Washington (AFP) - President Barack Obama vowed Monday to push for police officer safety after a Texas sheriff's deputy was gunned down from behind and shot multiple times at close range.
Darren Goforth, 47, was killed late Friday in the Houston area, and local officials have blamed ramped-up rhetoric against police officers in the United States in protests against perceived police brutality.

Maybe he should put the issue before a UN committee, with a strongly worded speech.

Obama / Holder & SJW's at the Whitehut have been throwing gasoline on this issue for years now. There are most likely tens of thousands of community organizer groups who have jumped on board the "Social Justice = Dead cops" bandwagon. They are operational and funded by our tax dollars.
Race riots, white trash against state authority, gun confiscation, martial law, are just a few opportunities waiting for crisis.

Six point five years to get us here..., less than a minute to undo what he ushered in.
Yeah, I’m buying it. /s

He’s just going to further federalize the police.

Ditto, and he really doesn’t care how many have to die to accomplish that goal.

So I wonder when he’ll start hammering the Black Panthers with their billy clubs and calls to kill white babies, as hard as he did the Confederate flag.

He started seeing what was being said about him being responsible in the news and on the internet. Believe me, he is watching carefully.

Where is Eric Holder’s statement. Is he too much of a coward to discuss race issues?
