A Further Perspective

He Says He Wants Us to Change

How might that be?

I have no doubt that the people who assembled at Newtown High School found comfort in President Obama’s words on Sunday night.

But make no mistake (as Obama is so fond of saying). The President didn’t only come to Newtown to pay his respects to those who were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary last Friday morning. He also came to lecture the nation and to save us from ourselves:

This is our first task — caring for our children. It’s our first job. If we don’t get that right, we don’t get anything right. That’s how, as a society, we will be judged.

And by that measure, can we truly say, as a nation, that we are meeting our obligations? Can we honestly say that we’re doing enough to keep our children — all of them — safe from harm? Can we claim, as a nation, that we’re all together there, letting them know that they are loved, and teaching them to love in return? Can we say that we’re truly doing enough to give all the children of this country the chance they deserve to live out their lives in happiness and with purpose?

I’ve been reflecting on this the last few days, and if we’re honest with ourselves, the answer is no. We’re not doing enough. And we will have to change.

Since I’ve been President, this is the fourth time we have come together to comfort a grieving community torn apart by a mass shooting. The fourth time we’ve hugged survivors. The fourth time we’ve consoled the families of victims. And in between, there have been an endless series of deadly shootings across the country, almost daily reports of victims, many of them children, in small towns and big cities all across America — victims whose — much of the time, their only fault was being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

We can’t tolerate this anymore. These tragedies must end. And to end them, we must change. We will be told that the causes of such violence are complex, and that is true. No single law — no set of laws can eliminate evil from the world, or prevent every senseless act of violence in our society.

But that can’t be an excuse for inaction. Surely, we can do better than this. If there is even one step we can take to save another child, or another parent, or another town, from the grief that has visited Tucson, and Aurora, and Oak Creek, and Newtown, and communities from Columbine to Blacksburg before that — then surely we have an obligation to try. 

In the coming weeks, I will use whatever power this office holds to engage my fellow citizens — from law enforcement to mental health professionals to parents and educators — in an effort aimed at preventing more tragedies like this. Because what choice do we have? We can’t accept events like this as routine. Are we really prepared to say that we’re powerless in the face of such carnage, that the politics are too hard? Are we prepared to say that such violence visited on our children year after year after year is somehow the price of our freedom?

So President Obama says we aren’t doing enough and said not once, but twice that we must change. But we must ask how Obama want us to change. Sure he says that he will use his office to engage stakeholders. He also pays lip service to the argument that new laws won’t eliminate evil or senseless acts of violence. But whenever Obama says that inaction isn’t an option you can be sure he wants to do something regardless of whether it actually works or not. Given that he has asked his cabinet to come up with proposals to reduce gun violence (including the possible reinstatement of the ban on assault rifles), can there be any doubt how Obama wants this country to change?

This isn’t to say change shouldn’t come. But it has to be the right kind of change. President Obama can ban guns and assault weapons all he wants. Obama can no more stop gun violence than he can calm the oceans. As I have argued previously, if strict gun control was all it took to stop gun violence, then Chicago should be the safest city in the entire country.

Although the massacres in Tucson, Aurora, Oak Creek and now Newtown were horrifying spectacles, many of the homicides we see usually involve only one victim and are often over the most trivial of matters. How often over the past quarter century have we heard about children murdered over their shoes? Just last October, a 12-year-old girl in New Jersey was murdered by two teenaged boys for her BMX bike. If President Obama wants to engage the nation on gun violence then we must come to terms with why so many young people (especially in the inner cities) believe that life is so cheap that they are prepared to take another life over material possessions.

Unless a concerted, day-to-day effort is made to change the attitudes of young people concerning material possessions while instilling the proper values in its place, then President Obama’s efforts will amount to nothing more than a shot in the dark.

