Barack has decided that armed self-defense “defies common sense”
The Coach's Team ^ | 6/26/16 | Doug Book, Editor

“Did you see how dark it was? It’s likely that more people would have been killed.” This was Bill Clinton’s response to a suggestion that law abiding people with firearms of their own might have been able to save lives by stopping Islamic terrorist Omar Mateen at the Orlando nightclub Pulse. Of course, Bill was comfortably surrounded by armed security during his Bloomberg television interview, as was Barack during his speech in Orlando a few days later.

But Obama offered an even more pointed dissent from those who believe the little people should be permitted the means of preserving their own existence. “This debate needs to change,” declared Barack. “It’s outgrown the old political stalemates. The notion that the answer to this tragedy would be to make sure that more people in a nightclub are similarly armed to the killer defies common sense.” (my emphasis)

Having the means to defend oneself defies common sense? Then why are you surrounded by scores of armed guardians 24 hours each day, Mr. Obama, especially given that you believe it makes good sense to transform the fundamental right of self-defense into a rare privilege?

Not surprisingly, the president lacked the capacity to limit himself to just one idiotic statement. For he soon claimed to be uncertain about the motive behind Omar Mateen’s cowardly murder of 49 unarmed, or rather disarmed individuals. “Whatever the motivations of the killer, whatever influences led him down the path of violence and terror,” moaned the hypocrite-in-chief, confused about Mateen’s reasons for the slaughter, even as the Muslim killer had called Orlando’s News 13 producer Matthew Gentili and said, “I did it for ISIS. I did it for the Islamic State.”

Obama then added, “…those who were killed and injured here were gunned down by a single killer with a...

We desperately need common sense Hussein and Islam-in-the-US control (pretty much the same thing).

That's why Hawaii is putting gun owners on a Criminal Watch List.

Dump your Secret Service details and armored cars for a month and then let's talk...MORON!

Of course, the White Hut MUST be locked up tight, with you OUTSIDE for the duration.

Does anyone believe this guy taught Constitutional Law?

The Myth endures; But less and less he mentions it since the truth became clear.

Like the Clintons, Omugabe learned mostly the parsing of words. He was never a professor and can't be. He was a glorified "substitute" teacher of the remedial high school variety. Without a clue of what the Bill of Rights signifies. He Definitely never spent time teaching ANY PART OF THE ORIGINAL CONSTITUTION.

HE DID BEAT TO DEATH THE RECENT LAWS, CREATED SINCE THE 60'S FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE 'GIBSMEDAT' CROWD.

Technically all laws, good or bad, useful or destructive, passed in the last 50 years are the only parts of the Constitution that he's familiar with.

That does NOT make him a 'Constitutional Scholar.'

Common sense would tell you NOT to bring in hundreds of thousands of unvetted Syrian Muslims who Obama’s own security agencies say they can’t guarantee won’t contain ISIS terrorists.

The right to self-defense is inherent in our nature, and no government can take it away from us or give it to us.

If Barack Hussein Obama had a son, he'd look like Omar Mateen.
