Obama urges gun control after Colorado Springs shooting: 'Enough is enough'

Robert Lewis Dear, a 57-year-old from North Carolina, has been named as the suspected gunman behind a standoff at a Planned Parenthood health clinic in which three people died and nine were injured.

After he was named, Barack Obama said on Saturday the US had “to do something about the easy accessibility of weapons of war on our streets to people who have no business wielding them”.

“Period,” the president added, in a statement released by the White House. “Enough is enough.”

Officials speaking off the record gave the suspect’s identity to news outlets late on Friday. On Saturday morning, the city of Colorado Springs confirmed Dear’s identity and released a booking photo taken at the El Paso County criminal justice center.

Early reports portrayed Dear as a loner who lived in a rural cabin and did not noticeably discuss issues such as religion or abortion. Motive therefore remained unclear in the attack, which police said on Friday was carried out with a “long gun” – usually a reference to a rifle or shotgun.

On Saturday, Colorado Springs mayor John Suthers told reporters authorities were not ready to discuss a possible motive for the shooting, but said people could make “inferences from where it took place”.

Suthers said investigators had interviewed Dear but added wanted to learn more about him.

On Saturday, a police spokesperson said unspecified “items” left at the scene by the suspect had been “secured and and processed, and are no longer a threat”.

The crime scene perimeter around the Planned Parenthood clinic had been reduced significantly and those whose cars were parked in a grocery store parking lot nearby were able to take their cars home.

Screw the President, the Democrats, and so-called “progressives”.

Obama loves to dance in the fresh blood.

Damn.

I think you just won post of the year

[aimhigh]

Are Planned Parenthood clinics in Colorado considered “gun free zones”?

"If folks want to pop off and have opinions about what they think they would do, present a specific plan." BHO 11/18/15

So where's the specific plan or was Obama just popping off again?

When more law-abiding citizens start packing, the rogue shooters will have the odds increasingly against them.

Enough equals at least 1 hangun, 1 .22 rifle, 1 shotgun and 1 rifle . Per person. And 500-1000 rounds per weapon.
Some of you have work to do.......

To paraphrase the Lying Muslkim-In-Chief:

"The US has to do something about the Muslim in the White House, who doesn't believe in the Natural Rights of Man, BECAUSE he is a Muslim."

[Third Person]

Bring it on.

This ISN'T the full text of President Obama’s statement on the Islamofascist Paris murders:

The last thing Frenchmen and Frenchwomen should have to do, over the holidays or any day, is comfort the families of people killed by Islamic violence -- people who woke up in the morning and bid their loved ones goodbye with no idea it would be for the last time.

And yet, two weeks before Thanksgiving, that’s what we are forced to do again.

We know that Islam is the so-called motive of these particular gunmen and bombers for killing 130 people, wounding hundreds more, and terrorizing an entire community, when they opened fire with illegal assault weapons and took hostages at the Bataclan Theatre in Paris. We know that law enforcement saved lives, as so many of them do every day, all across France.  And we know that more Frenchmen and Frenchwomen and their families had fear forced upon them.

This is not normal.  We can’t let it become normal.  If we truly care about this -- if we’re going to offer up our thoughts and prayers again, for Allah knows how many times, with a truly clean conscience -- then we have to do something about the easy accessibility of Islam on our streets to people who have no business hiding behind it.  Period.  Enough is enough.

May Allah bless the Frenchmen and Frenchwomen who were murdered by the Religion of Pieces, Islam -- and may He grant the rest of us the courage to do something about the Plague of Islamofascism.

Did Obama call for crock pot control after the Boston Marathon bombing?

Obama’s an evil jackass.

[FunkyZero]

I call that not even enough to keep me busy on a typical Saturday afternoon

[lavaroise]

FUBO. We have an Obama ISIs terrorist problem and I am not going to disarm.

[dhs12345]

We must not forget how well gun control laws work in Chicago. /sarc. Apparently Obama has forgotten.

[windsorknot]

Impeach the POS.

We lack politicans who have the courage, integrity and devotion to the rule of law to do it.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I’d consider it a bare minimum, really.
I have 7 or 8 .22’s just in case somebody might need one.

[sheik yerbouty]

Count Barackula; he sucks! “Enough is enough”. One could say the same about his monstrous governance..

[jsanders2001]

> Enough is enough.

then stop staging and causing the shootings a$$hole. Resign and the shootings will stop.

[sheik yerbouty]

No, just God free zones..

[Lurkinanloomin]

I wish we could prove that they were behind them.
It does seem to be leftist misfits doing the shooting.

So, if the President knows it was a “weapon of war” how come no one else is screaming assault weapon? They are saying a “long gun” but only the Big Zero is claiming this is a weapon of war and that it is too easy to get a hold of.

From very limited information, it is looking like the guy is a perfect example of why gun control laws don't work and will never work no matter how loud a delusional President screams for more, more, more.
