President Obama has asked Americans, on more than one occasion, to search their souls on the question of race. But on Tuesday, in the wake of riots in Baltimore, he told them that unless this soul searching leads to concrete policy changes and more opportunities in communities of color, civil unrest across the nation will not end.
During a news conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Tuesday, the president let his frustration show saying the rioters need to be treated as criminals but that, as a society, Americans have disregarded the dire poverty, unemployment, drugs and crime that have provided combustible material for protests over the excessive use of force by police in cities throughout the United States....

This is, in part, wee barry and his administration's fault and ALL of the Dems who ignored Daniel P. Moynihan's report r50 years ago. Instead, BIG GOVERNMENT stepped in, spent TRILLIONS of dollars on "poor blacks", which has resulted in making them not only poorer, but uncivilized to boot. Spending even MORE money, blaming "whitey", and rewarding not just "bad", but criminal behavior is NOT the answer and never was !
More......obviously.
I have not disregarded dire poverty, unemployment, yadayadayada. I have paid my taxes, lived by the rules, and obeyed the law for 74 years. It is time for these progg politicians to do the same.
Here’s an alternative idea. Pay one of the African nations to host Americans who would otherwise be incarcerated. Like Zimbabwe.
Hasn't Zimbabwe suffered enough?
Tell me more.
“More opportunities for communities of color?” They had an opportunity to get a job at the local CVS.
They lit it on fire instead.
Sounds like a threat.
It is a threat.
The Bastard-in-Chief is effing evil.
The democrat WAR ON LAW AND ORDER continues to escalate.
You can bet Choomer Obama is still getting his dope and cocaine though.
This clown sounds more like Mugabe everyday.
Blame your party Obama
Obama and the left are planning to dismantle our system of having local police forces and sheriffs. They know that this system is a bulwark against federal tyranny, so they are promoting anti-cop propaganda and talking about the feds “supervising” the police.
If people don’t wake up and realize how important it is to have the chief of police answer to the voters in their own city and having sheriffs who stand up to federal power grabs, we are going to be in real trouble. A federal police force will answer only to DC and won’t care at all about the local community.
Well, based on their recent voting record, those criminals would be big supporters of Robert Mugabe and his party. And clearly Zimbabwe needs further assurances that all of its problems arise from white colonialism.
Heck, even Obama agrees with that notion.
