"The death of Michael Brown is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family and his community at this very difficult time," Obama said.

"I know the events of the past few days have prompted strong passions, but as details unfold, I urge everyone in Ferguson, Missouri, and across the country, to remember this young man through reflection and understanding," the President said in a statement. "We should comfort each other and talk with one another in a way that heals, not in a way that wounds. Along with our prayers, that’s what Michael and his family, and our broader American community, deserve."

The milk of human kindness kind of clabbered when the picture turned up of the deceased flashing gang signs.

Exactly...that and the fact he tried to grab the cop’s gun and it went off during the struggle. The thug had a very violent rap sheet - all felonies too.

None of these riots are spontaneous, they never happen in a black run city. Coulter found out the most cop shoots black person is in Washington DC, no riots there. If this works out in the PR arena then look for more “riots.”

Thanks for posting, but I just don’t care what Obama says anymore.

It’s a lie or worse.

Is a war vet held in a Mex jail heartbreaking Mr. CIC?

It is to me.

What about 4 Americans dying while looking for help? Where were you CIC? AWOL, as usual. Only thing you're never AWOL from or even late to is T time and fundraising.

Well the dead kid was pretty hefty, so I’ll assume that this son belonged to Moochellee too

Excellent point Laz. Obamer actually would prefer rioting. Much more rioting.

Has he weighed in on Tony Stewart, yet?

Well, the guy that Tony hit was wearing a black uniform and helmet. Must be a hate crime, right?

“What’s he think about a 2-star general being shot in the back of the head?”

Obama only expresses his thoughts on blacks, Muslims and homosexuals, the general doesn’t qualify.

"Wait a minute - isn’t he supposed to be vacationing? Can’t he just eat his waffle?"

The White House has said this is a "working vacation." That means he's "working" on stirring the racial pot.

you want to call heartbreaking:

Benghazi;IRS;Borders;Iraq;people here in the United States turning on one another (shootings, rapes, robberies, etc)

Yes there are many heartbreaking things here in the United States, Israel, Iraq, and what does our leader do, plays golf and fundraise....

that's heartbreaking...

Again a situation that is sad and the crowd obviously is using it as a chance to steal and destroy...I have been watching the same loop since I was 6 years old in 1967. I am numb and then Obama has to speak on THIS ONE incident...what of Chicago or how about New Orleans ? All to fan the flames, disgusting.
