White House Uses Children Again to Make Anti-Gun Argument: ‘The Only Thing They Do Is Harm or Kill’

Jan. 17, 2013 7:45pm Jason Howerton

One day after President Barack Obama called for sweeping gun legislation and signed 23 executive orders on gun policy, the White House published videos of four children asking the president to address gun violence on its YouTube channel.

Many critics will see the videos as an attempt to emotionalize the debate surrounding gun control. Each video shows a single child sitting in a chair in front of a blue velvet curtain as they read their letters to Obama.

Obama was also flanked by young children as he announced his new gun proposals and signed the previously mentioned executive orders on Wednesday.

The White House expressed outrage at a new NRA video that called Obama a “hypocrite” because he has armed guards for his daughters but doesn’t want armed guards in schools. The administration called the video “repugnant and cowardly,” arguing that it dragged children into a political issue.

In a video titled “A letter from Grant,” Grant says “please don’t let people own machine guns or other powerful guns like that.”

“We should learn from what happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School. I feel really bad about what happened.”

In “A letter from Hinna,” Hinna, 8, asks President Obama to so something to “stop all of these terrible problems.

“Can we stop using guns? I think if they are no guns on the street, no one could get hurt. Bullets don’t have eyes. It can hurt anyone.”

Finally, in another video, “A letter from Julia,” Julia, 11, asks Obama to make it “very hard for people to buy” guns.

“The only thing they do is harm or kill,” Julia says in the video. “I know that laws have to be passed by Congress, but I beg you to try very hard to make guns not allowed.”

(H/T: New York Times)

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

Taejah, Grant, Hinna & Julia,

My family has has only been in America for 3 generations. You see, my great grandfather John escaped from a southern Russian border when he was in his 30′s just as a very bloody revolution was unfolding. Good thing he did because after he left about 8,000,000 (that’s 8 million) people died in that revolution.

It’s OK if you don’t like guns and don’t see how they are a force for good. But just because you don’t like guns doesn’t mean that guns aren’t good. Have you ever had someone sneak into your house and pull out a knife and start stabbing someone you love? Or have you stood and just watched someone get their head split wide open till their brains splash everywhere? Maybe you’ve seen these things on tv, but I mean for real. In real life.

Well if you do ever see this kind of evil I hope you have a gun so you can kill them to stop them from killing someone who doesn’t deserve to be murdered or beaten.

Also, did you know that if you added up all the gang members in the United States today that they would be the 7th largest army in the world? It’s true. So if a gang breaks into your house and wants to murder your entire family, well 30 bullets in your gun just might not be enough to stop that from happening.

In closing, I hope you study really hard because you owe the federal government something like $120,000.00 and $60,000 of that is what Obama said you’ll have to pay if your middle class. But if your wealthy i

  Is there any question that your children are being indoctrinated?
  
  Pull your children out of the public school system NOW !
  
  They left the part out about how guns SAVE lives !!!!!
  
  To say guns only harm and kill, is an outright LIE !
  
  A lot of lives have been saved because the gun deterred the would be murderer.

  DID THEY TEACH THE POOR CHILDREN THIS ?????
  
  The Congress finds the following:
  
  (1) Police cannot protect, and are not legally liable for failing to protect, individual citizens, as evidenced by the following:
  
  (A) The courts have consistently ruled that the police do not have an obligation to protect individuals, only the public in general. For example, in Warren v. District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department, 444 A.2d 1 (D.C. App. 1981), the court stated: `[C]ourts have without exception concluded that when a municipality or other governmental entity undertakes to furnish police services, it assumes a duty only to the public at large and not to individual members of the community.’.
  
  (2) Citizens frequently must use firearms to defend themselves, as evidenced by the following:
  
  (A) Every year, more than 2,400,000 people in the United States use a gun to defend themselves against criminals–or more than 6,500 people a day. This means that, each year, firearms are used 60 times more often to protect the lives of honest citizens than to take lives.
  
  (B) Of the 2,400,000 self-defense cases, more than 192,000 are by women defending themselves against sexual abuse.
  
  (C) Of the 2,400,000 times citizens use their guns to defend themselves every year, 92 percent merely brandish their gun or fire a warning shot to scare off their attackers. Less than 8 percent of the time, does a citizen kill or wound his or her attacker

  If all this mess is TRULY about “the children” they’d do something about the National Debt that will keep our children poor paying off this debt during their lifetime. Our children have nothing to look forward to except work to pay obama’s debt and put their own lives on hold for lack of money for themselves.

  If they cared about the children, they would be outraged over drunk driving, gang violence, illegal drug trafficking, high fructose corn syrup, flouride in our water, chemtrails, Monsanto, hormones and additives pumped into factory-farmed animals, and so very much more.

  The leftists and their double standard…. What a bunch of baloney…. In the words of Kristie Cremes, this is “reprehensible”. Apparently it’s alright with the leftist media for Obama to use the innocent children of other parents for political gain and advantage, but, oh no, we can’t even point out that children of Obama and elitist media pundits get armed guards in their schools while these same pathetic cowards demand our public schools remain absolutely “gun-free”, because in their utopian world, maniacs will obey ink and paper, and guns are just inherently evil unless in the hands of the “Government”. Such idiocy is what leads to tyranny and despotic governments.

I’m buying the BS hook line and sinker. Oh yea, I thought Global Warming was a crock, but King Big Ears, if you Al Zazera Gore can stop “Climate Change” I’m in. Where do I go to turn in my SUV.

  THE ONLY THING ABORTIONISTS DO IS HARM OR KILL !!
  
