[quote=utcsox][quote=Blogstar] He knows he didn’t bring hope and change to Ferguson so he has to cover up by scapegoating the cops by letting the racist innuendo fly. Bread and circuses at it finest lead from the top.
The whole race and poverty thing is mired in dirty politics.[/quote]
Where is the “racist innuendo” that you are referred to?[/quote]
O.k. His speech was not as bad as I thought.
The response , including sending Holder and committing substantial DOJ resources to Ferguson on what basis? That the person shot was black and people are rioting. I read that 50 DOJ personnel were put in the case, on what basis? We have no information that it is even likely that the cop cold blooded murdered a guy . Nothing to say there was a civil rights violation. Even if there was do we need this kind of response to get to the bottom of it? I don’t think so. Common sense is being violated.
Why is this a time for Obama to go on about the plight of black youth? There are multitudes of actual murder scenes involving young black men that present opportunities to do that. So admit you have to do it because of the riots and looting and because al Sharpton a few other black lawyers and the media are completely out of control , not because of the potential crime. It’s Trayvon Martin all over again. Only this time Obama was smart enough not to say the Alleged “victim” could have been his son. Politics of race is the only reason for him to get involved. His constituents are going nuts.
If Bush or even Bill Clinton were president would it be reasonable to send the attorney general and 50 DOJ personnel out to Ferguson on this probable non-case?
One aside, When the police shoot someone in self defense or there is the potential that occurred , the word victim should be reserved for after a conviction. A person who instigates retaliation against himself by a cop if the cop is cleared, he is a dead criminal.
