From Karl Denniger on a guest post at theburningplatform.com:
Obama has once again tried to turn a nutjob shooting people at a Planned Parenthood clinic into a call for “more gun control”, as if somehow passing more laws against murder will make murder less prevalent.
May I remind you that you may only prosecute someone for the first murder, no matter how many they commit or how many other crimes they commit before, during or after, because you can only serve one life sentence or give someone the death penalty once.
It is therefore idiotic to pretend that passing more laws on guns (the 50,000+ already on the books aren’t enough?) will stop murders. A person willing to commit murder has already decided that the law is no object to their evil intentions, irrespective of whether you like it or not.
But then there’s this case — a 9 year old boy shot by a gang because the gang didn’t like his Dad.
Where’s Obama on that calling for these criminal gangs to be dismantled and every single one of the people involved being tossed in the hoosegow for life?
And why isn’t that shooting his poster child for gun control?
You know the answer, right?
It has a lot to do with the race of the shooter in the two incidents….. and the utterly common incidence of the second sort of thing in Chicago — where a nutjob shooting up a Planned Parenthood clinic is — fortunately — very rare.
Obama’s sons are always ignored when they do things like this, aren’t they?
