Did you hear about Obama's Gun-Law Town Hall? Of course you didn't, he packed the house with victims of gun-violence. However, I'm sure Obama didn't expect one of the victims take the floor and take him to school over his plan or tell him that his "genius plan" wouldn't stop mass shootings.
Taya Kyle,
widow of U.S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle, was in the
audience to hear what Obama had to say about his executive action on gun laws
and she questioned the reasoning behind this move. Read more Examiner
Taya Kyle
told Obama of those who have committed mass shootings to date:
“I don’t know that any of them would have been stopped by a background check,”
“I don’t know that any of them would have been stopped by a background check,”
“So I
think part it we have to recognize is we cannot outlaw murder,” she said.
“Because the people who are murdering are breaking the law, but they also don’t
have the moral code that we have. So they can do the same amount of damage with
a pipe bomb. The problem is that they want to murder.”
"Why don't
we celebrate the fact that we are at an all time low murder rate in America,
which has been steadily going down?"
Obama tried to refute her "your plan won't work to stop mass
killings" with his, "there is a way
for us to set up a system where you, a responsible gun owner ... can have a
firearm to protect yourself, but where it is much harder for somebody to fill
up a car with guns and sell them to 13-year-old kids on the streets."
However, what he's not telling you is, if someone is "selling
a gun to a 13-year-old" they are breaking the law. Therefore, they aren't
a law-abiding-gun owner or gun seller and there are already laws on the books
for this, with background checks. So this plan still isn't going to
work.
Oh wait, we're arguing with liberals and we're making Mrs. Kyle's
point. We can't outlaw murder or bring these morally bankrupt people up
to our level of morality. If they want to kill, they are going to find a way, they don't need a gun and they certainly won't obtain one legally. Felons aren't supposed to possess a gun, by law, and yet we hear about felons killing people all the time. Just planning to commit a murder is against the law ... Conspiracy to commit murder,
attempted murder ... any of this ring a bell with you liberals, or does Obama
need to make another law that we already have on the books?
Did you catch the fact that Obama did admit that, "What
you said about murder rates and violent crime in general, is something we don't
celebrate enough. Violent crime has been
steadily declining across America for quite some time. You wouldn't always know it by watching
television. Most cities are safer than they were 10 years ago or 20 years ago."
However, Obama wouldn't admit that guns and the
right to bear arms are the reason murder and violence was steadily on the decline, or the fact that we already have laws requiring background checks.
If guns don't make people safer or taking them away make people less safe, maybe he should take a look at Chicago and ask them if they feel "safer" then they were 20 years ago, when they lost their right to bare arms and
defend themselves. If gun control worked, why are there murders in prison, where only security carry guns?
If guns don't make people safer or taking them away make people less safe, maybe he should take a look at Chicago and ask them if they feel "safer" then they were 20 years ago, when they lost their right to bare arms and
defend themselves.
