Actor James Woods: 'Hate Crime Massacre of Christians Finally Silences Obama'
Actor James Woods, who often takes to Twitter to express [1] political views, has been using the forum to comment on the yesterday's murders at Umpqua Community College in Oregon.
26 year-old gunman Chris Harper Mercer opened fire on the campus on Thursday, killing nine people and wounding seven. Mercer reportedly singled [2] out Christians for death by asking the religion of potential victims before firing on them. Mercer was then shot and killed by law enforcement.
In a series of tweets on October 2, Woods argued that because the victims were Christian, both President Obama and the media would lose interest in the story.
"NY Times writes a front page story about a hate massacre targeting Christians without using the word 'Christians,'" Woods tweeted, linking to story in the New York Times. Then: "If it is determined that the Oregon shooter targeted Christians specifically, that's the last we will hear of it on MSM [mainstream media]."
Woods then tweeted about President Obama's potential reaction to the crime: "Now that it is recognized that the terrible Oregon tragedy was an assault on Christians, will the President still sing Amazing Grace there?" Finally Woods tweeted a picture of the president with the comment: "Hate crime massacre of Christians finally silences Obama. #LiberalLaryngitis."
