Obama Claims It’s Easier To Buy Guns Than Books And Vegetables; Machine Guns In Bars [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/06/2015 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 03/06/2015 2:27:30 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Citing his failure to pass stricter gun laws in 2013, President Obama used dramatic language to discuss the gun debate on Friday.

“It is hard to reduce the easy availability of guns,” Obama complained during a town hall meeting at South Carolina’s Benedict College.

“As long as you can go on into some neighborhoods, and it’s easier for you to buy a firearm than it is for you to buy a book, there are neighborhoods where it’s easier for you to buy a handgun and clips than it is for you to buy a fresh vegetable,” Obama continued. “As long as that’s the case, we’re going to continue to see unnecessary violence.”

“Despite the failure of Congress to act, despite the failure of too many state legislators to act, in fact, some place it is goes in the opposite direction, we should have firearms in kindergarten and we should have machine guns and you know in bars and you think I’m exaggerating, you look at some of these laws that come up,” he said.

Obama was specifically referencing a 2013 effort to expand background checks for gun purchases.

“I thought after what happened at Sandy Hook would make us think about it,” Obama said. “You would have thought that’s got to be enough of a motivator. But we couldn’t get it done.”

...it’s easier for you to buy a firearm than it is for you to buy a book...

In black neighborhoods in Chicago that might be true.

There are also neighborhoods where fresh vegetables, firearms and ammunition can all be bought at the same store...

And books, too.

It’s really inconsiderate to let a delusional idiot like Obama wander around on his own like a normal person.

Whatever rights we have to surrender to make dysfunctional black ghettos in Chicago marginally safer, we must! Second amendment, free speech, freedom of religion, protecting the unborn, jury trials for those accused of crimes -- all of it should be on the table to be eliminated if we can save one precious black life. NO MORE TRAVONS!!

The entire reason for the existence of the United States of America is to end White Privilige and provide reparations for slavery. Every other value, purpose, motivation and goal needs to be subjugated to this larger goal of taking care of the Black Agenda and black people among us.

You mean we got to run background checks on fruits and vegetables now? I didn’t see any of them behind locked cases either. I also looked for guns laying out in the bins and on the shelves but I didn’t see any for sale.

Damn this guys an idiot but worse are the idiots who believe this nonsense and don’t question whether its the truth or not...

And I have a good idea of what kinds of neighborhoods those are.

“I thought after what happened at Sandy Hook would make us think about it,” Obama said. “You would have thought that’s got to be enough of a motivator. But we couldn’t get it done.”

Which means he’s got to do a better job planning the next shoot’em up.

WH liberal/ Commie thought process with the urrent administration:

“They (gun) just aren’t killing enough people for us to be successfulon any of our anti- gun legislation. At least not yet. Hmm lets see... here’s a list of judges who are pro-2nd amendment. No I want you to find out who their grand children are, where they live and go fill them full of lead. Got that?”

There’s a Super Walmart a half a mile down the street.

Books, firearms, ammo, veggies, and booze.

This is South Carolina. Was he in some sort of institution for the mentally defective?

Usually he give speeches to rooms filled up with union goons and hard core democrat hacks. So yeah, pretty much.

“Which means he’s got to do a better job planning the next shoot’em up.”

I spent an evening looking at some Sandy Hook “truther” videos and photos, etc. Hard to believe it was all fake, but some of it is pretty questionable.

I saw the one photo of the French comic strip office with blood all over the place, stuff and papers all over as people fled, etc. Compared to photos from the Sandy Hook official report that shows a classroom that the shooter entered with everything in its place, no blood, etc.

I would think that a reference to his hometown (Chicaco, not Hawaii or Kenya or Conneticut or wherever) where more people are shot in a month than at Sandy Hook would be a better talking point.
