Former president Barack Obama is a man who exhibits selective outrage based upon how a tragedy can benefit advancing the utopian vision. If an event includes changing "the world as it is" into the world Obama thinks it "should be," the former president will commend whomever he has to.
With that in mind, recently, via a piece written for Time magazine entitled "Cameron Kasky, Jaclyn Corin, David Hogg, Emma Gonzalez and Alex Wind," Obama praised the five Parkland student-activists who made Time's 100 Most Influential People list.
The former president wrote, "America's response to mass shootings has long followed a predictable pattern." Obama's article was even more "predictable."
For starters, the ex-POTUS chided Americans for our behavior after a mass shooting:
We mourn. Offer thoughts and prayers. Speculate about the motives. And then – even as no developed country endures a homicide rate like ours, a difference explained largely by pervasive accessibility to guns; even as the majority of gun owners support commonsense reforms – the political debate spirals into acrimony and paralysis.
Those sentiments come from a fellow whose whole career hinges on the debate that "spirals into acrimony and paralysis." After all, Obama is the one who laments death by guns while supporting "pervasive accessibility" to abortion on demand. In fact, the most glaring contradiction in Obama's Parkland stance is that 18 years ago, he would have heartily supported aborting the five teens to whom he pays Time tribute.

He praises Emma Gonzales, the bully who helped to turn a strange teenager into a mass murderer?
Hey Obama, in Parkland “the police acted stupidly.”
>>We mourn. Offer thoughts and prayers.
What does he pray to?
>>Speculate about the motives.
There is no “motive”. It is just the result of a cultural acceptance of killing as a way of making a point.
>>And then – even as no developed country endures a homicide rate like ours, a difference explained largely by pervasive accessibility to guns
Oddly enough, most of the homicides are from the “undeveloped world” side of large cities. It really is true that “people kill people”.
>>; even as the majority of gun owners support commonsense reforms
No they don’t. That’s just poll crafting and statistics-fudging.
>>– the political debate spirals into acrimony and paralysis.
Good. The system is working to protect rights from budding totalitarians.
Free at last. Thank God almighty.
Yes indeed. Thank God almighty
From the same idiot who, when he had complete control of the executive and legislative branch, did nothing to advance their cause of gun confiscation.
When the top person is hateful, biased, racist, has no morals and has no allegiance to our country... it says to all.. “this is what you can do also”.
barack obama has told them for 9+ years, how to act and what they can do.. over and above the law.. nevermind the law... he set the example for riots, hate, division .. and he’s still doing it.
Thought emma and piglet were tired of prayers.
The Obamas. Just another couple of cancerous tumors in this Republic.
Obama is a Community Organizer t heart.
This is his crowning achievement in his eyes.
He has these kids in a lather.
Remember, “Fired Up, Ready to Go’ from the campaign?
Obama & Co stokes the flames of civil discourse the end result is for government to take control. More Power and Money for the Statists. Same as it ever was.
