Obama Claims It’s Easier To Buy Guns Than Books And Vegetables; Machine Guns In Bars [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/06/2015 | Chuck Ross

Citing his failure to pass stricter gun laws in 2013, President Obama used dramatic language to discuss the gun debate on Friday.

“It is hard to reduce the easy availability of guns,” Obama complained during a town hall meeting at South Carolina’s Benedict College.

“As long as you can go on into some neighborhoods, and it’s easier for you to buy a firearm than it is for you to buy a book, there are neighborhoods where it’s easier for you to buy a handgun and clips than it is for you to buy a fresh vegetable,” Obama continued. “As long as that’s the case, we’re going to continue to see unnecessary violence.”

“Despite the failure of Congress to act, despite the failure of too many state legislators to act, in fact, some place it is goes in the opposite direction, we should have firearms in kindergarten and we should have machine guns and you know in bars and you think I’m exaggerating, you look at some of these laws that come up,” he said.

Obama was specifically referencing a 2013 effort to expand background checks for gun purchases.

“I thought after what happened at Sandy Hook would make us think about it,” Obama said. “You would have thought that’s got to be enough of a motivator. But we couldn’t get it done.”

With the cost of a REVOLVER, new in the box, and NOT a major name brand, being near $300.00, it seems that the book that 0bama is alluding to, is something that his listeners could never fathom, a full size Oxford dictionary.

Without the right federal license, you cannot buy a machine gun, and have not been able to do so, for many, many years!!!

I’m just saying there sure seem to be some very questionable shootings that are highly publicized and politicized with shooters whose backgrounds are suspicious. In many of them they almost seem staged and the timing coinciding right before key legislation makes you scratch your head and wonder especially if you take into account that persons that were potential thorns in The One’s side seem to have just died for one reason or another whether it be suicide, heart attack, car crash, or plane crash. I do believe there is a special team that is activated to stage shootings to influence public opinion about private gun ownwership / 2nd amendment issues. I think a lot of people have suspected it for some time. I believe someone on that team will eventually come forward after the potential for a burn nitivpce evaporates.

Obama hasn’t bought a book or vegetables in decades. Someone else does it for him, but his home “hood” is a rich man’s paradise so even if he did go out to shop, he wouldn’t need a gun.

Besides that, he’d have Michele walking a couple yards in front of him. Nobody wants to take her on, esp. when she is not on a leash.

After reading/hearing what Obama said at Benedict College, does anyone really think that he is not out of his fucking mind, batshit crazy, a walking lunatic, sociopath, and all-around lying ignoramous?

What? Oh, “he sounds like a typical Democrat/liberal/Marxist”. NEVERMIND!

I wonder what neighborhoods he speaks of and the makeup of the population of those neighborhoods...
