I find it ironic that so many are bashing the POTUS for his non-thought out speech after the Charleston Shootings where he minimalized the 9 lives for the sake of his agenda (an agenda I support but not in that situation). BUT then those same critics are posting as responses, guns are like cars and spoons (yes spoons!) they are instruments that cause death, but not the cause.
How is that any different than Obama's insensitive comments?
A spoon was created to help us eat foods like soup and ice cream. A car was created to get us from place to place in a quicker manner. A gun was created to give us the edge in fighting and yes killing people. So no, I don't think a spoon or a car is the same as a gun. Sorry. Your gun justifying agenda needs more solid examples. The Constitution you say? Yeah, that's better than a spoon without a doubt. But that constitution which some think is the infallible fabric of America, has had how many amendments? Including giving voting rights to women and freedom from slavery for minorities. So excuse me if I don't mind admitting that it can be tweaked or amended from its original form from hundreds of years ago. We had rifles and small hand guns at best back then. Times have changed.
The Charleston shootings were a hate crime. The result of a sick and depraved heart. Don't use it to support either side of the gun argument. Poor parenting and hate, that is what that was, don't get it twisted. Our response should be love. For the families of those slain and a church that has a gaping hole that will never be forgotten or replaced. That should be the focus. Instead of a race war, WHAT IF we embrace race?