  On that day in Connecticut, a poultry xx children were murdered by a psycho-teen with a gun. On that same day, 3,288 babies were murdered (national average statistics) by State licensed “abortionists” with scalpels and dilators and suction probes.

  Kids live in an emotional world instead of a rational one. If led to they will believe government is a god that can do anything. Sad that people allow their children to be indoctrinated just so they can get their hand outs from the government. Sorry state that these live in. The constitution was written by people who new how much of a villain a big and strong government can be. I wonder how people can so easily be entranced, its scare to think so many people in this world are so illogical.

  If you dig deeper, you’ll find court cases going back to the mid 19th century where it was ruled law enforcement or any gov’t based “authority” does not have a duty or obligation to protect anyone. Lawsuits on this have going on for well over a century. We’re on our own, folks, even though today’s “authorities” will do their utmost to prosecute you for defending your life and property, yet in the same courts will say protection of your life or property is not their obligation. Screwed if you do, screwed if you don’t, the tell-tale result of an unjust and oppressive government

  To watch children exploited for a political purpose is disgusting. To exploit them is to steal their innocence. No child truly understand what violence looks like. Obama is still on the campaign trail and not acting presidential.
  
  If he truly wants gun control, why not start with gangs. If gangs can’t be disarmed, how can millions of legal gun owners be disarmed.

  “If they REALLY cared about children, they would stop performing abortions.”
  
  While I personally agree that abortion is murder when there is no immediate threat to the life of the mother, anonymous, I disagree with your statement in that they (meaning the “pro-choice” side) does not believe the fetus to be a human being yet. If you do not believe it human, it cannot be murder by definition. I think they are wrong, but that is their justification and it does make sense. What doesn’t make sense is that one believes the unborn is not a human child. Years of indoctrination is most likely responsible for that.

  CatB,
  I know. They left those kids bloody bodies (the ones that nobody has yet seen) on the floors and then called all their buddies over to have a look. Quite sickening actually. Our legal system (joke) is nothing more than a hiring hall. A racket designed to extract income and provide employment to a portion of society that favors big government. That’s it. They don’t care about justice. They care about their privileges and their pensions. We are of no concern to them. And, neither are our kids. Only their kids matter. Our kids are nothing more than cannon fodder.

  Start the video below at the 1 minute 30 second mark – THE SIMILARITIES ARE EERIE! Especially the scene from the United Nations. Must see. We’ve seen this “movie” before in the 1980′s……1987 to be exact. But it wasn’t Ronald Reagan that used “children’s letters” to take massive action on a major issue of the day. It was someone else we all recognize. (see video below).

  Just like Christopher Reeve (Superman) in “Quest For Peace” President Obama and the elders of Krypton (progressives) have come down to save us from ourselves. If you recall the ending of the movie it doesn’t turn out very well for the plan is used against the people by evil just

I can understand these kind of thoughts coming from kids with immature brain waves. What is most frightening to me is that the same kind of things are coming out of the mouths of adults who still think like children and then try to make laws to “rule” by.

All dictators use children in their propaganda it’s very effective with the simpletons who support the fraud in chief,they’re easily fooled because of their naivety. Those are the type of parents that would willingly give their kids to the state. They already did in the video,the state used the pawns for their propaganda and the so called parents weren’t intelligent enough to realize it.

I also wouldn’t use children as a prop like previous tyrannical dictators. This guy is just pathetic and the left cover for him on everything. Don’t talk about his kids. All the while he’s using someone else’s.
  This country is on a VERY slippery slope with the way the left is vilifying the right, joking of killing/arresting political opponents, exposing our families and property to danger all with the cover of a very powerful propaganda machine. Anyone with any historical knowledge has seen this before and knows how steep the slope gets once disarmed.

Shameful propaganda. Using children this way should be illegal. Tantamount to child abuse.

  They know a child will repeat almost anything they tell them to say. That is one reason they like to use children to put their lying agenda.

I am surprised that 11 year old Julia was aware that laws are passed by Congress,while that fact still flies over Obamas head. I think these kids parents did their homework for them to win the competition assigned by their teachers to write Obama about gun control.

  i hope little Julia’s parents never has to hug and love their way out of a home invasion by a rapist. the problem with these kids is they are way too shielded from reality and don’t know about evils of the world and why the good guys need guns. maybe she should take a look at some of the gang aftermath pictures

“…please don’t let people own machine guns or other powerful guns like that.”
Apparently he didn’t get the memo… it’s now called “military style weapons”.

“I think if they are no guns on the street…..”
Written by an adult liberal and not an 8 year old.

“The only thing they do is harm or kill….”
If and when she ever gets to a firing range she’ll understand. I’ve fired over 50K rounds and never killed or wounded anybody. (For the trolls… no, I’m not a bad shot either)

I wonder how this kind of exposure, at these young ages, will effect them later on?

“Many critics will see the videos as an attempt to emotionalize the debate surrounding gun control.”

Well, gee, erahhh, I wonder WHY?

Could it be that there’s just a teeny, weeny, itsy-bitsy bit of…TRUTH in that?!?

  Q: Are a Democrat?
  Q: Are a Republican?
  Q: Why are you a Democrat?
  Q: Why are you a Republican?
  Answers: My parent’s are Democrats; therefore I am a Democrat. My parent’s are Republicans; therefore, I am a Republican.
  If the parents are President Obama supports then the parents’ children are Obama supporters. Thus as the article title states, WHITE HOUSE USES CHILDREN AGAIN TO MAKE ANTI-GUN ARGUMENT: ‘THE ONLY THING THEY DO IS HARM OR KILL’
  As you can plainly the parents are okay with President Obama in using their children as “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” The Crisis: Gun Control.
  
  Obama Supports – you can view the list here:
