Former President Barack Obama on Tuesday called for stricter gun laws following the mass shooting in Colorado, bemoaning what he called a national tolerance for "these kinds of random, senseless acts."
Obama said in a statement that he and former first lady Michelle Obama are grieving with the families of the victims of Monday's massacre in Boulder, but also said they "are also feeling a deep, familiar outrage" for these types of tragedies.
The statement by the former president came shortly before President Joe Biden publicly commented on the shooting, which took place at grocery store and left 10 dead, including a police officer.
"It is long past time for those with the power to fight this epidemic of gun violence to do so. It will take time to root out the disaffection, racism and misogyny that fuels so many of these senseless acts of violence," Obama said. "But we can make it harder for those with hate in their hearts to buy weapons of war."
"We can overcome opposition by cowardly politicians and the pressure of a gun lobby that opposes any limit on the ability of anyone to assemble an arsenal. We can, and we must," he said.

Yeah, senseless jihad from your fellow mohammedans, Barry.
Were there any common denominators among the victims? For instance, were they all Asian? Were they all black? Were they all Mexican? Were they all....mmmmm, I don’t know....white?
Exactly
Shove it, Dorkbama.
You are an ignorant male slut.
Well said.
Banning Muslims would probably be more effective.🙄🤔
100%. Harris is his hand picked backup. Obama is in his third term. He commandeered the election IMO.
That was not random gun violence. That was intentionsl muzzie killing of non-muzzies.
As soon as your SS peeps give up their weapons, homeboy.
We're still in 1st place!
Looks like I’m not the only one who thought that.🤔
I saw that Philly is leading Chicago so far this year. Might be a race to see who’s on top.
Odungo just has to put his 2 cents in, believing he is the “It” boy. When I want to hear from a traitorous commie idiot, Barry-boy, I’ll be sure to call ya. Word of warning: don’t hold your breath.
Ok disarm the FBI
If they were all white, and Christian, no media coverage except for the poor misguided muzzie shooter.
random and senseless will always be with us
what O is begging for is directed and sensible
FU Bark.
