Right on cue President Obama used the tragic Planned Parenthood shooting in Colorado to push his gun control agenda.

Robert Lewis Dear was arrested Friday after killing three, including a police officer, at a Colorado Springs clinic.

Obama seized the opportunity and released a statement Saturday that was more about gun control than the victims of the tragedy.

The last thing Americans should have to do, over the holidays or any day, is comfort the families of people killed by gun violence – people who woke up in the morning and bid their loved ones goodbye with no idea it would be for the last time.

And yet, two days after Thanksgiving, that’s what we are forced to do again.

We don’t yet know what this particular gunman’s so-called motive was for shooting 12 people, or for terrorizing an entire community, when he opened fire with an assault weapon and took hostages at a Planned Parenthood center in Colorado. What we do know is that he killed a cop in the line of duty, along with two of the citizens that police officer was trying to protect. We know that law enforcement saved lives, as so many of them do every day, all across America. And we know that more Americans and their families had fear forced upon them.

This is not normal. We can’t let it become normal. If we truly care about this – if we’re going to offer up our thoughts and prayers again, for God knows how many times, with a truly clean conscience — then we have to do something about the easy accessibility of weapons of war on our streets to people who have no business wielding them. Period. Enough is enough.

May God bless officer Garrett Swasey and the Americans he tried to save – and may He grant the rest of us the courage to do the same thing.
