Local Newspaper Publisher: Obama Would Not Be Welcomed in Roseburg, Oregon

umpqua shooting 2
Nine people and the mass murderer were killed at Umpqua College last week.

David Jaques, publisher at the Roseburg Beacon, said Obama would not be welcomed if he came to town after the shooting.
His agenda is to “take away American’s rights to own firearms.”

Breitbart.com reported:

David Jaques, the publisher of the conservative newspaper the Roseburg Beacon, says he believes that President Obama would not be welcome to the town after making remarks politicizing the shooting that left nine dead and nine injured at Umpqua Community College on October 1. Jaques told Breitbart News that he believes officials of Douglas County would also not welcome the President using the tragedy to score political points for a gun control agenda.

Any visit by President would be “a campaign stop for agenda to take away American citizen’s right to own firearms” said Jaques in an exclusive interview.

Jaques said the region is proud of Sheriff John Hanlin, who he said “put the administration on notice that if you pass any laws, edicts or executive actions that are either unconstitutional or extra-constitutional, they will not be enforced in Douglas County.” Hanlin has been savaged by the liberal national press after his letter to Vice President Joe Biden opposing gun control came to light.
