President Barack Obama on Monday wearily lamented “yet another mass shooting,” this time in the nation’s capital where the debate that raged earlier this year over tightening firearms laws has stalled amid opposition from gun-rights advocates.
The shooting at the Washington Navy Yard came a week after voters recalled two Colorado legislators who supported tougher gun measures, illustrating the strong political headwinds faced by lawmakers seeking to respond to the violence. …

Yes, it was horribly lamentable; not one victim was armed.
After Colorado, I sincerely hope that Obama pushes his party to move on gun control again. He’s dumb enough.
You would think the safest places to be would be a military base, but alas those trained to handle weapons are not trusted with them in their own house.
In Obama’s (The First undocumented Moslem Tyrant by Fraud)
America, only terrorists, savages, and KNOWN DHS-released
and DO”J”-protected murderers and rapists are allowed
weapons.
America is helpless, as the US Congress does/did NOTHING.
If these guys turn out to be Moslems, can we ban them too?

This happened on what was supposedly a “secure” facility. More government run incompetence.
You’d think that a criminal would at least obey a sign, sheese!

Wonder if he is a convert to the religion of peace. Er was.
What luck for the gun grabbers!

Al Qaeda Leader Calls for New Attacks on US (Photo Credit: AFP/Getty Images)
(BEIRUT) — Al Qaeda failed to make good on threats to strike U.S. diplomatic outposts on this week’s 9/11 anniversary, but in a new audio tape, the leader of the besieged terror network renewed his plea to followers to strike at American interests — and to aim lower, if necessary, with individual acts of violence.
...
In the new Arabic-language tape, released Sept. 12 Zawahiri chortled over the “blessed” 2001 strikes that left thousands of Americans dead, as well as April’s Boston Marathon bombings that killed just three Americans, which he claimed was proof of a Muslim “uprising.”
“Keeping America in tension and anticipation only costs a few disparate attacks here and there,” Zawahiri explained during his 72-minute recording. “These disparate strikes can be done by one brother or a few of the brothers.”
Anyone not worthy of being around firearms shouldn’t be on a military base anyway, contractor or otherwise. But that would put a serious dent in ‘diversity’ and affect people like.. Well.. Like Aaron Alexis. Also, 0bama has flooded our military with people WHO HATE THE MILITARY and view it only as a source of income.
Anyone not worthy of being around firearms shouldn’t be on the streets at all.
P.S. I had to work at an F/A-18 base once, and was proud to be there and proud to be among Marines. 0bama doesn’t exude an ounce of pride in America. He never defends her, either. He just bashes her and hires more bashers.
Obama said he will bring the perps to justice [if there is more than one].
But ... he also said that about Benghazi ...
His name was A-A-Ron. He was “from” Texas. It’s obvious he would be a right wing gun owner. /s
