America is hit with an Islamic terrorist attack in San Bernardino, on the heels of an Islamic terrorist attack in Paris. ISIS is expanding. There are many, many reports of ISIS members attempting to situated themselves among the Syrian refugees coming to America (and Europe, of course). Many could end up in Canada, and easily cross the border into the U.S. Hardcore Islam is attempting to spread itself around the world, including to America, often violently. Is Mr. Obama particularly concerned with this? Nope. He wants to go after American citizens ability to defend themselves
(The Hill) President Obama on Wednesday met with former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, an ally of the White House on gun control.
The meeting, which was not on the president’s public schedule, comes as he is weighing new executive action on guns in response to a series of mass shootings that have marred his presidency.
Several of these shootings have been performed by hardcore Islamists, such as Hasan Nidal. Instead of worrying about the threat from radical Islam, Obama is concerned with finding ways to restrict law abiding citizens from having guns. This particularly effects women, who apparently think that carrying a rape whistle or peeing themselves are poor substitutes for protection if they are assaulted. The number of women who carry handguns, as well as purchase those scary looking “assault rifles”, has exploded in recent years.
Obama huddled with Bloomberg “as part of the administration’s continuing push to address gun violence in America,” the White House said in a statement.
“The two discussed ways to keep guns out of the hands of those who should not have access to them and what more could be done at the state and local level to help address gun violence in America,” the White House added.
The problem here is that they focus on keeping guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens, not criminals. The laws/executive actions proposed would barely affect criminals, if they would affect them at all. Criminals have had great respect for “Gun Free Zones”, eh?
But, it is fantastic that guys who are surrounded by people who carry guns, many of which would be on the previously sunsetted assault weapons ban and on the Democratic Party proposal for a new assault weapons ban. And many which are simply illegal for private citizens to own, being fully automatic weapons. The assault weapons ban in California didn’t work, nor did the fact that California has some of the most draconian gun laws in the nation.
On the bright side, this means more people will purchase more guns. Has anyone checked to see of Obama and Bloomberg have financial stakes in gun companies? Anyhow, this dovetails into another push the White House is making
(Washington Examiner) The White House on Monday began “staff-level” meetings and calls with religious leaders to discuss how they could help combat growing anti-Muslim sentiment in the United States.
Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to President Obama, and Melissa Rogers, who leads the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, held a conference call with leaders of all religions from across the country.
“Spoke with 890+ religious leaders to thank them for speaking up for every American’s right to be free from religious discrimination,” Jarrett tweeted on Monday.
This is where the White House goes after a deadly terrorist attack in San Bernardino. Little concern with protecting the citizens of America from the growing threat of hardcore Islam, but lots because some people might get their feelings hurt.
BTW, does anyone remember a White House push to make sure Conservatives weren’t bullied? To make sure there is no discrimination against Conservatives/Republicans? Or how about Jews, who are still the largest recipients of hate crimes in the country?
Double BTW: has the White House, with Obama at the helm, shown any concern over Blacks gunning down each other in the streets of cities run by the Democratic Party?
Triple BTW: When does Obama declare the White House a gun free zone?
