Obama Stands On Bodies Of Pulse Victims, Blames Republicans, Conservatives For Terror Attack

Ben Shapiro

On Thursday, President Obama descended on Orlando, Florida to push for gun control while standing on the still-warm bodies of those slain by an open jihadist at Pulse nightclub. Posturing self-righteously, Obama called the jihadist at issue a “lone wolf” and added, “Our politics have conspired to make it as easy as possible for a terrorist – or just a disturbed individual like those in Aurora or Newtown – to buy extraordinarily powerful weapons, and they can do so legally.” He said that “the meaning of liberty” did not require “these repeated tragedies.”

Actually, our Constitution has guaranteed us the right to defend ourselves through gun ownership, and to require due process of law before the government can strip of that right. But to Obama, that’s a “conspiracy” designed to make life easier for the world’s worst people. And our “liberty” doesn’t require the exercise of the Second Amendment or due process rights.
