Obama: In Some Neighborhoods Itâs Cheaper and Easier For Kids To Get a Gun Than a Book Jenna Lifhits

In a CNN town tall special on Thursday, President Obama said that there are some neighborhoods in America where it is easier and cheaper for kids to purchase guns than books.
âPart of the reason, I think, that this ends up being such a difficult issue, is because people occupy different realities,â he said. âThere are a whole bunch of law-abiding citizens who have grown up hunting with their dad or going to the shooting range, and are responsible gun owners, and then there is the reality that there are neighborhoods around the country where it is easier for a 12 or 13-year-old to purchase a gun, and cheaper, than it is for them to get a book.â

In those neighborhoods you could have a book turret on every corner that shoots free books in every direction 24 hours a day, and those 12-13 year olds would still have no books
Mostly Democrat - controlled neighborhoods
It must also be cheaper and easier to get a tattoo, judging from the looks of em.
Where are all the fact checkers? /crickets
He also quipped this week that as someone who taught Constitutional law ONCE, he knows little about the Second Amendment.
There. Fixed it.
“Where are all the fact checkers? /crickets”
Facts do not need to be checked if a statement is uttered by a (D), they are deemed to be automatically true.
He just makes up his own statistics. Like the phony 30,000 number of people killed by guns, and left out that 20,000 were suicides.
378 days to go.
IS.HE.GONE.YET?
The man has no idea what it is like to live in the street or in a ghetto, or a blue collar working area.
Why doesn’t he and his elitist ilk go and live there for a month and see how we have to put up with the crap.
LOL when you find out when these neighborhoods have these sales let me know , because I ‘d sure like to buy .

Pray America wakes
Or a Bible.
Easier, maybe. Cheaper? Unlikely. You can a paperback book in a drugstore or supermarket for under $10.00, I doubt you can get any kind of gun for that price.
Books are cheap in thrift stores. Free in libraries. The problem is that kids in those neighborhoods WANT guns not books. After Katrina bookstores and libraries were not where looters shopped. If guns are so cheap why would any non thug kid buy one instead of say...candy?
I don't know about that -- I keep looking for my local taxpayer-funded firearms lending library, but I haven't found it yet.
If I’ve told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times - avoid flagrant hyperbole!
So, lets make it cheaper and easier to get the books and leave the guns alone?
Like Chicago neighborhoods with “community organizers”?
Eschew obfuscation!
In these neighborhoods the kids know how to shoot a gun. But they don’t know how to read a book. Therefore, there’s no market.
There are things like libraries but the libs ruined them also......................
