President Barack Obama made nice to the nation's police chiefs assembled in his political hometown of Chicago on Tuesday.
He talked of how he wanted to make things easier for America's cops to do their jobs. But he wouldn't say three magic words that every cop wanted to hear:
Mandatory minimum sentencing.
That means mandatory jail time for thugs who carry guns illegally.
"It is true that in some cities, including here in my hometown of Chicago, gun violence and homicides have spiked and in some cases they've spiked significantly," the president said. "But the fact is, is that so far at least across the nation, the data shows that we are still enjoying historically low rates of violent crime."
This is the city where he learned the Chicago Way as a budding Democratic politician and a member of the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus. And Chicago is the city where shootings and murders are up, the city where Mayor Rahm Emanuel Obama's former White House chief of staff says the cops have gone "fetal."

Jail? For his sons? Nah!
Once you accept he ISN’T on Americas side, EVERYTHING he does makes sense.
He wants to let criminals OUT of jail not put them in it.
Actually he wasn’t speechifying to cops.
He was speaking to the politician cops, not to be confused with real cops.
3 key words-—Stick ‘em up!
Let's put even more people in prison? How about revisiting the liberal social policies that have destroyed the Black family and caused this Charlie Foxtrot to happen in the first place?
There isn’t ANYTHING a politician can say or do that will reduce “gun violence”.
.....Just more liberal fantasy-land bullshit.
What type of police chief would attend this fool?
The unions attend because it serves their interest. I have a few cop friends, and if that sample is any indication, Obama is universally detested by the rank and file.
Chiefs of police are generally appointed by some political office holder like a mayor. Chiefs of large departments de facto due to the large populations of our cities are therefore almost all DEMOCRAPS. They follow the party line. There are a few who are different but most are in favor of gun control and various lefty racial practices because their appointers are...follow the line or hit the door. IMO sheriffs on the other hand tend to be more conservative and don’t generally adhere to the policies of the inner city as they are elected.
Correct
Too much ‘choom’ back in his other home town in Hawaii. Or is it someplace in Malaysia. Or Kenya. Or Martha’s Vineyard or, hell anybody know which flavor this week?
That chart screams failure of a social nature.
Osocialist and company are still working to keep the Republic divided.
Post of the day...
Guys like Kass come close but either still don’t get it or are afraid to speak the truth...
WHY THE REGIME PICKED ON THE CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAG AND NOT ROOFS MANIFESTO
Because it was under threat of questioning and possible impeachment proceedings by its so called political opposition. The regime needed to defer or stop any movement toward this.
It was necessary to use a political device usually atrributed to Saul Alinsky but used by the nazi and commies like Stalin with the Kulacks through racial division.
Through the use of the Bully Pulpit. POTUS created persons engaged in felonious assults on authority who were black youths into; Victims of an evil society (thus approving their actions) out of whole cloth.
The regime began with the Zimmerman case which resulted in a series of assults by black youths on completely innocent whites,hispanics, and asians who were either targeted or wandered near or through black gang infested areas. The perpetators excuse; The reported cold blood killing of Treyvon Martin because he was black
It led to a score or more deaths and serious injuries which were treated as local news ignored and forgotten. Including a young Austrailian champion runner vacationing here staying with relatives on holiday in the US that was murdered while jogging near a black area. There were about a score (20) or more of such incidents.And each was met with silence while this was happening. Neither the locqatious POTUS or his political opposition uttered as much as a Now!,Now! or a tsk!,tsk! ..
Those killings were referenced by the Charleston Church massacre perpetrator Storm Roof in his crazed manifesto.

Naturally when it was discovered that mention of those score of murders during the Zimmerman trial were used in this nut casess Storm Roof Manifesto the reaction was....Well, we cant let that out”.
Oh ! But his face book page also has him holding a Confederate battle flag.. KKK Policy on that flag had been by the way was. It was not to be displayed by the KKK in their national marches. Which was allways the Stars and Stripes. When South Carolina governor Earnest Hollings took it out of ceremonial use and ordered it displayed to protest desegregation in the 60s..Where it remained flying on the state capitol dome flag pole until this year. It was misused and an insult to blacks.
Not mentioning the Roof manifesto begs the question if Obama had not proceeded with this perverse progressive agenda which ended up up with scores of killings. Would this wacko have had that excuse .?
Without going into a discourse on the merits what that flag represents which obfuscates and accomodates the regimes diversion from mentioning the “manifesto”. That Facebook page offered “Progressives”a perfect opportunity to pervert what the Confederate battle flags represents from protest into an ensign defernding slavery. At the same time directing any attention from the regimes complicity in engendering those previous racial incidents and unanswerable for those deaths by not mentioning any manifesto..
While some talk show hosts acknowledge theres racial rhetoric of division being used by the regime. They have yet to acknowledge and identify the political objective of its use of (racial) division. Which is permitting unimpeded continuation of the destruction of the constitution through the use of racial division.
That Mr.Kass is what is really going on and only a fearless black leader like Milwaukee’s Sheriff Clarke has had the courage to speak the truth
Clarke went on to blast Black Lives Matter as a phony movement that serves the political needs of Democrats who want to keep a significant portion of their base fired up over issues of race heading into 2016.
Sheriff Clarke is right: this is nothing more than the black community being manipulated by Democrats and race hustlers, who want to use racial division for their own profit and power. But at the same time, these are willing participants here, all too happy to cause chaos, commit crimes, and burn down black-owned businesses, all in the name of black lives matter.
“lock up thugs”
Legal = any black person...esp in Chicago.
Illegal = white victims who protect themselves.
