AFP ^ | Sep. 1, 2015

Washington (AFP) - President Barack Obama vowed Monday to push for police officer safety after a Texas sheriff's deputy was gunned down from behind and shot multiple times at close range.

Darren Goforth, 47, was killed late Friday in the Houston area, and local officials have blamed ramped-up rhetoric against police officers in the United States in protests against perceived police brutality.

What is an acceptable cop killing?

When they storm your house, killing your dog and kicking in your door only they have the wrong address. FRONT TOWARD ENEMY

We don’t believe that you really believe that, obastard. You are a pathological liar, and this is just another case of you lying.

Go back to your golf game and leave fixing this mess YOU helped create to the adults in the nation.

Let me guess: MORE GUN CONTROL is going to be his solution.

Of course it is. The leftscums' solution to everything is (1) more gun control and (2) more taxes and regulations.

He's also probably trying to figure out how to (1) blame this on "whitey" or (2) blame this on "climate change."

Since he and his ilk caused this situation I guess he is trying to find some weasel room. Effing moron needs to stick any comments where the sun doesn’t shine.

Black thug is killed, he calls for riots in the streets.

Cop is killed, he writes a sternly worded letter.

All this means is that the black murders this week are costing them public opinion. And that he thinks he can use it to grab more power in local policing under the guise of “protecting police”.

And yet not a peep from obama’s DoJ regarding the rampant, racist hate speech by these vile groups advocating murdering whites and cops. In other words, no real action by obama, just a few more empty words.

[btw, can you imagine the hell-storm the DoJ would be bringing if these were white groups advocating murdering blacks and black cops?]

Why did it take several days to issue a statement?

VERY good question. Why?

* “Unacceptable”
Well, those are hard words. *

He might even give a cop killer a demerit, but one of his good buddies in the DOJ will expunge it.

Oh, I'm all atwitter awaiting to see what form presbo's outrage will take. A cancelled multi-million dollar vacation, a push to disarm honest, law-abiding citizens, a state dinner for visiting ISIS "dignitaries"...

Please be aware that the acronym for the charitable organization named in the promotional piece shown below is in no way to be misconstrued as a reference to that OTHER acronym generally understood to mean “For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge”. The Washington,D.C. Based founders were stoned when they conceived the organization and failed to recognize the prospect for confusion. They initially rejected the name The Society for Clueless Racist Egocentric Wimps as too suggestive. They apologize if anyone is offended.  photo I AM CLUELESS fuccer eyes_zpsujwgnk2w.jpg

“unacceptable” is what you tell your preschooler, regarding some minor behavioral issue.

This illustrates the inability of the left to address right and wrong, in any meaningful way.

If Obama really cared he and Holder would apologize for sending 75 FBI agents to Ferguson in support of a common criminal and thug - Brown.

That’s where this started... and that’s the place to end it.

Hmmm...then he’d be disrespecting his peeps and admitting one of his sons was mentally incapable of owning a firearm. Bit of a dilemma there...

He will push for police officer safety? What’s that mean?

If this one was completely unacceptable, what were the other executions? Fairly unacceptable, barely unacceptable, completely acceptable?

The full quote: “This cop killing is unacceptable. Folks are expecting me to address it, and that takes away from my tee time.”
