LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO OBAMA Minutes After He Hijacked Funeral For 5 Slain Cops…No One Saw THIS!!!
Tempers boiled over online when President Barack Obama chose to incorporate his gun control agenda into his remarks at a memorial service for the five police officers killed in Dallas last Thursday.
After listing the underfunding of government social programs and schools as part of the problem, Obama said, “We flood communities with so many guns that it is easier for a teenager to buy a Glock than get his hands on a computer or even a book.”
The response to Obama’s words on Twitter was prolific. Radio talk show host and gun rights supporter Dana Loesch tweeted:
Obama was actually giving a great speech before he turned it into a partisan political lecture on gun control, race, and policing.

Michelle Ray shared Loesch’s assessment:
America is racist and we need gun control. @Potus is incapable of even the most common decency.

As a child I’d walk to the library for a Dr. Seuss book and I had to make my way past dozens of glock salesmen.

Obama wrote his own speech today, according to the White House.

As reported by Western Journalism, the president has also been criticized for spending a significant portion of the speech sharing his views on racism in America.
“And so when African Americans from all walks of life, from different communities across the country, voice a growing despair over what they perceive to be unequal treatment; when study after study shows that whites and people of color experience the criminal justice system differently … we cannot simply turn away and dismiss those in peaceful protest as troublemakers or paranoid,” Obama said.
“We can’t simply dismiss it as a symptom of political correctness or reverse racism. To have your experience denied like that, dismissed by those in authority, dismissed perhaps even by your white friends and coworkers and fellow church members again and again and again — it hurts,” he added.
