President Obama met with over two dozen people regarding the Ferguson unrest on Monday, including law enforcement officials, civil rights leaders, and young people involved in activism protesting the decision by the grand jury in the Michael Brown case.

“When any part of the American family does not feel like it is being treated fairly, that's a problem for all of us,” he said.

Obama explained that the “most powerful” meeting was one with eight young people who were involved with the Ferguson protests, particularly with those who suffered from what they claimed was unfair treatment from officials.

“When I hear the young people around this table talk about their experiences, it violates my belief in what America can be,” he said, pointing out that the young people of color he spoke to had felt “marginalized and distrusted.”

Obama: Unfair Policing 'Violates My Belief in What America Can Be'...yeah well, mobs from coast to coast who refuse to listen to and abide by the findings of the legal system, instead rioting and looting to affirm their psychosis that society rather than the individual is always responsible for what befalls them, and a president of the United States who reinforces this self-defeating folly by calling a conference to look at what the police, rather than the thugs did wrong - that "violates MY belief in what America can be".......

This wretched man is so deep in transgressions against God’s Law its hard to believe some horrible curse hasn’t fallen on him or his family.

Another testament of God’s infinite mercy I suppose.

Then more so, God will have mercy on His people that trust Him.

Oh its late, I am going to hit the hay.

Of the seven persons of color who protested, “They feel they are not being heard or the reality of what they experienced is being denied.”

Feelings ........... Nothing more than feelings.
Trying to express these ..... feelings of love!

FEEEEELINGS! Whoa Oh Oh, feeelings ..... sniff

Obama’s vision of America is one where “his people” can run amok, attack anyone or steal anything without fear of being stopped by a cop or facing any legal punishment, and the rest of the population cowers in fear hoping not to be the victim of an unprovoked attack.

I didn't get a Daisy BB gun, a pony, a red Corvette, or a 50 room mansion. I wasn't treated fairly. Attention World: that's a problem for all of you. Now tell me what you're going to do about it!!

HOW MUCH IS FREEREPUBLIC WORTH TO YOU?

If you read FR a lot like me, would it shock you to wake tomorrow and not be able to read it?

I’m talking to the members, but I am also talking to those who have not signed in.

I can access FR from work, but I cannot log in.

I can see the breaking news, see the responses and corrections.

I can see silly posts and zots.

I can see my FRiends talking with each other.

When I get home, I can respond and post and interact.

If you are not a FReeper, you can still donate. Just push the button.

$5.00 is perfectly acceptable.

I plan to run a word count on President State of the Union speeches sometime.

You are braver than I am. I do not listen to him. When he comes on I either turn off the radio, change channels, or tune him out.

[Vendome]

Pathetic, pedantic, punks...

[Billthedrill]

The arrogant fool who gave us a Justice Department headed by Eric Holder and a cynically corrupt IRS suppressing his political opposition can speak about “unfair policing”? Really?

The Chief Exec sets an example for lawless behavior.

Where’s the GOP leadership pushing back against this crap?

No, Obama Itself is the third part of the Unholy Trinity. Biden is just the circus monkey on a chain to provide comic relief.

But why do teenagers in Baltimore and Johannesburg have such a dark outlook? According to Mmari, one could point to a combination of environmental and social factors, including the exposure to violence and a lack of social support, which were found to be less prevalent in the three other cities.

“When you look at how they perceive their environments, kids in both Baltimore and Johannesburg are fearful. They don’t feel safe from violence,” says Mmari. “This is something we didn’t really see in other cities. In Shanghai, for example, there wasn’t a great deal of violence. You’d ask kids about their safety concerns, and they would say something like, ‘I’m afraid of crossing a busy street.’”
