So it is worth reminding ourselves of how lucky we are to be living in the most peaceful, most prosperous, most progressive era in human history, Obama said in the speech.
Because the world has never been less violent, healthier, better educated, more tolerant, with more opportunity for more people, and more connected than it is today, he also said.
Here are excerpts from the presidents speech as transcribed on the White House website:

Says the guy surrounded by human shields and has a nuke fall out shelter.
The A$$HOLE just has to taking, shooting up, smoking Something.
Spoken like a true nutcase.
Cruz and Obama running neck and neck for who is the most delusional
Is this satire?
The punk is a good liar.

Compared to the rest of human history, he is likely correct, but he had nothing to do with it. And it’s worth noting that two of his favorite groups are largely responsible for the violence we are seeing.

This means we can count on another major war or attack any day now.
His planes bombed and killed over 100 Syrian citizens a couple days ago. One of his terrorist groups in Syria beheaded a 12 year old recently also. He thinks that is peaceful.
A president has never been less honest.
He just loves to toss a molotov cocktail at the people.
He’s doing everything in his power to subvert that “peaceful” statistic, if it is even real.
All his recent statistics have been completely bogus.
is there a video or audio?
I haven’t seen one yet.
Why do you need to take our guns then?
