WASHINGTON President Obama responded with passion and frustration on Tuesday to the violence that has rocked Baltimore and other cities after the deaths of young black men in the hands of the police, saying it was part of a slow-rolling crisis that demanded a period of national soul-searching to resolve.
Speaking in the White House Rose Garden, Mr. Obama called for full transparency and accountability in a Department of Justice investigation into the death of Freddie Gray, the young black man who died of a spinal cord injury sustained while in police custody. But he also said his thoughts were with the police officers injured in Monday nights unrest in Baltimore, which he said underscores that thats a tough job, and we have to keep that in mind.
...
Mr. Obama showed flashes of anger during what was apparently a carefully thought-out response to the events in Baltimore. As he has before, the president bristled at what he argued was the news medias habit of focusing on dramatic images of brutality and chaos rather than on what have been mostly peaceful protests in Baltimore and other cities.
One burning building will be looped on television over and over and over again, and thousands of demonstrators who did it the right way, I think, have been lost in the discussion, Mr. Obama said. The overwhelming majority of the community in Baltimore, I think, have handled this appropriately, expressing real concern and outrage over the possibility that our laws were not applied evenly in the case of Mr. Gray and that accountability needs to exist.

In a country of 300 million people, it’s basically statistically impossible to avoid all deaths of black people by police.
There are a dozen people in USA that die by food poisoning from church picnics each year! There’s no way you can stop something 100% in a nation with that many people interacting.
Barry Hussein Shabazz Davis 0bama-X is just upset that it is only rolling slowly, rather than rapidly.
Kinda like the media focusing on the one bad cop and not the thousands who do good things day in and day out. You reap what you sow.
Obama only has another year and a half to fix it. Why didn’t we give him more time!
“President Obama responded with passion and frustration .. [and] demanded a period of national soul-searching to resolve.”
The nation resolves to no longer elect race-baiters such as Obama (who supports Holder, Sharpton, and other similar leftist activists) that wish to incite violence on this nation with their racist antics.
Conceived by you, zer0 and facilitated by your race baiting buddies in the MSM and rev Al. All for the purpose of being able to call for marshal law and an end to presidential elections. Reichstag fire.
When the hell did he start caring about THAT?
He should know, he’s orchestrating it.
Lock and Load all law abiding citizens. The animals will soon make the inner cities totally uninhabitable wastelands. They will spread like the plague to the surrounding suburb/rural areas. They will come with evil intent and hateful violence. If you are not prepared get busy.
If you watch GAME OF THRONES: The WINTER is coming.
Events in Baltimore Reflect a Slow-Rolling Crisis Across U.S., Obama Says

Once again FUBO is FOS. The antics in Baltimore have nothing to do with the real America. Let them ferals have their rioting and looting. And meanwhile life goes on for the real Americans who work and pay taxes and watch the networks report on the obvious outcome of liberalism and black racism.
Maybe the rioters should roll it down road just a bit to Obolas front yard.
