White House weighs in on Charlotte unrest: Protesters have ‘legitimate’ complaints
Washington Times ^ | 9/22/16 | Dave Boyer

The White House said Thursday that protesters angered by the fatal police shooting of a black man in Charlotte, North Carolina, are raising “legitimate” concerns about racial disparities in the criminal-justice system. “Those are difficult questions that must be confronted,” said White House press secretary Josh Earnest. “They cannot be ignored.” After a second night of rioting and confrontations with police in Charlotte, President Obama spoke by phone Thursday with North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory to receive an update on the situation. Mr. Earnest said the president wants authorities to ensure the safety of protesters.

He’s not a President. He’s a Traitor.

They are not protesters. They are anarchists helping the Traitor-in-Chief.

So, they can go down during the daytime to City Hall and complain and protest against their duly elected city officials and the appointed CoP.

I have finally figured it out! He IS Maxine Waters......she said the same thing about the rioters after the Rodney King verdict in the 90’s. Basically, they should be excused because they have a good reason to riot. Moral relativism at it’s worst......but this time coming from the highest office in the land. Appalling.

... that protesters angered by the fatal police shooting of a black man in Charlotte, North Carolina, are raising “legitimate” concerns about racial disparities in the criminal-justice system...

Somebody needs to tell this fool that it was a black police officer that shot the man.

Imagine that, true to form!

He’s already decided the facts are what he says they are, therefore, criminals are justified in doing whatever they want to do. It’s all A-Okay.

I'll post this again:

The only prayer I pray over Barack Obama:

6 O God, shatter their teeth in their mouth;
Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.
7 Let them flow away like water that runs off;
When he aims his arrows, let them be as headless shafts.
8Let them be as a snail which melts away as it goes along,
Like the miscarriages of a woman which never see the sun.
10 The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance;
He will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 And men will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous;
Surely there is a God who judges on earth!”
Psalm 58:6-8;10-11

This is his attempt at an American Spring hoping to destroy the way of life in the US. He said the exact same things about the Egyptian protesters.
