Opinion: Obama looking to blame someone for church killings? Look in the mirror
http://www.bizpacreview.com ^ | June 18, 2015 | Carmine Sabia

In the wake of the Charleston shooting that claimed the lives of nine innocent victims in a Bible study class Wednesday, many people, including liberals like President Obama, have blood on their hands. The shootings were carried out by Dylann Roof, one man, but many have played a role in what has become an epidemic of violent mass murders in America. There are many things we as a society can blame for this tragedy, but lack of gun control laws is not one of them

A look at history will show that as gun control has increased, so has the propensity for Americans to commit mass homicide.

The first major gun legislation, like most gun legislation, came in response to a tragic event because liberals have always believed what Rahm Emanuel said in November 2008, “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” The Gun Control Act of 1968 created more control of interstate trafficking of firearms after Lee Harvey Oswald used a gun purchased through the mail to kill President Kennedy, NPR reported.

In 1986, the Firearm Owner’s Protection Act prevented felons from owning guns or ammunition and banned ammunition that can penetrate a bullet proof vest.

The Brady Handgun Violence Act was passed in 1993 and created the National Instant Criminal Background Check System gun dealers must use before selling a firearm to a customer, and in 1994 the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act banned the sale, use, manufacturing and import of 19 types of “assault weapons.”

As all of these gun laws have compiled over the years, only one thing has been a constant. Gun violence and mass murders have increased.

In the 1960s, there were six mass shootings, 13 in the ’70s, 32 in the ’80s, 42 in the ’90s, 28 in the 2000s and since January 2009, so far, there have been more than 110 mass shootings, according to the Washington Post and MSNBC. In 1950, with nearly no gun laws on the books there was a grand total of one mass shooting.

Yet, almost before the bodies of the nine people savagely murdered in Charleston were cold, President Obama was on TV talking about the need for more restrictive gun laws. For what?

Gun laws have obviously not prevented these events, and could well have been a catalyst for them because assailants have no fear as they know they are shooting at unarmed prey. But that isn’t where the culpability of Obama and his cohorts stops.

For six years, this president, former Attorney General Eric Holder, the ubiquitous Al Sharpton and a related cast of characters have been doing everything in their power to divide Americans into groups by race, sexual orientation and economic standing and pitted us against each other. Then when a crime of racial violence occurs, they look for someone to blame, but they need look no further than the mirror.

What’s even more insane is that for the entirety of this administration, Obama and his race hustlers have told Americans, particularly minorities, that they cannot trust the police. Now, they want to sell them on the idea that the only people that can be trusted with guns are the police. While we mourn the loss of the nine people killed in Charleston, let us not be led astray by the hucksters who seek to use this tragedy, and the blood of these victims, to push their own failed agenda.

Dylann Roof confessed. Seems pretty clear, he’s to blame.

Yes, Obama, look in the mirror. And then, shut up.

the race war started when the media tried to paint the zimmerman issue as a race murder when it wasn’t and every violence on black as a race war while ignoring every black and white crime

Yes, Roof is to blame. Roof also seems to have been talking about Baltimore, Ferguson, and Trayvon Martin though. Believe the race baiters, some of it funded by Soros with him apparently funding Ferguson protests, agitated the psycho here in Roof.

Yep. Dear Leader has been increasing racial tension since he took office, all for political gain.

Obama’s term started with him saying “The police acted stupidly”. Then he got involved in the Trayvon Martin crap. He has constantly been fanning the flames. I believe he wants what Roof thought was coming....a race war. Then he can declare martial law. And when he does, the republicans will do nothing. The only ones to be truly pissed off will be Bill and Hillary.

Obama’s an unscrupulous madman who’s looking more ridiculous every time he opens his stupid, demented pie hole. He should be thrown out of Washington for the good of the entire world.

The left has invented this idea that they refer to as "stochastic terrorism". They define it thusly:

1. The use of mass communication to incite random actors to carry out violent or terrorist acts that are statistically predictable but individually unpredictable. 2. Remote-control murder by lone wolf.

