Obama's Hypocrisy Problem on Guns


Posted: Dec 27, 2012

3 part article.

This guy Denninger's position that Obama's children - are wonderfully safe while he has to

[ In Reply To ..]
constantly worry and pack guns so be the "first responder" to keep his children alive is beyond ridiculous.

Obama's children, and wife, are constantly threatened with death by people who hate them because he's their father, they're little black girls living in the White House, or whatever else vicious and demented minds can come up with. Despicable but true.

This guy would stop blowing hot air, using his children as an excuse, and really start understanding fear if a very fallible federal cordon of protection was all that stood between them and people who don't just threaten assassination but too often really intend to come kill them.

Not exactly true about Obama death threats - backwards typist

Every president received death threats but usually you never heard about them unless someone was arrested for it. Why they publicize Obama's death threats as if he's the only one who ever received any, is beyond me. I think I know why, but won't say because I'll be called a liar.

We know about threats to current presidents mostly - from what's been disclosed about

[ In Reply To ..]
threats to their predecessors once theyre safely out of office. Reasons are mainly twofold. One is that talking about violence toward the President tends to generate more of the same; tamping it down is part of keeping them safe. The second is that presidents don't want national attention directed away from what they believe is important, what they're trying to achieve, to chitchat about death threats.

The Obama administration is no exception. The vast, vast majority of the daily flow of death and other sick threats are kept secret, but of course we know that the election of our first black President has generated an especially virulent flare of hatred.
True, true, but don't you think these shootings should also be toned down? - backwards typist

The news media pays attention to these shootings over and over again for days or weeks, which seems to lead to copycat killings every time...and also every murder-suicide seems to garner extra large headlines for a while.

Once the news dies down, so does the copycat shootings. I think the media should pay less attention to these items. Don't you?
Yes, I agree. And so do they, tho not always in action. Less - IS made of killers now, but experts
[ In Reply To ..]
talk about the need for even less attention paid to the killers themselves.

Maybe "guns are the problem" should apply - to everyone equally

[ In Reply To ..]
If guns are the problem for everyone else, how come they aren't a problem at the school the President's kids go to? The school has armed guards even without his kids there.

Some are more equal than others, looks like. Despite that "All men are created equal" thing I learned about.

His kids are a target. - RC

So were the kids in Newtown. We just didn't - know in advance
[ In Reply To ..]
But the kids at Newtown were "protected" by not having eeeevil guns on campus.

Because more guns aren't the answer, apparently, when gunman come to kill kids. The fact that having an armed guard didn't work real well once or twice... Well, it doesn't work AT ALL *not* to have an armed guard, does it?
I am in favor of having officers on campus. - RC
[ In Reply To ..]
So I'm not sure what we're going to accomplish here.

Some schools can afford it, some can't. Do I think it's a good idea to give some mall security kid a gun and put him in a school? I do not. Do I think the teachers should carry? No. If the school/county can afford an officer at the school, I think every school would benefit from an Officer Bob. But not all of them can.
Rich kids can live. Poor kids can die. - Same old, same old. n/t

Very good article. It contains very reasonable - backwards typist

[ In Reply To ..]
and truthful reasons why half our representatives are only focused on guns and gun control and not the real facts of each shooting and/or why and how the shooters obtained the guns, or how were stopped.

It also makes you realize that the writer was correct when stating that the police are usually 5 minutes or more away from where a crime is being committed. I watched 1 or 2 episodes of Panic 911 and the time on those incidents are usually 10 minutes or more, even in large cities.

dreadful, shameless screed - NM

Guns And Intrinsic Danger. Or, "guns Don't Kill, People Kill"Dec 15, 2012
If I were at a party, left the adults and put a nerf ball in the familiy room where the children were playing, nobody'd think anything of it. If I put a loaded gun in there, every adult would rush to get it before the children did. THAT IS BECAUSE GUNS ARE INTRINSICALLY DANGEROUS. The only thing that changed was the presence of a gun, but no one would claim it was actually the children who were dangerous. Suicides by gun are much more likely to result in death than ANY of the other usual ...
