Obama wipes away tears as he calls for new gun measures (Drama Queen Alert)
Politico ^ | 01/05/16 | Sarah Wheaton and Nick Gass

Posted on 01/05/2016 9:50:06 AM PST by AngelesCrestHighway

President Barack Obama wept openly Tuesday as he delivered a forceful defense of new executive actions on gun violence, a set of modest proposals to tighten loopholes that likely face quick legal challenges and could be vulnerable to reversal by a Republican White House.

The president ran through a list of mass shootings that have happened during his time in office, and teared up as he recalled the schoolchildren gunned down in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012.

"First graders in Newtown. First graders," Obama said, pausing to collect himself. "Every time I think about those kids, it gets me mad. And by the way, it happens on the streets of Chicago every day."

“I wonder if he’ll come out after his presidency is over.”

Only if Michael Obama will.

It’s a shame one of those stray rounds didn’t catch you when you were in Chicago. If you really were in Chicago, that is. Bastard!

I was watching Outnumbered on FOX after the Emperor pontificated and rambled. Meghen McCain gave an eloquent, solid, reasoned defense of the 2nd amendment, and laid into Obama quite well. I was surprised.

He wipes an eye, *then* the tears, almost like he has onion or camphor on the finger. Interesting.

How many of these spree shootings feature a gun bought through a ‘gun show loophole’? Odds are none.

Millions of babies aborted - no tears for them, just more funding for the butchers. We have lost our way, Arthur, as Lancelot would have said.

Hey Bammie,

Wait ‘til you find out how many kids die because you’ve just catalyzed the biggest black market in firearms the world has ever known!

PS great job selling guns these LAST two terms.

Plus we know you’re on the DL bro.

Sincerely,

Yeah he’s so broken up that he’s demanding schools hire armed guards to protect the kids, He demanding that cities start cracking down on GANGS to cut WAY down on gun related violence- nearly eliminating it infact, and he’s Calling on citizens to arm themselves to prevent rogue shooters from walking into businesses in workplace violence acts

Yup- He’s real broken up about ‘the kids’

He’s such a drama queen... so convinced of the silliness that HIS side believes people should not be murdered and that the ‘other’ side thinks people should be murdered.

Is ANYONE over the age of ten that gullible? That stupid?

It’s hard to believe Obama could be that simple and childish - and still be elected to such a high office.

What, another murder in Chicago. Quick check all the legal gun owners. A-hole that he is he allows his homies to murder at will but does not want legal owners to be able to protect themselves.

Democrats created the problems and as usual exacerbating it with more laws.
