WH: Death of girl who performed
at inaugural underscores need
for gun control

Washington Examiner, by Joel Gehrke

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/30/2013 2:07:58 PM

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney lamented the murder of a teenage girl who performed in her school band at President Obama’s inauguration last week, adding that her death underscored the need to implement the administration’s proposals to reduce gun violence. “The president and the first lady’s thoughts and prayers are with the family of Hadiya Pendleton,” Carney replied when asked if Obama had heard of the shooting. “If we can save even one child’s life, we have an obligation to try when it comes to the scourge of gun violence . . .

Comments:
They will never, ever acknowledge that even with the strongest laws on gun control in Chicago it will never stop what is happening there. Their hypocrisy is disgusting.

Amazing how they never have said anything about the other shootings in Chicago

Murder is against the law. Why do liberals assume the savage perps will obediently follow gun laws when they want to kill people?

Look up how this young girl died.

It was another inner city youth who was shooting at other inner city youths.

Will someone tell me which of the administration´s proposals would have prevented this?

I mean... this punk was willing to kill someone... which oddly enough is against the law. Would he have obeyed other laws?

I bet the gun was stolen.

None of the Democrats are talking about the violence in Chicago. They are only concerned about resricting guns for the law abiding citizens.

The American people can see through this lie.

Chicago already has very restrictive gun laws, so what good will MORE laws do to those who break the law with impunity????????

Her death is proof that gun laws today nor the unconstitutional one the Corrupt Party wants will work.

Passing more worthless laws makes her death meaningless.

So she gets shot in the city with the strictest gun laws in the country and they say we need more gun control.

We do live in Bizarro World.

The problem is criminals and dangerous crazy people will not obey gun control laws. Chicago has more gun control laws then anyplace and a lot of armed criminals and a few dangerous crazy people with access to firearms there could care less.

FTA: "If we can save even one child’s life, we have an obligation...."

a. So, any possible steps that might "save one child´s life" should be taken? Regardless of cost? Regardless of the effects on everything else?

b. Any kids killed by drunk drivers this year? But alcohol sales continue? But under the "even one child" standard, we should have boarded-up beer/wine/liquor stores as far as the eye can see. For that matter, maybe we should ban cars, too. Protect that magic "one child" on two fronts from a traffic death.

A suspicious person might wonder whether their poses and proposals are insincere? Mybe even intended to distract from some other goal[s] they have?

#7: I agree, Jay Carney´s f-a-a-r-r-r from the sharpest knife, but is calling him "a child" over the line? [Though if so, it´s still OK with me.]

Carney: “If we can save even one child’s life, we have an obligation to try when it comes to the scourge of..."

How about the illegal who had been deported two or three times, snuck back to his girlfriends house again, and thanked her by raping and murdering her four year old little girl?
Wouldn´t stricter enforcement of border security have maybe saved her life? Or doesn´t she count to the obysmal won?

Here´s what I would confidently wager: the guy who did the killing was not a member of the NRA and the gun used was not obtained legally. So why are NRA members who obtain guns legally the bad guys who need to be punished by new restrictive gun laws while Chicago gang-bangers get a pass?

The girl was killed in Chicago. WHO has more gun control than CHICAGO? There Jay - see how well that works? Yep that´s what we need all right. /s

Chicago has the most restrictive gun control laws in the country and has more murders than Afghanistan has war casualties. How can anyone who is not drunk or on drugs looks at those facts and think that gun control laws work?

If you want to stop murders in Chicago you need Gang Control not Gun Control. The Chicago street gangs are running wild just as Al Capone´s gang did during Prohibition.

The violence in Chicago is about drug turf wars and the police are not allowed by our Mayor and City Council to do anything about it.

O.K. Carney, how about you guys try a trial run on gun control. Say, pick a big city like, oh I don´t know, Chicago for instance, and then pass a law banning all guns and see how that works in stopping gun crime....oh, wait, my bad.

Take guns away from black people in Chicago. There, fixed the problem.

Two generations of systematic dismantling of the social and family structure of inner city blacks by the Liberals´ welfare state is, to put it bluntly, the one and only culprit here.
No wonder they keep looking for excuses from ammo clips to global warming to Sarah Palin.

Let´s have President Skeet Shooter go to Chciago and clean up this gun mess. It´s his neighborhood

The Skeet in Chief could ride the streets on his girl´s bike, his trusty Camp David 12 gauge resting menacingly next to the chromed bell. He would be responsible for stopping gangsta types to ask for their gun permits. The gang bangers will surely comply with Obama´s commands, especially when they spot his mom jeans and silly helmet. And, they´ll offer the traditional crack peace pipe. "Good stuff, dudes". "Thanks, President Skeet Shooter."

