Former President Barack Obama encouraged gun control proponents on Friday to stay committed to securing new gun laws “no matter how long it takes.”

Friday was National Gun Violence Awareness Day.

Obama tweeted that gun control proponents must not only push for a change in laws, but also in “leadership” to secure the new laws:

Dang. Anyone else miss "gun violence awareness day"? I thought that was just NJ. Besides, obamskee, why aren't you in the office at NOTflix writing some uniting, made for TV, cutting edge, relevant docudrama? Sit down and STFU!

What happened to Obama’s plan to take over the resistance movement and lead them to a smashing victory over the evility of Trumpism?

He announced his intention take his place at the head of the phalanx back in May of 2017.

Is this it? Encouraging other people to carry on with the fight while he enjoys the ambiance of gated communities and the fawning of billionaires?

I think ms. hogg beat him for the top spot. Maybe over an 8 year period he won’t.

“I don’t wanna take your guns”
“Show leadership and stay committed to taking their guns”

Talk to AlGore about how well an anti gun agenda works in converting itself into new or even repeat votes.
Bring it on.

Why isn’t he busily writing his presidential memoirs?

Oh, that’s right. He already got the $ for the book, and that’s what matters. No need to actually write it—at least not while there’s still choom to smoke. That weed is not going to smoke itself, after all.

...Friday was National Gun Violence Awareness Day...
Surely this resulted in fewer Chicago shootings yesterday.

I’m wondering if the left has noticed the mid-term poll numbers being unfavorable to them, and begged their messiah to exert himself a little on their behalf. Because it seemed he’d been keeping his piehole shut for a while, while he went off and did blow to his heart’s content out of the spotlight. But now he’s coming out a little more in his usual “presidential” mode of hectoring and finger-wagging. The Finger Wagger In Chief. As if the American electorate is his kindergarten class. Now that he’s out of office I can usually take him or leave him until he gets going in nag mode again, then I remember one of the many reasons why he’s insufferable, annoying, and obnoxious.

What Obama wants to repeal the Second Amendment or at least hollow it out? Get out!

Obama also encouraged riots from kids who were shooting police.
He encouraged trouble.. he isn’t done.. i hope they find him guilty of what he’s done and been media protected.. and gop too lenient. He’s ripe for justice.

If I remember correcly (yeah, right) the pair got $65 million for their book deal with penguin(?) and $50 million for their awesomeness with NOTflix. Pretty good for not actually having any talent.

Maybe Bill Ayers has been too busy to write it.

Rebellion against Amendment II of the Constitution is a serious matter.

“No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

United States Constitution, Amendment XIV, SECTION 3.

Any infringement of the right of the People to bear arms legally means disbarment from domestic government office (and probably the pensions too).

Any judge that refuses disbarment becomes in rebellion against Amendment II and the Constitution.

Will the leftist Supreme Court justices refuse to remove a rebel from office and become themselves subject to removal by a 5 to 4 court, giving Trump the power to make it a 9 to 0 Supreme Court?

Absolutely not.

The left and their fellow travelers need to keep in mind which group is likely to control the Supreme Court and exercise the Insurrection & Rebellion clause of Amendment XIV.

Once ‘Candy Man’ Prickster becomes the Ill-Annoy Guber, and the Soetoro Lie-Berry is built in Rahmabad, the Home Office of the Resistance Movement will soon be up and running. They will probably call the new center of sedition “The Center for Progressive Thought” or some other Orwellian name. There may even be the Ayers Workshop of Explosive Expression, the Alinsky Lecture Hall, and the Cloward-Piven Think Tank of Overwhelmed Social Programs.

“We can’t stop the conservatives and take over until their guns are confiscated.”

The founding fathers knew there’d be an obama come along.

“Insurrection & Rebellion clause of Amendment XIV.” We could only hope. Not betting on the doj to do anything to these people as intended by the founders who wanted to establish this country and keep it free. If we can.

What’s interesting is that Michelle’s memoir is set to be released in November. Re Barry Obama’s book release date..crickets.
