I dislike Obama as much as anyone but I doubt that he did this.

I've posted this several times, when Trayvon was shot and O sent Holder and Sharpton down, O didn't publicize how they couldn't find any thing "racist" about it. But he agitated the black community. That's what "community organizers" do. Same with Michael Brown. Obama sent Sharpton and Holder down again "fruitlessly." Does anyone recall the Obama presser where he exonerated the cop? Me either. Anyone remember the DOJ findings that said the police department had several "racist" emails?
Obama has set race relations back several decades. By emboldening every black person who gets stopped by the police he's endangering police lives and black lives. Shut up, give the cop your license and you'll be on your way.
I'm just saying you can't just continue to murder people in cold blood day after day and not expect them to retaliate.

Oh, please. SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!
Trying to use a play on words to make a bullshit point. Who was 'convicted' of murder. Just because there was no conviction doesn't mean there weren't murders, you piece of shit.
Fuckers on video killing, and still don't get convicted. Oh, but there's nothing wrong here according to you dipshits. Fuck outta here with that bullshit!!

That's the whole problem, they're not being convicted!
They're getting away with murder!
And when the justice system repeatedly fails to serve justice citizens are left to retaliate by any means necessary.
What other choice do they have? Just sit back and continue to be murdered in the street?

Are you that dense? Hillary is counting on it!
trying to blame Obama for this is just stupid.
the media deserves some blame for glorifying racial tensions.

I was struck by a couple of things.. first, watching the local network coverage from 1:00 a.m. this morning.. a scene outside a downtown 7-11, where Officers formed a barricade line, while a group of mostly young blacks milled about.. there was a group of black guys cutting up, dancing, looking like complete Goons.. honestly I was shocked, in light of 12 Officers gunned down by sniper fire, a Police barricade guarding the 7-11 that had closed in response to theft shortly before, by young blacks.. and.. these individuals looked to be celebrating, mocking the Police and the situation.. no regard for how they represented the young black generation before live cameras.

And people wonder why some officers snap.