Rahm Emanuel needs to talk to Rudolph Guiliani--if he dares. Before Mayor Guiliani, NYC was a violent horror show of murder, drugs, and thieves. Now, it has the lowest murder rate since JKF was president.
Why? What did Mayor Guiliani do that Mayor Emanuel needs to do?
Taking guns away from law-abiding citizens will not stop the murderers in Chicago. And, it guarantees the gang-bangers will be armed.

Terminal violence, one criminal against one human being or a thousand, has nothing whatsoever to do with the weapon. It has everything to do with the criminal, the criminal mind, the insanity, the baseness, the willingness to kill, the need to kill, no matter what the weapon down to hands, that is the point, as well as the inability of the victim to defend his or herself.

Focus on the criminal and all of the above and leave the law abiding citizen the hell alone to defend his/herself Bow-Boy.

We live in a climate of killers a vast majority of whom are not getting what they need: put down without delay. Instead, defense lawyers are living off these same killers for years.

You are a murderer, so why should it matter to you how she died. Next time just send her to Benghazi. Two faced hypocrite.

Of course none of the white house press pool followed up or pointed out these obvious facts. They just obediently scribbled the talking point and rushed to print.

We need to forget about the politicians and focus our anger and energy on the press. That is the ROOT of the problem - the politicians like Obama are only just the fruit.

Einstien said once "Insanity is doing the same thing repeatidly, expecting different results". Is this president truly that insane? Appears such is the case. There is no city in this nation as dangerous as Barack Obama´s Chicago, with all it´s severe gun control laws and it´s corrupt police department. Why should any sane person listen to someone who created that situation in Chicago as they propose to also "fix America´s gun crime problem"? The man´s idiocy is beyond redemption.

#3, we see through the obvious lies, but sadly a lot of the American people do not. A lot of people do not have reasoning skills. They cannot think logically. So, if someone says gun control would have prevented this girl from being killed, they believe it. We know better because we are not stupid and we haven´t been destroyed by today´s government school system which has been deliberately dumbed down and turned into leftist indoctrination centers.

Quelle surprise, it´s Chicago. And unless she was killed by a semiautomatic with a high-capacity magazine, this, sad as it is, has nothing to do with an AWB. Here´s an idea -- somebody should sue Rahm for gross malfeasance for failing to protect citizens. Probably could get him under RICO, too, for conspiracy to endanger.

America´s 100 million cable and satellite subscribers are forced to pay ever-higher bills for a growing number of channels they do not watch. The American people are being ripped off. Meanwhile, services such as iTunes and Netflix have led a revolution in how consumers purchase and experience music and video entertainment. They have upended entire industries to allow consumers to buy digital content where they want, when they want. Amid all this change, two entrenched interests — the cable television and video programming industries — have teamed up to use federal regulations to stack the deck against consumers.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama is a little uneasy with the way journalists have been dragged into the Justice Department’s aggressive pursuit of national security leak investigations. In fact, he has ordered Attorney General Eric Holder to conduct a 45-day review of the department’s guidelines on the issue. That bit of news was buried in the middle of the president’s hourlong speech today at National Defense University. “Journalists should not be at legal risk for doing their jobs,” President Obama said. “Our focus must be on those who break the law.” And then the news: “I have raised these issues with

Anthony Weiner’s nascent mayoral campaign is off to a rough start. Weiner made his candidacy for mayor of New York official in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, and since then there’s no indication that the process is going particularly well. The former rising star in the Democratic Party can’t shake the scandal that forced him to resign from Congress, and he may be throwing fuel on the fire. Asked this morning whether there was another shoe to drop in the sextweeting scandal that ousted him, Weiner admitted, Well, yeah.

White House press secretary Jay Carney could only explain his problems on Wednesday by telling reporters, "[T]here are a lot of you, and you´re good at your jobs and you´re smart." As easy as it might be for Carney to lob such insincere praise at former journalistic colleagues, such posterior osculations must be embarrassing for a White House so accustomed to having the press in its back pocket. Carney´s job has become more difficult in the past two weeks. Where his explanations were accepted at face value in the past, he is now met with deep skepticism. Suddenly, the

WASHINGTON – First she refused to testify. Now Lois Lerner, the IRS official at the center of the agency scandal, is refusing to resign, according to a top Republican senator. Sources confirmed to Fox News earlier Thursday that Lerner, the head of the IRS division that oversaw the unit targeting conservative groups, had been placed on administrative leave, with pay. But Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, claimed she was only put in that status after refusing to step down. He said the commissioner was in his right to demand her resignation, and said taxpayers

Former Rep.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies!