Why is it that when some Marching Mommie sees one person behaving badly, her instant response is to start slapping legal products out of the hands of EVERYBODY and screaming "NO NO! NO NO!" in their faces? She sees one fat kid and immediately takes steps to ban "sugary drinks" for 300,000,000 people who are not fat; she sees a woman with lung cancer and the whole country is directed to stop smoking upwind in a hurricane; some child somewhere has a peanut allergy and the whole country must stop eating peanuts TODAY; and now a lunatic shoots up a school and 300,000,000 people must turn in their guns TODAY. Whatever happened to self-control and self-discipline? Whatever happened to Free Will? In my opinion it isn't WE who have to "change". It's the parents who believe that they have no responsibility for teaching their children anything; it's the responsibility of the universe to stop doing anything naughty that their children might find out about and try to do. Oh, and by the way, is that your eight year old daughter wearing a padded bra and thong panties you can see through her skimpy tank top and that ruffle you call a skirt? And is that your toddler boy in the "Bush is a Poo Poo Head" t-shirt? Whom do I slap and scream at: you, the Mommy, or Society?

drudge ette obama| 12.19.12 @ 7:00AM

Slap all the mommies and you'll get most of the offending societa members. There are no little girls today. My 13 year old nephew has facebook pictures where he is surrounded by "little girls" who look more worldly than I ever will.

I went on a AIDS presentation to a middle school in Georgia. Dear god, these are children and they are being taught about the dangers of premature ejectile fluids. When I was 12 years old, I had no idea.....

For those who don't understand how society has destroyed itself willingly, just spend a day in your local public middle school and watch the girls and boys interact. I am deeply saddened.

Nancy in NC| 12.19.12 @ 7:47AM

Eight year olds today are aware of things that I didn't know when I married. And that's someone's idea of progress?

TLP| 12.19.12 @ 1:15PM

Does anyone remember when there was a push for a Mandatory 10 Year Prison Sentence for anyone Convicted of a Crime, where a Gun was used? It didn't need to be Fired. It just had to be Present during the Commission of the Crime.

The LIBERALS killed that bill.

Chuck Schumer, Pat Leahy, Ted Kennedy, take your pick. It was too arbitrary, they said. And, no doubt - I don't remember - it would affect Minorities disproportionately.

We have lots of Gun Laws. Yet, the bad guys still get guns.

We now have a Guy in the White House, and his Attorney General at his Blacks Only Justice Department, who, ADMITTEDLY, purchased Thousands of High Powered AUTOMATIC Guns, and then walked them across the Mexican Border, unbeknownst to the Mexican Government, and placed them in the hands of the Most Prolific Killers in the Western Hemisphere, where, to nobody's surprise, they were promptly used to MURDER more than 1,000 Mexican Men, Women, and CHILDREN.

There wasn't one single Tracer Transponder on any of those guns. That's because they were never meant to be Traced. They were meant to be USED, and USED they were.

CBS ran the story about the Interdepartmental Emails from people in the Administration, and these people were ESTATIC. The Plan to use the Deaths from these guns, would allow them to institute New Gun Control Laws visavi Long Guns.

The Killings in Newtown were like Christmas, New Years, and the 4th of July, all rolled into one, for this President.

Occam's Tool| 12.19.12 @ 8:44PM

Chicago, his hometown, has strict gun laws and the most murder per capita of any US city I know of. Possible exception: Detroit.

Run by Democrats. NYC under Guiliani became much safer.

drudge ette obama| 12.19.12 @ 6:55AM

Which percentage does he want to change?

The 47%? I am all for that.

Jack in Wi| 12.19.12 @ 6:55AM

People with skin color like Obama commit over 50% of the murders in this country. The solution to stopping all these crimes is to not let these people have any guns or knives. Of course I am joking. People in these neighborhoods need protection for self defense more then most of us. The police in these neighborhoods are not very fast in responding to calls in shooting incidents. They would prefer to arrrive after it is all over. Obama proposes to disarm the vast majority because a few nuts have killed some people. Well Obama uses drones to kill people from a computer and many innocents are killed. Why isn't he on trial? I not would trust Obama who has no respect for human life and defends even the murder of late term babies with partial birth abortion. He even defends the murder of babies born alive after an abortion. With people like Obama and other cold blooded killers in charge free people need their guns for self defense from the criminals and government more then ever. Of course the words criminal and government go together like the words bread and butter.

