We’re not loving them enough
First of all, let me just mention that ‘gun control is learning how to hit your target’. That said, let’s examine, ‘dissect’ if you will, the reheated, refried, retried, liberal leftovers of the Barak Hussein Obama campaign. Gun control is one of those quintissential liberal issues that get regurgutated again and again as THE answer to inner city violence. Obama takes the easy way out (likely for the liberal base during the primaries.)
…more must be done to end a social ill that is “sickening the soul of this nation.”
Obama told churchgoers at the Vernon Park Church of God on Chicago’s South Side that too many young lives are being claimed by violence and more must be done to combat the problem.
“From South Central L.A. to Newark, New Jersey, there’s an epidemic of violence that’s sickening the soul of this nation,” the Illinois senator told the crowd. “The violence is unacceptable and it’s got to stop.”
Nearly three dozen Chicago students have been killed this year, according to Chicago Public Schools. Obama said that figure is higher than the number of Illinois serviceman who’ve died in Iraq in 2007. ~apnews.myway.com
The answer to gang violence? Don’t let them buy guns! It’s so simple. Why didn’t I think of that? Oh, and we also need to, “love them more.”
“We need to express our collective anger through collective action,” Obama said.
He said the government needs to permanently reinstate an assault weapons ban and close regulatory loopholes that protect unscrupulous gun dealers.
He also said government should support and fund more after-school programs to keep kids off the streets. But some of the burden must also be shouldered by residents who need to do more to raise and protect at-risk children, he added.
“We have an entire generation of young men in our society who have become products of violence, and we are going to have to break the cycle,” Obama said. “There are too many young men out there who have gone down the wrong path.”
He later added, “There’s a reason they go out and shoot each other, because they don’t love themselves. And the reason they don’t love themselves is because we are not loving them enough.” ~apnews.myway.com
Brilliant. The future (or is it past?) of the Democratic Party.
