President Obama has had trouble figuring out motives in the past, and Thursday night’s attack on Dallas police is another one of those times:
"I think it's very hard to untangle the motives of this shooter," says Pres Obama of gunman in Dallas. Will leave it to psychologists.

Obama "very hard to untangle the motives of this shooter" … HIS MOTIVE WAS TO KILL COPS. WHAT DO YOU NOT GET ABOUT THAT!?

Kill white cops. It was as simple as that for a motive…

Just in case, Obama’s going to keep pushing gun control measures when he returns to the U.S. to “bring people together.”
