So... let me get this straight.

The President of the United States told its citizens that its OK to resist law enforcement.
The President of the United States, on primetime television, gave its citizens a free pass not to cooperate with law enforcement officers.
The President of the United States stated that a disproportionate number of minorities "are arrested" implying that they are arrested for no other reason except for being a minority.

Did I hear that right?

[envisio]

WOW.

[Wu]

Yep, that pretty much covers it.

[TADSLOS]

Unless you’re a right wing extremist as identified by DHS. Then, you must surrender on demand.

[Republic]

You got the message loud and clear...and just to make SURE you understand it...be reminded that the black panther, armed (with batons) THUGS that intimidated VOTERS on election day are NOT GOING TO BE PROSECUTED via ERIC HOLDER, the US Dept of Justice Attn General. Nice, huh?

[scory]

I am pretty sure he means that only certain classes of people can resist. If you are white, male, straight and sane you are expected to submit. This includes LEOs as well. Some LEOs are more equal than others.

Actually, I took it as it is okay for blacks to resist arrest from white officers because the white officer’s motivation for the arrest can only be racism. Guess we’ll have to fire all the white police officers and hire black police officers since whites cannot arrest blacks without being called racist. Of course, a black police officer would never be motivated by racism.

Obama revealed his knee-jerk racism last night. He’ll always side with the black, always see them as the victim, no matter what the situation is.

He also said that if he tried to break into his own house,(whether he meant the WH or the manse in Chi-town I can't say) he'd get shot.

Frankly, I would be pissed too if someone entered my home and arrested me for “demanding a badge number.” Once they knew he was in his own home the cop should have walked away, and left it at that. It was beyond stupidity to arrest him.

[envisio]

So, will there be a quota now?

When a certain number of minorities are arrested, will law enforcement have to stop arresting them and wait for the white arrests to catch up?

Or should they just arrest whoever is commiting a crime? White, black, red, yellow, whatever.

In the past year, 0bama has done more to set race relations back than anyone in the last 50 years.

That wasn't the reason for his arrest.
Read the arrest report available on Newsbusters.org,and there's also a couple of links on Drudge.

Honestly, had the arresting officer been black with the same end result would we have even heard anything about this? The news sources that would have left the ethnicity out had the officer been black just to perpetuate a negative stereotype and drive a wedge between black folks and the police. From the quotes I've read from the home owner, it sounds as if he had an axe to grind.

This story reminds me of this quote: There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. - Booker T. Washington.

With the possible exception of Jesse and Al....
BTW..why is Jesse so quiet lately? Anyone else notice that?

[stuartcr]

Sounds a lot like stuff I’ve seen here over the years.

Last thing I heard was that Gates got arrested out on his sidewalk. The incident was done, the cops were leaving and then Gates decided that he still wanted to give another piece of his mind to the cops so he came out and confronted them some more.

First off, the POTUS should never have had a comment on this, but this numb-nut buffoon just couldn’t resist. He has done more to set back race relations in this country than the Klan could ever do in 100 years. I’m sure his statements just grabbed the attention of law enforcement nationwide and revealed what he really is. Hopefully, America is slowly waking up.

[Williams]

Yep, so now every minority has some encouragement from the president to resist a police stop, and to call the cops racist.

I bet black cops hate Obama for this more than anyone.

[envisio]

What if you arrived at your house to find it burglarized. Then found out that the police came and spoke to the burglar, but left when the buglar told them that he lived there.
they didn’t want to push it.

[cavador]

Just don’t try one on in N.Y. State.From what I have heard the cops there have zero tolernce for disobedience.

[immadashell]

You heard a racist declare a state of “victim-hood.”