The way it works is like this:

whenever somebody openly disagrees with the left using any form of mass communication, that person is engaging in terrorism because some nut job might hear it and be then go out and kill people. Therefore, until folks like you and I stop arguing with leftists on the internet, we're terrorists and we are responsible for all of these mass murders.

I have an alternate theory however. I call it psychosexual corruption. It goes something like this: The left's bizarre and incessant fixation with non-traditional sexual identity irreparably corrupts the psychosexual development of certain at risk personalities who violently reject the psychosexual corruption in a confused rage.

Roof's comment about rape immediately prior to murdering 9 people leads me to believe that there was certainly a psychosexual component contributing to his psychotic rage.

Perhaps I have read too much Freud but I feel an overwhelming ambivalence underlies any kind of psychotic outburst like this.

That Roof ultimately found himself sitting in a church for an hour before finally giving into his psychotic impulses definitely suggests ambivalence. He was wrestling with demons and, sadly, the demons won.

“the race war started when the media tried to paint the zimmerman issue as a race murder when it wasn’t...”

We all know that if Zimmerman had looked up while getting his head bashed on concrete and seen a white face he would not have pulled the trigger.

Obama and the blame game. It’s non stop with him. He needs to grow up. This is what 5 year old children do.

He was influenced by his promiscuous mother. Also by his Muslim father. there was deep socialism in his family history. He has gotten away with pathological lying his entire life. He is the product of affirmative action. Is it no wonder he’s a complete nutcase?

There is something eerily different (and encouraging) about the reaction to this heinous crime in Charleston, as compared to Ferguson and Baltimore.

No riots, to begin with. Just the opposite.

We see tremendous outpourings of emotion from the white community, and it seems to be welcomed. Conservatives, in particular, are there, and are praying with the bereaved. Glenn Beck is there to pray. Compare with Al Sharpton, and what we all know will be his motivation for being there. I’m not sure Sharpton will be welcomed by the black community in Charleston.

Charleston is different.

The families of the fallen are forgiving the despicable perp. Meanwhile, the uncle of Dylann Roof is saying he would be happy to perform the execution. Compare this to the reaction by families in Ferguson, defending their thuggish spawn. This is significant.

For sure, what’s happening in Charleston is so far not what the left would want. Perhaps there’s a realization, a eureka moment, a catharsis going on within the black community there, that will result in something very positive. I sense a rejection of those attempting to divide the races, and that would be Al and Barack. It just feels different.

Perhaps it’s because it’s in the South. Contrary to what those with vested interests in keeping the races divided would want you to think about the South, those of us who live here know that the races have been coming together for some time. The races are intermingling socially, they are intermarrying, hell, blacks and whites are committing crimes together. This is what you will see if you will look, liberals.

Maybe it’s because it happened in a church. For this reason it has had a profound effect on WHITE PEOPLE. At least white people in the South. Our churches are important to us. It’s something blacks and whites in the South have in common.

I know the politics of this church, and I can’t get my head around it just yet, but something good is happening here, and only those who live here might have the ability to comprehend it.

I think you are wrong. This SOB has set race relations back 150 years.

The race war was started in the 1960s by Obama’s buddy Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground.

There was a period when it wasn’t as obvious there was a race war but there was still a race war being orchestrated by the radical left.

In 1991 with the R King beating the 1960s radical left/Weather Underground came climbing up out of the sewer and once again resumed a hot race war.

The LA race riots of 1992 were called the rebellion, the revolution, the uprising.

Following the 2000 election, which the radical left claimed Bush stole from blacks, J Jackson referred to it as the rebellion, the revolution, the uprising.

Now it’s being called “The Black Spring”.

It’s all one and the same.

Obama joined a church and was a member of that church for 20 years because the church reflected his views.

The views of the church Obama found so appealing, all the worlds problems are caused by the white race.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out the solution to the world’s problems, as preached by Obama’s church, can only be solved by the extermination of the white race.

This kid, Roof, has been told for going on 6.5 years now how it’s his skin color that causes all the worlds problems.

I’m surprised more haven’t snapped.
