What a pig.
Roseburg doesn't want him there, asked him to stay away, has been quite public about it.
So of course he's got to come and harass us on our own turf.
This isn't going to end well.
Obama Not Welcome In Roseburg, Says Local Newspaper Publisher
"President Obama will travel to Roseburg, Ore. on Friday to meet with the families of victims of the mass shooting at a community college there last week, White House officials said."
Obama to visit Roseburg Friday
Oregon sheriff wrote, 'Gun control is NOT the answer,' and residents agree
Hard to understand isn't it? A President who is trying to get Congress to just talk about what can be done to stop mass shootings is told to stay away, not by the victims of the mass shooting, but by a Republican endorsed rag that THINKS they know what the victims wants.
Just shows us all how terribly desperate some of these NRA mouthpieces are.....
They don't want Obama or gun control

An ex-girlfriend of a surviving victim scoffed at the idea of tightening gun laws, and Kendra Godon, an elementary education student who hid from the shooting in a nearby classroom, said she hoped her community's tragedy wouldn't get spun into the national debate about firearms.
"That's not the issue," she said.

John Hanlin, Douglas County's sheriff and the public face of the community since the shooting, is also an outspoken critic of increasing gun control.
On his work biography, the broad-shouldered lawman who once attended Umpqua Community College lists three interests: fishing, riding his Harley and hunting.
When Vice President Joe Biden asked for stricter gun laws after the Newtown killings, Hanlin decided to speak up.
He wrote Biden a letter.
"Gun control is NOT the answer to preventing heinous crimes like school shootings," Hanlin wrote in a letter posted on the
Sheriff's Office's Facebook page.
