Just hours after the deadly mass shooting on the campus of Umpqua Community College Thursday, President Obama emerged to deliver a speech shaming America for becoming numb to such preventable atrocities.
Many pointed out the shootings that occur routinely in cities like Chicago, which saw around 50 people shot last weekend and the weekend before that, none of which received a mention from the administration.
Hale Razor notes that Nobel Peace Prize recipient President Obama, who seemed personally offended by the #UCCShooting, has been relatively quiet about another senseless mass killing — this one taking the lives of at least nine Doctors Without Borders staff members.
Thursday: gives angry statement about 9 lives taken by bad guns
Saturday: military he leads blows up hospital, killing 19 innocent people— Razor (@hale_razor) October 3, 2015
Same guy who took full credit for killing Bin Laden has nothing to do with airstrikes that badly damaged Doctors Without Borders hospital.

Weird how the leftists that criticized collateral damage by Bush in Iraq are quiet when it's the result of Obama's orders in Afghanistan.

Bush personally let Abu Ghraib happen, but Obama has NOTHING to do with the hospital his airstrikes hit. #DoctorsWithoutBordersLivesMatter

It'll be interesting in 2017 when the president is once again held accountable for everything that goes wrong in federal government.

@hale_razor to be fair, Obama may have thought it was an aspirin factory

Update: It took quite a while longer than the campus shooting response and wasn’t delivered by press conference, but President Obama did offer his condolences to those killed in a U.S. strike on a Doctors Without Borders hospital.

Pres Obama says he awaits results of a Pentagon investigation of the airstrike before "making a definitive judgment" about it.

What’s this about waiting for the facts to be uncovered?
*Now* he wants to wait until an investigation before making conclusions https://t.co/MxIc1F1Dhu

Obama Admin vaporizing a hospital is something we should politicize.
— Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) October 4, 2015
Hi @POTUS Why are you releasing a statement about conducting airstrikes? You told us you ended that war.
