In Poland, Obama says an abundance of guns helps fuel tensions in America

Castile died as his girlfriend live-streamed video of him bleeding to death while an armed police officer stood a few feet away.

“We don’t know what happened, but we do know that there was a gun in the car that apparently was licensed, but it caused in some fashion those tragic events,” Obama said of Castile’s shooting.

Barry, its bad tact as the leader of AMERICA to criticize her when in another country. Only Jimmy Carter does that.

And of course, Hussein has no respect for the 2nd amendment. Just hate whitey.

Roger that. Yappin’ rhetoric helps inflame things. ‘Spcially when the yapper knows NO details and just spouts of pure manure.

I’m sure the Poles hold Obama in fairly low esteem. That’s why I’m loving the Poles and humbly apologize for all the jokes I’ve told.

I’m more concerned about an abundance of facists and race baiters.

No it was an over abundance of meddling by a strategically placed enemy infiltrator who wanted to destroy the U.S.

Mr. Obama,

There is a simple way to prove whether your assertion is true or false: Tell the Secret Service to disarm.

According to your assertion, there will be less tension in and around Washington D.C.

It will be ugly in the short term, but soon enough he'll be out of office.