Occam's Tool| 12.19.12 @ 8:45PM

Jack in Wi, I, um, gulp, hate this....

I agree with you.

Suzyqpie| 12.21.12 @ 9:06AM

Der spiegle had an article that stated 0bama's drones have killed 6000 people. I couldn't substantiate that anywhere else, but that's an incredible number.

Joellen| 12.19.12 @ 7:06AM

OBAMA LIED - ITS THE FIFTH TIME WE HAD A TERRORIST ATTACK ON OUR SOIL - HE LEFT OUT FORT HOOD! How many reading this think he oops, forgot all about Fort Hood, where the Muslim Terrorist yelled Allah is God and then EXECUTED ELEVEN PEOPLE, INCLUDING AN INNOCENT CHILD IN THE WOMB.

Why isnt the media "reminding" all of Obama's newest lie.

If everyone by now hasnt realized that Obama is not the "binding" force for this country, that indeed he is part of the rift in this country, well then, it really is too late.

Everything else has been said - just please remind people - its FIVE MASS SHOOTINGS - FORT HOOD DOES COUNT!

Al Adab| 12.19.12 @ 10:42AM

Joellen,
You know the reason. Every word he speaks proceeds from Mount Olympus. If he says it, it becomes truth.

I wish they would remember that he said, "fundamentally transform Amerca" and they might ask what that meant.

Occam's Tool| 12.19.12 @ 8:46PM

And I had a job there working in the Department of Psychiatry that I was saved from. I never forget Fort Hood, or the ignorance of Islam that, but for an Act of G-d, would have killed me.

Suzyqpie| 12.21.12 @ 9:11AM

Actually, 13 were killed, 29 injured in Ft Hood massacre. Agree, political agenda was addressed in not mentioning it.

Nancy in NC| 12.19.12 @ 7:45AM

Perhaps ozero should heed his own advice. He often displays actions I find offensive, particularly when he talks about fair. (Personally, I hate the word fair except when it's proceeded by County.)

He's had people in the White House (the people's house?) that I wouldn't allow in my home. Unlike Bill Cosby ozero embraces the culture of violence and vulgarity. After all, the Samuel Jacksons of the world support him big time. The merchants of filth are his biggest fans.

Where is the media on these facts that all of us are aware?

gene| 12.19.12 @ 8:55AM

Where was this President when hundreds of Mexican citizens were shot to death with Assault Rifles that his administration sold to Mexican Drug Cartels?
And WHY, oh why does not the Main Stream Media NOT question him on this topic?

TLP| 12.19.12 @ 1:22PM

He was buying them more Bullets.

Von Mises Jr| 12.19.12 @ 9:57AM

If we examine the facts, the kid and his mother were scared to death about a financial collapse. They were survivalist.
And whose responsibility is it for the fact that our country is teetering on collapse? Could it be 535 Morons in Congress and a radical Marxist and his Czars in the White House?
We have a leader that tells minorities and radicals to "vote for revenge." He told Hispanics to "punish their enemies." He calls corporate executives and small business owners "fat cats." He and his regime call conservatives "terrorist" while Joellen rightfully points out he cannot call Islamic terrorist "terrorist."
This is not about gun control. It is about low-life people in Ruling Class positions installed by low-lives that would vote for someone who would target groups and destroy their lives to "fundamentally transform" them into atomized masses isolated and living each day for "Two Minutes Hate."

Al Adab| 12.19.12 @ 10:45AM

Oh now Jr:
Ther ehave to be five or six in Congress with brains and common sense. I would certainly prefer the latter to the first. Too many "smart" people have none of the other. Maybe your number is about 530 so don't exagerate.

