“President Obama on Thursday linked gun control to the Charleston church shooting in his first statement on Thursday, saying the nation needed to “come to grips” with the issue in the wake of the massacre that killed nine people. “At some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries. It doesn’t happen in other places with this kind of frequency,” Obama said. “And it is in our power to do something about it.”
“Obama’s Justice Department is investigating the mass shooting as a hate crime. But as the president addressed the tragedy in the White House briefing room, he also turned to politics – trying to focus the national conversation not just on race and violence, but gun laws. However, despite his raising the issue, Obama seemed aware of the challenge of passing any new gun control measures in the current environment, saying “politics” in Washington “foreclose a lot of those avenues right now.”
On the other hand, it is no secret that political activist, hunter and (occasionally) musician Ted Nugent has a bone to pick with the Democrats about existing gun control laws, let alone any upcoming ones. Commenting on the recent unfortunate events in Charleston, Nugent stated that “none of that would have happened had the good people of Charleston been allowed to protect themselves with some good, old American-made firepower.”
Speaking to Newslo, Nugent said: “As a hunting enthusiast, I’m not often asked the question which wild animals are most endangered nowadays. But, if I were asked that question, I would say that the average American homeowner is on the brink of extinction! Take a guess as to why that is? Go ahead? I’ll tell you why – Democrats and their damn gun control laws.”
The Motor City Madman also added: “What’s more, Americans in general are an endangered nation and will continue to be one until Democrats are overthrown, complete with that Iran-loving moron. And, to make one thing clear – I’m not saying this because I’m a Republican. .

Exposing the Big Game 
There are many words to describe Ted Nugent, and none are good. Unfortunately, he spawned 9 kids.
Thanks for that disturbing fact–NOT! The last thing the world needs is nine more Nugents running around with compound bows…
H’okay so you give someone a gun because they are afraid of other people who have guns, those people have guns because they are afraid of other people with guns. And those people have guns because… ad infinitum. What you create is a culture comprising of persons scared of each other and fearful of being backstabbed at the drop of a hat. This makes an itchy trigger finger for those without dicipline – which is to say… the types that would shoot a nine year old child near point blank with a shotgun mistaking her for a skunk (due to her costume) on Halloween just after she innocently asks for candy.

Disclaimer: I am in no way whatsoever a Ted Nugent apologist.
You’re not? No, I didn’t think you were;) Nothing coming from Nugent would surprise me these days…Thanks Maureen for clearing that up. Another “Onion News”, but at least the Onion’s funny sometimes.
Although this is satire, this is the kind of thing he would say, and I’m surprised he hasn’t actually said it.
Nope, it fits him
While most coverage on Obama’s recent interview focused on his brief use of the notorious “n-word” there was little coverage of what he actually said about guns.
On the podcast “WTF With Marc Maron,” President Barack Obama said we need “some common sense stuff that prevents a 21-year-old who is angry about something, or confused about something, or is racist, or is deranged from going into a gun store and suddenly is packing.”
In discussing the fatal shooting of nine parishioners inside Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, SC, he said, “It’s important for folks to understand how hunting and sportsmanship around firearms is really important to a lot of people. Its part of how they grew up. Its part of the bonding they had with tier dad It evokes all kind of memories and traditions and I think you have to be respectful of that.”

Do you think President Obama feels the same way about the Confederate (or swastika, for that matter) flag?
