Ronnie Dunn, legendary country musician of Brooks & Dunn fame, blasted President Obama’s gun-grabbing efforts in the wake of the Orlando terrorist attack.
Dunn took the fight to social media, calling Obama’s delusional suggestion that more laws and regulations would stop terrorists from committing atrocities “unbelievable.”
In a speech following the Orlando attack, the President called the shooting “a further reminder of how easy it is for someone to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school, or a house of worship, or a movie theater, or a nightclub.”
It’s not apparently, a reminder that Islamic terrorists want to kill Americans. It’s a reminder that guns somehow pull their own triggers and kill people, eh Mr. President?

Country star Ronnie Dunn of Brooks & Dunn had harsh words for President Barack Obama following Sunday’s massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
The star, known for tunes like “Neon Moon,” “My Maria” and “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” took to Facebook following the president’s address to question the call for tighter regulations.
Dunn scoffed at Obama’s call for gun control, saying “The worst mass murder in American history attributed to Isis and Obama steps up to the microphone and implies that it will stop if guns are taken away.”
He went on to analyze “So, a law is passed and we are ordered to turn our guns in (billions of them)…. I bet criminals and “terrorists” / Jihadists will rush to turn their guns in. …..now, that’s leadership. UNBELIEVABLE.”
At last count, Dunn’s post had been shared more than 34,000 times.
He’d later add to the commentary asking, “What would’ve happened if the nations leader had walked up and said….”America, we are now going to offer public national anti terrorism seminars. After you take the courses and pass the tests you will be allowed to attain a carry permit… Arm yourselves. We are OFFICIALLY, at war with a global, radical ideology.”
The first reaction likely would have been ‘Who are you, and what have you done with Obama?’
Dunn went on to suggest that “we should arm America but properly screen and train Americans first.”
“We had to do this in WWII,” he wrote. “America was hesitant almost to a fault, to enter the war until Britain was almost taken over by Hitler.”
Now Dunn said, “ISIS has infiltrated America’s borders and violence of this nature is going to escalate.”
“We can’t sit around and wait to push back.”
The country music legend also pointed fans to a song he wrote “when the planes were flying into the Twin Towers.”
The song is called “Holy War,” and Dunn has pledged that anyone who purchases it on iTunes will see their money sent directly to the victims of Orlando.
