Uh, oh. National Review’s Charles C.W. Cooke noticed President Obama doing something that overprotecting and politically correct school officials have been hammering kids about for years — pointing a make-believe “finger-gun” at another person.

The short clip was taken when the president was mugging in various poses for BuzzFeed. Cooke noticed this one and tweeted:

Why is the president glorifying gun violence? Extremely disappointing. pic.twitter.com/GJgy5JSK7y

This set off an avalanche of replies, including this one, where a follower first accused Cooke of overreacting, then added this observation. It may not be too far from the truth:

@charlescwcooke Besides, he’s just showing which guns the Marines have in Yemen.

Then there were these:

@charlescwcooke @GOPBlackChick This jerk thinks he’s 007…excuse me while I PUKE!!

Inevitably, the issue of school suspensions was raised:

@charlescwcooke that pistol pose would get him suspended in many elementary schools

@baldingschemer @charlescwcooke Didn’t a kid get suspended from school once for making a gun with his hand?

This isn’t a first for the president. A while back he was photographed not only with a water pistol in his hand, but also running around what could be a slippery surface surrounding a pool. That one deserves a double whammy.

President “do as I say, not as I do” strikes again.
