Obama really hasn't been a player in the whole police shootings issue outside of a few, mostly generic comments that a lot of leaders would make.

Y'all are just uncomfortable that anti-black racism is being addressed at all. Many of you (despite your claims) would probably have defended the police and the KKK in the 1960s against blacks and outside agitators during the voter registration drives.

The real issue is not really racism, but it all boils down to economics and Obama knows it, but he is not going to say it. He needs to address black poverty. and or poverty in general.

You sure will be called a racist for that!

Ohbummer's many, many negative comments about our Police Officers have certainly inflamed the situation.
.

Plus it just encourages his BlackLivesMatter thugs! Mohammed Obama is just itching for the chance to declare Martial Law, is why he keeps stirring this pot! If we would deport him and his dingleberry Clinton to the Middle East, things would calm down here.

Exactly. Black unemployment stats are atrocious, especially for teens, leaving a lot of people sitting around with nothing to do and feeling angry and useless. The Democrats helpfully pushed more jobs out of reach of the young black community by raising minimum wage. Nothing Hillary has said indicates she understands or intends to change the situation, especially if she adds Elizabeth Warren to her ticket. The Democrat's war on big business will continue and jobs will continue to slip away to other countries.

"For young people who have graduated high school or dropped out of high school, who are between the ages of 17 and 20, if they happen to be white, the unemployment rate is 33 percent," he said. "If they are Hispanic, the unemployment rate is 36 percent. If they are African-American, the real unemployment rate for young people is 51 percent."

The Black Power President we have has fueled the division of races from the beginning.. His spiritual leader Rev. Wright preaches that whites are the devil and America is evil.

You aren't serious are you? From day one, Obama's DOL hasn't released an honest statistic when it comes to unemployment.

Nafta was passed by Bill Clinton and the jobs went to Mexico and around the world.

Mexican factory workers make $1 to $2 an hour , but when the illegals come here they get welfare, food stamps, housing, medical all free plus making $20 an hour over here.. they are doing extremely well with all those perks.. while the working American man and woman gets the shaft.

The democrats keep blacks in the projects away from the elites and throw them a welfare check to exist on.. Obama is an elitist and a power hungry guy who take black people for granted.. He does nothing for them . He just divides the races to gain power over them. He doesn't create jobs for them so they can become prosperous.. no , he is a globalist and leave behind the American people for the rich elitists to stay in power. Blacks need to wake up!
