Columbine survivor to Obama: You're wrong on gun control

Snippit:

In a letter to the president, Evan Todd asks: "Whose side are you on?"

A man who was wounded in the 1999 Columbine High School massacre has penned an open letter to President Barack Obama, saying the White House's proposed gun-control initiatives are woefully misguided and will do nothing to save lives.

In the frankly worded letter, published Wednesday by TheBlaze, Evan Todd offers a point-by-point rebuttal of Obama's proposals to curb gun violence following December's mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Twenty children and six adults were killed in the massacre in Newtown, Conn.

"Mr. President, in theory, your initiatives and proposals sound warm and fuzzy — but in reality they are far from what we need. Your initiatives seem to punish law-abiding American citizens and enable the murderers, thugs, and other lowlifes who wish to do harm to others," Todd wrote.

"Let me be clear: These ideas are the worst possible initiatives if you seriously care about saving lives and also upholding your oath of office. There is no dictate, law, or regulation that will stop bad things from happening — and you know that. Yet you continue to push the rhetoric. Why?"

Todd was a 15-year-old sophomore at Columbine in 1999. On April 20 of that year, two teens cloaked in black trench coats and armed with multiple guns and bombs opened fire at the high school in Littleton, Colo. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed 12 fellow students and a teacher and wounded 23 others before committing suicide in one of the deadliest school shootings in U.S. history.

Todd was hiding under a desk in the library when one of the shooters fired his shotgun twice at it. Todd was hit by wood splinters and suffered wounds to his face and back. He says he talked the teen gunmen out of killing him before he managed to escape.

His letter is true but will have no effect. Obama's agenda is not to save lives, it is to control lives. He is a tyrant. He will not listen to "reason". His goal is set. He is not a Christian. A Christian loves his neighbor as himself. He is a muslim. Lying is permitted. It is called Taqiyya.
