NBC News ^ | 12/20/2015 | Tim Stelloh

As Knoxville, Tennessee, continued grappling with the killing of rising high school football star Zaevion Dobson, President Barack Obama took to Twitter to repeat his call for stricter gun control laws.

"Zaevion Dobson died saving three friends from getting shot," Obama wrote Sunday from Hawaii, where he arrived Friday for the holidays. "He was a hero at 15. What is our excuse for not acting?"

Yes, making it harder for law abiding citizens to own guns will stop crime like making it harder for non-drinkers to own automobiles will stop drunk driving.

Get rid of evil first, and then we can talk about getting rid of guns.

Obama is a traitor to the United States, so when he steals oxygen and exhales his lies, he is not to be trusted.

Sadly Traitorcongress has become complicit in Obamatreason by ignoring their constitutional oath of office and deliberately not impeaching Traitorobama.

STFU. Probably just your criminal sons shooting each other up again. Global warming is of higher priority to you, then murders in the inner city. To you black lives don’t matter because I don’t hear you addressing the real reason for gun violence in the US. Most murders are not done by mental defectives or terrorists. If you want to know who is responsible look in the mirror.

Well then his entire two terms has been spent re-enacting the campfire scene from “Blazing Saddles”.

When Liberals say Gun Control what they mean is gun confiscation, like going door to door and taking your gun away. Democrats made that VERY obvious last night during their debate, they pretty much said that is what they want

Now is NOT the time for gun control with ISIS knocking on the nation’s door. It is a highly irresponsible suggestion of Obama to do so.

Of course. It’s all a smokescreen for that; he wants more innocent victims to fall to the criminals.

All part of the plan for more chaos in the country. Never misses an opportunity. Never.

Sure, because the criminals that shot that boy would not be criminals if there was just one more law. I’m sure one more law for them to break is all that’s needed to stop these criminals. ;-/

Why don’t you do something about BLACK gang bangers and ILLEGAL alien gang bangers from Mexico and Central America, O’bunghole?

It’s just an excuse to try to take away guns from law biding citizens who have a Constitutional and Unalienable right to buy them and own them.
