I'm kinda leaning toward TECSHARE's opinion on this one. It just seems mighty odd to me that Obama didn't waste any time at all making some sort of passive-aggressive dig about gun control. Though I'm not truly surprised. I'm seeing this as more of a false flag type of event to rev up more racism talk and try once again to revive the failed attempts at gun control. I wonder how long it's going to be before the good "Reverend" Sharpton speaks his anti-white hatred?
One thing I find strange is that the whole gun control talk seemed to be aimed primarily at restricting or otherwise making it harder to jump through hoops for those who are willing to do so - i.e. relatively law abiding people who are more likely to face such restrictions and bow to them in the first place. Incidentally, white population is a large percentage of this, along with other law abiding minorities.
On the other hand, why the fck would non-americans and criminals acquire guns legally?
It really does seem like this is a campaign geared specifically against law abiding gun owners by magnifying each instances of 'mass murder' while dozens are mass murdered everyday in american cities by criminal elements, yet no one seem to be talking about them. Weak are left prey to the violent in those environments, yet no righteous gun control advocates dare broach the subject because it would be 'racist/insensitive' or some other sad excuse. At this point, it is increasingly getting to the point where either the government and specifically this president and gun-control crowd is incapable of dealing with real gun threats, or worse purposely ignoring the race based criminality and gun violence in favor of what they apparently believe are softer targets with an unspoken aim of disarming those who they don't like.
The first issue that needs to be addressed before tightening any gun control law is going after the illegal small arms proliferation, one that are playing and spreading completely outside of the law. No amount of tightening gun regulations will keep guns away from those that cause the most damage on a daily basis and kill far more per year than these occasional nutjobs.
It's indeed telling how a drug-induced patsy conspiracy theory actually starts sounding plausible compared to what's coming out of obama's mouth everyday.
