul Robeson and W.E.B. DuBois...

Robeson and DuBois were both Communist Party members. On April 9th, 1998 at Chicago’s South Shore Cultural Center, Jarrett hosted a Paul Robeson Citywide Centennial Celebration event, with his old comrade and Party sympathiser Margaret Burroughs and former Communist Party members Studs Terkel and his old friend Oscar C.Brown.

Dee Myles continues;

Jarrett was fanatical about African Americans registering and voting in mass for socially conscious candidates. He championed Harold Washington like a great warrior, and this March, from his hospital bed, wrote an article appealing to Black Chicago to turn out to vote for Barack Obama in the Illinois primaries. Obama astounded everyone with an incredible landslide victory as the progressive, Black candidate for the Democratic Party nomination for the U.S. Senate seat from Illinois. From his sickbed, Vernon Jarrett issued a clarion call, and the people responded.

The Jarrett/Obama conection did not end with Vernon Jarrett’s death-it moved to a higher level with his famous daughter-in-law Valerie Jarrett.

A former Deputy Corporation Counsel for Finance and Development under Harold Washington, Jarrett continued to work in the mayor’s office into the 1990s.

In 1991, while Deputy Chief of Staff for Mayor Richard Daley, Jarrett hired Michelle Robinson, then engaged to Barack Obama.

Later Valerie Jarrett ran the finances for Obama’s 2004 Senate bid and served as treasurer of Obama’s HOPEFUND.

The relationship is more than professional-Jarrett is regarded as one of the Obamas’ closest friends and advisors.

According to Take Political Action May 24th 2008;

“She’s always been the other side of Barack’s brain.” That’s how an Obama insider described Valerie Jarrett as an Obama campaign aide announced Thursday night the former CTA chief and current Habitat Co. CEO is taking on a larger role to help her close friend win his White House bid.

The development comes as Jarrett, a charter member of Sen. Barack Obama’s kitchen cabinet, has been formalizing her portfolio and stepping up the pace within the past few weeks as a top advisor within the campaign.

Though she will be part-time, Jarrett will be one of the most visible and powerful African-Americans in the top rungs of the Obama operation...

Today Valerie Jarrett serves as one of three Senior Advisors to President Obama. She is Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, and Chairs the White House Commission on Women and Girls.

Would there be an Obama/Jarrett relationship today, if there had been no Frank Marshall Davis/Jarrett connection through the Communist Party of post war Chicago?

Thanks for your post, Took me a while to finish reading it.

Obama took the oath, but not president Jarrett. They are (had been) out to shred the Constitution and the fundamental founding of this great nation.

Succeeded for more than six and a half years, with a slight majority of Americans’ support (two terms), and the turncoats in Congress.

Sounds more like their immigration policy.
