The Most Equal Comrade was actually doing okay until he started to get vulgar and divisive about race and guns

Brandon Morse at RedState focuses on the gun angle:

When you go to a memorial service honoring five police officers that were slain in the line of duty, the thing you don't do is push your agenda to everyone in attendance, be it in the room or online.

But then again, this is Obama, who has never seen a stage he couldn't preach on.

I hate the fact that I knew he was going to say something inappropriate upon getting up on that stage, long before he got on it, and I knew that thing was going to revolve around gun control somehow.

Sure enough, Obama delivered a line, but it wasn't just any line. It was an incredibly out of this world, mind numbingly stupid line.
Right in the middle of talking about what's wrong with America, Obama hands this gem to us:
"It's easier for a teenager to buy a Glock than get his hands on a computer or even a book."

Yup. He said that. You can watch him say it here. 

Charles C.W. Cooke at NRO points out that the harmony and good will that had been the characteristic vibe at the funeral service was obliterated by the MEC's veering into this stuff:

Twenty minutes ago, almost everyone I know thought that the president was doing a good job with his address. Now, at least half of them are irritated and upset. On Twitter, a debate over books and Glocks has broken out. People are shouting at one another. Where there was harmony, now there is discord.

This, remember, was a funeral — a funeral for one of the police officers who was murdered last Thursday. It wasn’t a rally. It wasn’t a White House press conference. It wasn’t a public statement, hastily arranged on the airport tarmac. It was a funeral. Presumably, those attending had all sorts of political opinions. Presumably, some of the cops were Republicans. Presumably, there was some serious disagreement in that room as to how the country should move forward. Wouldn’t it have been better to wait until the proceedings were over to call for change? Wouldn’t it have been more politically effective for the president to have made his push somewhere else? 

Scott Johnson at Power Line treats us to an examination of the race angle:

Before the blood was dry in the most recent police shootings this past week, for example, Obama pretended to have a handle on the facts. “What’s clear,” he declared, “is that these fatal shootings are not isolated incidents. They are symptomatic of the broader challenges within our criminal justice system, the racial disparities that appear across the system year after year, and the resulting lack of trust that exists between law enforcement and too many of the communities they serve.”

The New York Times notes Obama’s balance of praise for the heroism of police officers with a blunt acknowledgment of racial bias in the criminal justice system in Obama’s remarks today. “We can’t simply dismiss it as a symptom of political correctness or reverse racism,” he said. The lie remains the same.

He clearly has no interest in ratcheting down the societal tensions of 2016. He has learned well from Alinsky and Cloward and Piven.
