The president called the riots criminals, arsonists, etc. and explicitly condemned their actions. How can you listen/read the President's speech and not understand that?
Empty rhetoric.
You should remember that cities like Baltimore, St Louis, Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago etc have been run by Democrat monopolies for decades.
Obama subscribes to the same ideology thats led to crushing inner city poverty, crime, dependance and corruption and that ideology didn't change when he took office.
St Louis, Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, New York before Guiliani took over. ( Obama reminds me of David Denkins )
For example, what did the Obama administration and Eric Holder do in repsonse to Ferguson ? What was their solution ?
To write down a bunch of rules for how not to be a racist police officer ? Yea, worthless.
Anyone who thinks that Police brutality is the single greatest challenge to the people that live in these Cities is IMO a complete moron.
Anyone who watches that video of the High School kids throwing large concrete blocks at the LEOs and comes away thinking that if only we could solve the isssue of Police brutality things would change is fooling themselves.
Obama's and Holders solution to Ferguson was to back a narrative based on a lie. That the Police somehow caused the riots.
Like a good Democrat he ignores the continued struggles of the people that had to go back to living in a community that now is lined with burned out structures.
Nothing ever changes and Democrats never address the real and substantial issues that allowed their Cities to turn into war zones in the First place. They CAN'T address those issues because they're largely repsonsible for them.
There are still burned out structures in Detroit from the riots that happened decades ago.