And yes, its not about gun control. Its already against the law to shoot people. Maybe we need a law making it illegal to violate laws. As always the issue is about control by our self-annointed betters who know so much more than we plebs.

R Martin| 12.19.12 @ 7:45AM

As much as I loathe Barack Obama and EVERYTHING he stands for, I marvel at his ability to promote himself to mass audiences with hazy concepts of leadership. “Change” was his watchword in 2008. It worked so successfully that he’s dusted off the old playbook and is trying it again. It does not speak well of our society that we are likely to fall for it once more. When this man says “change” hold on to your wallets, safeguard your freedoms and protect the Constitution.

Jacob McCandles| 12.19.12 @ 10:45AM

Good point. It is much easier if one does not have a value to shed.

MelvinNC| 12.19.12 @ 7:50AM

"We have to change." The President wants us to be docile and submissive. When Liberals who control government run education encountered kids in school that what we used to call, "Full of Life and Energy," are now called, "Hyperactive, afflicted with Attention Deficit Disorder, or some other form of Psyco babble. The school demands that the child me heavily medicated with the myriad of mood and mind altering drugs that basically turns a kid in a mind numb zombie that just sits in the classroom expressionless.
When a kids body changes from grade school to high school their bodies are going ape shit with hormones and chemical changes as their bodies go through each of these phases into adulthood.
Then the humans throw man made brain altering chemicals into this cauldron of chemical changes and society is supposed to get a well adjusted kid once he exits this chemical and hormonal fog.
I don't know about the rest of you, but it sure doesn't look like that is happening does it?
Marines are killing themselves right and left people. Something is causing these poor young men mental switches to go haywire, and it isn't the guns either.

TLP| 12.19.12 @ 1:30PM

I love the old Tee Shirt design that shows the flags of Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, and Mao's China, with the words underneath: Gun Control. It Works Every Time It's Tried.

Indeed.

Peppermint Tea | 12.19.12 @ 8:48AM

Obama: "Just change. You need to be better. Drop your gun. Give more money in taxes. Let Kathleen manage your health care. Stop with the sugar (never mind my tobacco and choom). If you want guns, then you need to be a Mexican drug cartel and can buy them from the Justice Dept.
"After all, I didn't send in the guns in Benghazi, which should be the model for your actions.
"Submit to my authority and things will be better because I will ruin your life for the greater good.

Louis Jenkins| 12.19.12 @ 9:03AM

This was CBS? Give me a break. Posted on another tread:

A gun found at the scene of a shootout between a Mexican drug cartel and soldiers where a beauty queen died was part of the botched “Fast and Furious” operation, CBS News reports.

Authorities had said that Maria Susana Flores Gamez was likely used as a human shield and that an automatic rifle had been found near her body after the Nov. 23 shootout.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, tells CBS News that the Justice Department did not notify Congress that a Fast and Furious firearm was found at the scene in Sinaloa.

CBS News learned the Romanian AK-47-type WASR-10 rifle found near her body was purchased by Uriel Patino at an Arizona gun shop in 2010. Patino is a suspect who allegedly purchased 700 guns while under the ATF’s watch.

It figures he'd have his fingerprints all over the massacre in Connecticut -- just what they needed at the time: for all their police and fire fighters to be tied up babysitting him instead of mopping up a crime scene and caring for the people who live there so they can get on with what has to be done.

What hutspa the Kenyan Muslim Marxist has!!
This coming from a president, who, along with his criminal co- conspirator, Eric Holder, is guilty of being an accessory to murder of two American agents, Terry and Zapata, due to Fast & Furious.
Yes, Obozo and Holder allowed assault weapons to be placed in the hands of Mexican drug cartels, knowing full well the consequences of these actions.
At one time, the left and the whores in the MSM would have called this, CONNECTING THE DOTS.
Obozo and Holder should be tried as accessories to murder, as the law requires, fat chance, Obozo won't even discuss Fast & Furious, and the whores in the MSM think it's all a big nothing.
Feinstein said in a Senate hearing in 1995 she carried a firearm at all times and was ready to use it to take people out!!
The whole damn lot are dispicable hypocrites.

