As Knoxville, Tennessee, continued grappling with the killing of rising high school football star Zaevion Dobson, President Barack Obama took to Twitter to repeat his call for stricter gun control laws.

"Zaevion Dobson died saving three friends from getting shot," Obama wrote Sunday from Hawaii, where he arrived Friday for the holidays. "He was a hero at 15. What is our excuse for not acting?"

Hey, Donald Trump fired your @ss last week, jerkweed.

STFU.

[boycott]

If Obama and all our liberal leaders are willing to give up their security, I am willing to listen to what they have to say. Otherwise, he can put a sock in it.

[vpintheak]

Come and take them.

[ilgipper]

Acting? You first, Obama. Get rid of all armed protections. At home and when you leave town.

Trump wrote [DONALD J. TRUMP STATEMENT ON BUDGET DEAL]:

... a cowardly threat from an incompetent President...

Trump fired you, Obama.

[Sasparilla]

What is needed is thug control.

[Olog-hai]

The LORD rebuke the POTUS for his continued abuse and disrespect of the dead.

Zeavion?

Guns is obviously the common denominator.

"...not acting...." as in doing what? This guy's a broken record of a bad song.

Just give it a rest, Obama. You're making yourself look more and more like the loser you've proven yourself to be.

0bama’s home town of Chicago first. Clean that out of guns then maybe we’ll talk. Maybe.

[chris37]

This guy is a broken f*ckin’ record.

Hey, Barry, why don’t you control your damned sons so the rest of us can live our lives in peace.

And Zaevion Dobson obviously wasn’t one of yours. Rest in peace, Zaevion, thank you and God Bless.

The Kenyan calls for “gun control” every time he passes gas.

[mylife]

If all true Bless this young man but a curse on Obamas disingenuous ***

[DesertRhino]

Does the ignorant fool think the gang bangers who shot him would have obeyed any new gun control law?

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Obama...how about enforcing existing gun laws? How about closing the borders? How about not letting so many people out of prisons?

[exDemMom]

The headline implies that Obama killed the kid, then called for gun control.
