Obama: Our Children’s Lives Are at Risk Because Guns Became a Partisan Issue
Breitbart ^ | 05/16/2023 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/16/2023 11:39:41 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former President Barack Obama said Tuesday on “CBS Mornings” that the United States was allowing our children’s lives to be at risk because gun ownership has become a partisan issue.

Host Nate Burelson asked, “Gun violence is the number one cause of death for children in this country. What is the radical solution? And do you believe there is a larger issue at hand that causes fractures among us in this country?”

Obama said, “We are unique among advanced, developed nations, in tolerating on a routine basis, gun violence in the form of shootings, mass shootings, suicides. You know in Australia you had one mass shooting, 50 years ago, they said we’re not doing that anymore. That is normally how you would expect a society to respond when your children are at risk.”

We’ve had guns in our nation for 240+ years.

It was never a problem before.......................

Guns became a partisan issue when the left decided to violate the law and ban them.

His children’s and children’s children’s lives are at risk because he did nothing to address black on black crime. He was uniquely positioned to make historical progress in ending the genocide in Chicago and elsewhere. He failed to act.

He blames guns not the underlying problem. He made some comment about car safety and seatbelts that has no connection to this issue. The analog would be ensure misfires don’t happen or safeties. It’s always been about the perp, not the weapon whether it’s a car or gun or knife or lead pipe. He is a coward who was too afraid to speak truth to his communities. Only they can fix the issues they face.

Our children’s lives are at risk because Fentanyl became a tool of the Marxist left.

Guns became a “partisan issue” when King George banned colonists from owning them. Thus the 2nd Amendmennt.

Obama: Our Children’s Lives Are at Risk Because Guns Became a Partisan Issue

I think this is correct, but not the way he meant it.

Its the partisan focus on guns always being the problem that has made up blind to solutions that would actually help save children.

He’s brilliant. You folks are missing something.

He doesn’t blame the right. He blames no one in particular for it becoming a partisan issue. No one on the left would accuse him of being partisan while the rest throw rocks.

So he’s a loser, marxist, the left’s bitter clinger, a ‘special’ hypocrite, Bambi, bath house putz. All in this post.

You folks need to get laid. Women would be glad to give it to him and you’re all jealous. Just find a way to win and quit wining.

No, our children’s lives are at risk because you Commie Rats blew up the nuclear family and discouraged teaching our kids right from wrong.

These urban children are dying because a huge percentage of them are born out of wedlock with no father present in their homes.

Without fathers, these children are doomed to live restless lives without morality, direction and discipline.

They become feral beings, realizing the men who fathered them do not carry any regard for what happens to them and have IRRESPONSIBLY left them to face little hope of meaningful lives and a high probability of their early, violent death.

Widespread ownership of firearms is REQUIRED in a society allowing this breeding of feral young people who see no alternative to violence as their means to extract their money and material possessions from others who become their targets as victims.

Knowing they are hated by the men who fathered and abandoned them, they turn that hate outwardly to extract some satisfaction in their lives as angry predators.

Black men (6% of the population) commit 50% of violent crime. We do not have gun problem we have a black problem.

He needs to STFU and go back banging his husband, or is he the receiver?
