So, in the wake of the Virginia shootings, Obama is frustrated that he has failed to pass gun control legislation? well, I have to admit I am glad about that.
You know what I'm frustrated about?
1. If this had been a white shooter and a black TV crew, the focus would be on racism and the rantings of the madman. It would have been another "black lives matter" moment.
2. Here we have a black shooter who left behind a long race-based rant about why these people deserved to be shot. Most of that race-based rationalization can be traced right back to the race-baiting approach of this administration, the fact that Obama has decided that it makes political sense for him and his party, to ally themselves with one side of the racial divide they have created. the reasons this madman cites are no more valid than were those of Dylan Roof.
3. Have we yet heard about hos this person obtained this firearm? Is it another failure of the NICS system or is it a case where no reasonable restrictions can stop a person who is committed to killing?
Be frustrated Mr. President - be very frustrated. Because you have decided to use such crises to pursue an agenda instead of trying to fix the real problems that exist, some that you yourself have exacerbated via your rhetoric. Keep thinking there is a magic and simple cure for the ills of this nation.
