That read like an Onion.com article. I can't believe he is so out of touch with reality.

Hey Moron did you ever notice that when ever there is a mass shooting, and that the bodies aren't even all counted or cold and you are already barking for more gun control.

They are ABSO-Farking-ING clueless!!!

no...they know exactly what's going on. they're just embarrassed by it and deflecting.

I have faith in my leader now more than ever

 

[Infinite Jester]

There's nothing "ironic" about it Josh. Its cause and effect. I thought you had to be edumacated to be a press secretary.

 

[Dadstoys]

The fact he claims they have no idea why just shows what total disconnect there is from reality.
On a brighter note, I stopped by my local fun store and they told me that the AR's that have been collecting dust most of the summer are flying off the shelves.
And a lot of carry handguns as well.

Way to boost the economy there big O.

 

[MachineHead]

When he talks he reminds me of "Eek the Cat". Something about the quasi-lateral lisp.

Drip , drip, drip, it's like they want to pour gas on the fire ! I don't think that the powers to be are that dumb to not see what is happening. It's just a matter of time till things run out of control,...... unless that 's some form of end game ? Go figure ....

"The more that we see this kind of violence on our streets, the more people go out and buy guns,” said White House press secretary Josh Earnest. “That is both ironic and tragic.”

ugh...

Yep, if they're going to act, they need to act now. The longer they wait the more powerful their enemy becomes

 

[just jim]

Called it the Whitehut because it must be a hut with no communication. Little over a year to go...

It doesn't appear that he is aware of illegal straw purchases either.

“In some cases these are individuals who believe that they need to buy a gun so that they can better protect themselves,” he said. “In some cases because it’s Black Friday, they probably are going and purchasing a gift for a friend or a loved one who is a gun enthusiast. I’m just pointing out that there are already an astonishing number of guns on the streets of America and far too many innocent Americans who are being killed by them.”

What's wrong with purchasing a gift?

Gun Owners for Gun Control, a progressive group, responded with praise to the news that Mr. Obama is readying executive action on background checks.

“We applaud President Obama for reportedly preparing to expand background checks on gun sales without waiting for Congress,” the group said in a statement. “As gun owners, we wholeheartedly support executive action to strengthen background checks as a necessary first step to address the epidemic of gun violence in America.”

Not sure if serious...and Captain Picard facepalm, all in one.

What the actual F?

 

[Infinite Jester]

I keep looking out the window, and still no guns on the street. Am I living in the wrong neighborhood?

These meatheads don't even have a website.

ETA: looks like it's a moveon..org entity.:

After the shooting at Umpqua Community College in Oregon last month, MoveOn launched Gun Owners for Gun Control, which now claims some 32,000 members. They were also invited to Washington, D.C. next week for meetings with the White House, members of Congress, and the media

[FormerlyIndifferent]

Mr. Obama has called on Congress to ban semiautomatic “assault” rifles and to ban people who are on the government’s “no-fly” terrorist watch list from purchasing guns. Mr. Earnest said Thursday that he isn’t aware of any perpetrators of mass shootings in the U.S. who were on the no-fly list.

Nothing, if it's done legally.

 

[PaulR]

“In some cases because it’s Black Friday, they probably are going and purchasing a gift for a friend or a loved one who is a gun enthusiast. "

Yes, of course, 185,345 law abiding gun owners were probably going out and committing a felony that day.

 

[calsdad]

I'm confused.

So the country is "awash with guns" - and yet every time some psycho or terrorist goes and shoots a place up - none of the victims seem to have a gun......

Am I missing something here?

 

[mibro]

Called it the Whitehut because.....

Such disrespect.

It's two words, upper case H. White Hut.

You know that the text you referenced in bold does not qualify as a straw purchase, right?

 

[Rider]

Awesome article. I do wonder, thigh, how many members of 'Gun Owners for Gun Control' actually do own firearms of any sort? Did Bloomie round up a bunch of 80 year olds who own a shotgun or maybe a six shooter and offer them a ride to Denny's if they sign up? Were they back in time for meds and pudding?

In all fairness, I couldn't even tell you what constitutes a straw purchase any more.

No, education is actually a hindrance to the job. All you have to do is be able to lie expansively on a broad range of subjects. Come to think of it, sounds like a perfect job for me.