Derek Leaberry| 12.19.12 @ 11:13AM

"Can we honestly say that we’re doing enough to keep our children — all of them — safe from harm?"

Ironic words coming from the leader of a party whose most sacred sacrament is the killing of unborn children.

markenoff| 12.19.12 @ 11:41AM

"This is our first task — caring for our children."

No Mr. President it is MY and MY WIFE'S first task to care for our children. That is why we need firearms in our home and on our person to protect our children from the violent criminals that have been created by 60 years of liberal policies. You have your Secret Service protection; my wife and children have my Beretta/Glock/S&W/Mossberg protection.

Al Adab| 12.19.12 @ 3:09PM

As you note, the man thinks in terms of the collective. Everything must be the responsibility of government and central control. Nothing is left to the individual or their personal choice.

Who Knows?| 12.19.12 @ 11:54AM

Obama is setting myriad precedents, just as Clinton did.

As for what he SAYS, in the current moment, it SEEMS to matter---after all, the hoary fireside chats by FDR are always THERE to remind us of how soothing a president can be in times of trouble.

However, when it comes to mass murders, maybe time will continue to work its “magic”. For example, until the Newtown rampage was done, how many people had buried the West Virginia University one in their memory?

Personally, I choose good company, always.

Therefore, this old dog, moi, refuses to pay any attention, or at least as little as possible, on such incidents as mass murders. Or, Obama, for that matter.

Shit happens translates into many forms, the worst of them being when some human kills others. Me, I love people, and ONLY wish them all a long and enlightening life.

Self-identification also applies, in Narcissistic spades.

For years, now, the Syrian dictator has had his supporters KILLING people---what, 36,000 so far? How many is that per day? And, yet, they aren’t Americans, eh, so it doesn’t matter to us, like it does when some American’s, especially children, get wasted.

What is, is what is. Choices exist.

Even, but maybe especially, unconscious actions are choices, because there is only one rule that can’t be broken: there are many mansions in the Lord’s House, and what can happen, will happen.

Tony G.| 12.19.12 @ 12:02PM

vigilant| 12.19.12 @ 1:59PM

When you have a "normal" mind that, for the most part, functions in a logical, rational way, you are at first dumbfounded when you encounter a mind that doesn't. You want that mind to follow the rules as you've always understood them, but it refuses, and the more you try to explain and accommodate, the more that mind throws you new curve balls. Whatever "logic" Obama possesses is inconsistent and based on whatever is convenient at the time for achieving his objectives. America is being masterfully played by a team fronted by Obama, whose pathology is serendipitously useful to their agenda.

So don't try to make sense of it--that would be an exercise in futility. Instead, realize that you have been enrolled in a nationwide class in Abnormal Psych 101. Take good notes. There will be a quiz at the next election.

Petronius| 12.19.12 @ 3:30PM

Election? Why bother when all of the Real Power is outside of the government and in the beltway salons of the Plutocrats who are the only ones getting Their way? Institutional politics is now totally despotic to the extent that the average person has no more control of his life and destiny beyond the flat screen remote and choosing lottery numbers. I harken back to that quote from Shakespeare. "First thing. Let's kill all the lawyers." We should substitute Intellectuals in the place of lawyers. The dictatorship we now live under began with Wilson and the Ivy League social engineers who picked up the ball from Teddy Roosevelt. The few of us left who want to be Free are facing a team defeated only once during my life by President Reagan. For our enemies it's 1st and goal on the 1 inch line with the officials all lining up on their side.

Great article. . . . I think you have hit the nail on the head. We must engage with our young as parents and peers. To many children are left to fend for themselves in this confusing world. Money would be well spend on family/mental health instead of action to strip the responsible citizen of his 2nd Amendment rights. This President needs to get in the REAL world.
