Already rushing to the microphones to try and use the murders in a South Carolina church to undermine the U.S. Constitution and push his loser gun control ideas, Barack Obama lied today saying that the US is the only country with mass murders.
During his press conference today Obama said, “This kind of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries.”
But this simply isn’t true. We have but to look to France only a few months ago when Islamists murdered 12 members of the staff of Charlie Hebdo magazine.
But there have been many, many other examples of mass killings abroad.
Here is just a partial list of other mass murders in foreign countries…
July 22, 2011: Confessed mass killer Anders Behring Breivik kills 77 in Norway in twin attacks: a bombing in downtown Oslo and a shooting massacre at a youth camp outside the capital. The self-styled anti-Muslim militant admitted both attacks.April 30, 2009: Farda Gadyrov, 29, enters the prestigious Azerbaijan State Oil Academy in the capital, Baku, armed with an automatic pistol and clips. He kills 12 people before killing himself as police close in.
Sept. 23, 2008: Matti Saari, 22, walks into a vocational college in Kauhajoki, Finland, and opens fire, killing 10 people and burning their bodies with firebombs before shooting himself fatally in the head.
Nov. 7, 2007: After revealing plans for his attack in YouTube postings, 18-year-old Pekka-Eric Auvinen fires kills eight people at his high school in Tuusula, Finland.
January 7, 2015: Islamists murdered 12 people in Paris during the Charlie Hebdo attacks.
April 26, 2002: Robert Steinhaeuser, 19, who had been expelled from school in Erfurt, Germany, kills 13 teachers, two former classmates and policeman, before committing suicide.
April 28, 1996: Martin Bryant, 29, bursts into cafeteria in seaside resort of Port Arthur in Tasmania, Australia, shooting 20 people to death. Driving away, he kills 15 others. He was captured and imprisoned.
March 13, 1996: Thomas Hamilton, 43, kills 16 kindergarten children and their teacher in elementary school in Dunblane, Scotland, and then kills himself.
Dec. 6, 1989: Marc Lepine, 25, bursts into Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique college, shooting at women he encounters, killing nine and then himself.
Aug. 19, 1987: Michael Ryan, 27, kills 16 people in small market town of Hungerford, England, and then shoots himself dead.
And that is only a partial list. It doesn’t include mass stabbings, some school murders, and even the Charlie Hebdo murders aren’t there.
So, once again, Obama lies to the American people.

Well, of course Young Toddy omitted Obama's qualifier in the same speech that "these kind of things don't happen in other places with the same kind of frequency" and his earlier statement that during his terms in office that "he has had to make too many of these statements" (re mass shootings).
Which is true. No other developed nation has anywhere near either the mass shootings frequency or the murder-by-gun rate of the good old USA.
The truth kind of wrecks your dumbass I-Hate-Obama post, doesn't it, Toddy?
Charlie Hebdo and the Boston Marathon hardest hit. And let's not bring up Muslims on student visas, #WTC 9 11
