Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron, both on their way out of office soon, seemed in a particularly light-hearted mood despite the day's grim and dominant subject matter.
The pair laughed and joked with fellow leaders as they posed for a group picture and yukked it up as photographers kept snapping.
Hours earlier Obama had sermonized about the deaths of five police Texas police officers upon landing in Warsaw, saying that 'when people are armed with powerful weapons, unfortunately it makes it more deadly and more tragic.'
'And in the days ahead we are going to have to consider those realities as well.'
Retired surgeon Ben Carson, a former Republican presidential contender and current Donald Trump cheerleader, lit into him within hours and dismissed renewed calls for gun control legislation.
'Now is definitely not the time to get political,' Carson said on the 'Fox & Friends' program. 'Now is the time to use logic and ask ourselves, "Why do we have a Constitution? Why do we have a Second Amendment?"'
'Theyre always saying, "You don't need a high powered weapon to hunt deer",' Carson continued. 'The Constitution is not about deer hunting. It's about people being able to defend themselves from an overly aggressive government or an external invasion.'
Carson told the Fox audience that if he were president, he would ask Americans instead to 'imagine 24 or 48 hours with no police what would your life be like?'

God bless Dr. Ben. He is a brilliant man with common sense, a truly rare individual.
I'd be exhausted from digging graves.
“I’d be exhausted from digging graves.”
Who would be killing the people whose corpses you would be burying?
Probably me and the neighbors. With no cops around the ‘less fortunate’ would attempt to take liberties. Purely self defense mind you. Ain’t startin’ it, but dang sure to finish it.
Barky is just making an ass out of himself...this is the last time we have to put up with his embarrassment...he thinks if he incites all this BLM crap and his muzzie friends, he will enact Martial Law, but I bet the Military will have something to say about that...
I don’t understand an elected official could be so jolly on the day 12 American cops are shot — unless he is happy that they were shot.
Of course he’s happy.
He’s off in Europe with other America hating dignitaries from around the globe, all tut-tutting about what a racist, gun violent country the US is.
Are you sure? Maybe he isn't happy. Maybe the company of other AAO (anti-American opportunists) isn't enough. Are there any warm golf courses nearby? Any rap musicians he can import to perform at his pleasure? If not, maybe he's not entirely satisfied.
Am I surprised? Nope.
Last year an American and a British journalist were both beheaded by ISIS and a youtube video uploaded of the event. Obama was on vacation at Martha’s Vineyard and made a quick speech, where he basically said nothing of import, and less than 10 minutes later he was on the golf course grinning it up with two of his buddies.
I see no difference here, he wants a race war and he has no compassion whatsoever for the average American.
Black Lives Matter must be declared a domestic terrorist group and shut down.
Google and Soros and Steyer and a bunch of the usual suspects are going to meet up to fund BLM more.

I wouldn't bother...
