The fact that his agenda is failing means nothing, except that he has to go to extreme measures to push it forward.
You claimed Obama's "scheme" has resulted in the death of Americans. But now it's failing?
Like setting up a false flag mass shooting to get Republicans to agree to a vote to further his gun control agenda.
Which is happening right now.
False flag? Are we treading in to nutter territory again?
You do know this is a conspiracy site, right?
Don't make excuses.

An egg-sized rock to the side of your head and your terrorist days are over, why dont you watch some of the millions of hours of free video of riots where people are killed and permanently injured by such stones....if someone drops the hammer on you your reacion time for pulling and aiming a Glock and an egg sized stone are pretty close, the Glock round gets there sooner and is followed up much much sooner.....however the first shot is still on the way from both sources and is potentially terminal in both cases.....soooooo....250 egg-sized rocks coming at your beanbag automatic weapon or not is bad karma for you every time.
www.youtube.com...
If you watch that video and imagine a throwdown where the man with the holstered weapon has an opponent with an egg-sized rock concealed in each hand ,then he drops the hammer on the officer....launching one in a sucker-punch move then sprinting in full speed behind it firing another as he closes distance reaching for his knife or "ceramic hair comb" with and "edge"....lol......now imagine 250 people doing this same thing..... I simply see this as a 100% lose scenario for a gunman if people have cerebral muscle memory confidence and ad-hoc wepons with crippeling and terminal potentials .
You are not drawing a weapon..aiming it effectively...nor re-loading it in any type of comfort zone with deadly egg-sized rocks kipping at your head.
I am not joking.....set up a 1/2 frozen watermelon....and a fresh one....then fire a few fastballs into them from 21ft....15ft....10ft....5ft....full force.....and consider the results.
Guns have limitations as do knives ect ect...fear is what makes weapons effective in the hands of a single attacker...if a crowd collectively knows what to do.....and acts together impactfully in a timely manner courageously then the crowd wins every single time.
Put a gunman with an automatic paintball gun in a bar full of 250 "educated" people with 2 egg-sized hard rubber rocks each...or give them an assortment of tasers and lets see what happens.

Having fired guns of different types from handguns to shotguns to rifles to black powder muskets.....I will flat out say I will take a firearm every time.....against a firearm......however gun laws prevent this...sooooo....next best is whats in the bullpen.
I repeat ...my hands on experience with both guns and rocks and having had both fired at me....lol...tells me that the guy in the bar with the paintball gun is toast in under 2 minutes because of reloads slowing him down......ever see the movie Roadhouse???...well imagine co-ordinated planned smooth egg-sized rock response under duress from trained staff and trained Customers.
You want to approach things as if an elite trained special forces level gunman is sytemiclly eliminating people with nerves of steel no equipment malfunctions or process errors and complete and utter confidence pace and pushing of his weapons firing parameters being the only thing slowing him down.....your starting point is unrealistic.....and accurately targetting moving people is not as easy as one thinks....I must stress the difficulty in hitting moving targets with any type of gun.Any hunter understands,which is why they dont take snap shots on running game unless they have to.
Of course if you simply give people 2 rocks each and then send them in untrained....they will be wiped out....however....if the noise of the weapon is conditioned out as a panic response and conditioned in as a triggerpoint ....and if there is some level of practice....as funny as it sounds.....the possibilities are boundless in terms of what kind of heat could be brought down on a single armed assailant in close quarters.
So a taser and a few egg-sized Pet Rocks are standard Clubbing gear nowadays....lol.
LOL...just take 50 people with rocks in the bar and see if the paintball guy can take them out if they are fearless and closing on him with intentions from everywhere enmasse at speed.....lol....remember he only takes maximum 2 headshots and hes shut down and if its a sweetspot like the temple or mouth or between the eyes he is out of the fight.....lol..broken fingers dont shoot very well either....lol.

I like the one where it plays out that we see a plane full of drunk passengers armed with egg-sized rocks and bad intentions drooling at a terrorist with a boxcutter and a single stewardess.....lol....because I for one am a big fan of Spocks and believe that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few so I shall be launching my rocks godspeed my aim but those suckers are already in the air or I am hammering them into your skullbone in close Stewardess be darned after all I am trying to save her soul.All terrorism does is make people MORE RESOULTE IMHO.

Depends on the state law.
You're not allowed to concealed carry and consume alcohol. Carrying into some sort of public accommodation that serves it, but not consuming it, is laid out in the state's permit laws.

If the shooting hadn't been prevented by a ccw holder and lots of people had died, this thread would already be swarmed by SJWs and left wing gun control nuts.
Funny how that works.
After getting into a fight with another person, the 32-year-old suspect pulled out a gun and began to fire at a crowd of people gathered outside of the club, hitting and injuring four, WISTV reports.
If you truly believe having guns back you up and prevent crime and it reduces the number of homicides, state the stats. Present the stories as they are. If its accurate you are the good guys.
Even anti-gun Clinton researchers concede that guns are used 1.5 million times annually for self-defense. According to the Clinton Justice Department, there are as many as 1.5 million cases of self-defense every year. The National Institute of Justice published this figure in 1997 as part of "Guns in America" -- a study which was authored by noted anti-gun criminologists Philip Cook and Jens Ludwig.[5]
* Armed citizens kill more crooks than do the police. Citizens shoot and kill at least twice as many criminals as police do every year (1,527 to 606).[6] And readers of Newsweek learned that "only 2 percent of civilian shootings involved an innocent person mistakenly identified as a criminal. The 'error rate' for the police, however, was 11 percent, more than five times as high."[7]

Whoop-de-do! Still sitting at 182 mass shootings in 2016... That's a disgrace for a civilized nation.
Anytime more than 3 people are killed it's a mass shooting, Obama said so.
Also, according to Obama I could shoot 100 people, as long as 2 or less people die, it's not a mass shooting.

Concealed Carrier Prevents Mass Shooting At SC Nightclub
Well the nerve of that person!
Obviously he shouldn't haven't have a gun.
He was suppose to shelter in place( about as asinine as duck and cover was), and just dialed 911 for police to come save them, of course after a three hour wait.

And how many of those were gang involved? Or drug related? Would you really equate a gang shootout over drugs to Orlando? Or is it just easier to lump them all together and scream "GUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
