Oklahoma Gov. Fallin: 'Would Be Nice' If Obama Sent Condolences to Slain Student's Family

Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin said Sunday that Australian college student Christopher Lane's death wasn't about gun control -- "it was about murder" -- and she believes it "would be nice" if President Barack Obama would express his condolences to Lane's family.

"I certainly am going to say something on behalf of the state of Oklahoma, to the family," the Republican governor told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace. "It would be nice if our nation were to certainly express their condolences, how very sorry we are."

Chancey Allen Luna, 16, James Francis Edwards Jr., 15, and Michael Dewayne Jones, 17. Prosecutors said they gunned down 22-year-old Christopher Lane in Duncan because they were "bored and just wanted to see somebody die."

After Lane's murder, Tim Fischer, the former deputy prime minister of Australia, advised tourists they should boycott the United States to make a statement about gun control, but Fallin denied gun control was at fault.

"It's an issue about murder," she said. "It's an issue about three young men who did something very terrible to a very innocent bystander, that was jogging through his community, and it's very unfortunate what has happened."

Fallin said she understands that Australians are upset because of the shooting, but "people in Oklahoma are very upset too," as are many in the United States," but the Obama administration should express its condolences. I certainly know that's what I'm going to do."

He’s too busy to make those phone calls. It might interfere with his golf game or his bus tour. Besides, the last name isn’t Fluke or Martin.

It’s a nice thought gove, but if he did that he’d
have to write condolence letters to the relatives
of all the rest of the white folk who
were killed by feral thugs, then when would he get
any thing done..........oh wait.....never mind.

Christopher Lane was White. 0bama hates Whites, and loves anybody who attacks Whites.
End of discussion.

Whenever our fearless leader is outraged over something, you know it. He condemns it in no uncertain terms.
He never condemns it when the ‘religion of peace’ attacks normal people, or when America’s #1 victim group attacks Whitey.

I suspect hell will freeze over before Obama expresses concern for a white murder victim - especially one killed by someone who could 'look like his son'...
