the actual suspicious deaths of African Americans at the hands of police is obscene and insane.
It is an attempt to deflect from the source and root of the issue by implying that the words of the President--- whose hand was forced to comment on the controversy-- have more impact than the actual controversial killings by police themselves.
The fact is, if African Americans have a poor opinion of police departments across the nation, that's all on those police departments by the kind of people they hire and tolerate on their force and by how they have handled these deaths.
Obama didn't lay the ground for the controversy...he just commented on it. The controversy and distrust of the police was there before Obama said anything by nature of the actions of police themselves.

If they don't like police attention maybe they should stop committing an insanely high % of the crimes.

while i agree with you on this, obamas rhetoric just adds fuel to the fire.

So what would you have him say? That the police have been right every single time and in every single instance? And every single African American who has died at the hands of police in recent months deserved it?
No president could say that with a straight face. Not even a republican one.

What did he do? Even when it was clear the police or whoever was in the right, he sent the DOJ after them? That's what you would of done? The BLM has been crying wolf a lot... and Obama has been crying wolf with them with DOJ investigations...

he's being criticized because he's not uniting black and other races, he's dividing them, al huckster sharpton is his 'right hand man' and you know al is a divider, that's how he makes his cash by dividing the races, and obama is right in bed with him....so, he's had 8 years to bring peace and harmony to america and he's made it worse than it was 8 years ago.
OMG...don't you know you're not permitted to point out obvious truths like this?
You sure will be called a racist for that!
Ohbummer's many, many negative comments about our Police Officers have certainly inflamed the situation.

So what would you have him say? Nothing to see here. Move along. Everything is hunky dory.
