For anyone considering an Ivy League education you might think twice at the quality eduction you might receive. Proof BHO.

Rioters and Looters is a big news story and a bigger news story would be zero trying to do something to stop it.

The Africans should go back to Africa and then come back as immigrants.

Or stay here and get a free education with good grades in English and science.

That’s right. Does anyone think a company like Walmart would put one of their supercenter stores in these kind of neighborhoods, where the residents tend to burn, loot, and destroy?
No way. It’s a shame, because those stores employ hundreds of people, most of them from the local community.

We need a national conversation about race. Just don’t mention riots, looting, gang shootings, the knockout game, black on white crime, black on black crime, or welfare. Slavery and the KKK are fine.

Well, the riots happened, and there’s an honest warning via the news for people to stay away from Baltimore, it’s an event far too big to ignore.

Well, just because you are educated doesn’t mean that you won’t go along with the crowd, proof BHO. That’s pretty much what he has been doing, going along with his liberal elite buddies. If you think it’s just him wanting to make a buck without a care in the world as to how it will be at others’ expense, you’ve only hit the tip of the iceberg.

Thought Obama was going to fix that lack of economic opportunity for all Americans.

Gee, sure seems like that didn’t happen.

Odd.

In a speech at Lehman College in New York City, the president said lack of economic opportunity for young people of color in inner cities helped fuel the protests that have been seen in Baltimore, Ferguson, Missouri, and elsewhere across the country in recent months.

All in cities run by liberal Democrats and now overseen by a liberal (Marxist) President. Yup!

The last thing Obama wants is a “broader debate.”

What is going unsaid is that people, irregardless of skin color, who can speak, read and write the English language and present a neat, clean appearance can find work.

And, if they show up on time and enthusiastic, they can keep their job.

Employers are starving for those kinds of people.

OTOH, the thugs I saw rioting have no one to blame but themselves and the LIEberal Democrats who forced them into the horrible place they are.

Out of idle curiosity, I’d be curious to know where the arrested thugs are FRom? Has anyone seen a report? I sense that, as in Ferguson, many of the extreme rioters were not living in Baltimore, but came to stir up trouble. Would love to get a confirmation of the Soros Rent-A-Mob connection!

As the president understands, there are many many community organizers in Baltimore working tirelessly to make things better and bring “healing” to the “community.”

All this racial healing is the one thing I really appreciate about the 0bama administration. Racial demagoguery is really a thing of the past, and we have lightworker Barry to thank.

There are only two viable conservative candidates. Cruz and Walker. Cruz is my choice.

So far he’s mine also.

I don’t like the immigration stance of either of them.

It's like defeating ISIS by offering them jobs.

On one of the programs last week someone said the truancy rate in Baltimore is over 40%. So who is keeping the kids from becoming well educated?

White business owners have a moral duty to invest in the inner cities, providing high-paying jobs to functional illiterates with long rap sheets. Then when their business gets looted in the next riot, they must rebuild in the same location.

Do you ever remember seeing white people do this, I mean looting and burning because a white man died? Obama is trying to deflect criticism for the actions of a bunch of slobs. There is no excuse for grabbing a bunch of paper towels from a CVS because some obscure character died of some unknown (as of yet) cause. Obama won’t address the acts of these slobs. Instead, he tries to make the excuse that they are black and therefore their actions are always excusable. That’s baloney! They must be held to the same standard as anybody else. Not every black person did this. Please remember that. Not every black person in Baltimore is made like that. There are some good people there, people who are waiting to hear what really happened. People who want facts and not reason to be an idiotic clown who sets cars on fire and robs and steals. The bad people like to hear Obama. The good people just sit and wait for the truth.
