Obama, just today, July 17, 2016, stated that “nothing
justifies violence against law enforcement”, referring to the police killings
we’ve seen this weekend in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. But our dear president has
forgotten his former position on a lesser matter regarding the police in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, and other police matters as well, when he stated that the police
responded “stupidly” to an event before he even knew what had happened.
Our president now also has taken the new attitude that
“we need to temper our words and open our hearts”, and “we need to avoid
divisive rhetoric” following the tragic events in Baton Rouge this weekend. It
appears our president suddenly realizes that his former racist, anti-police
statements were not only listened to by the rabble that would kill police officers,
but these thugs have taken his former excessive words as encouragement to move
forward with their shooting and killing, knowing that Obama would once again not
blame them, but would divert attention to the guns used in the murders as being
at fault. At least Obama, with his new-found soothing words, has finally
dropped the idiotic anti-gun and anti-police rhetoric that has always been his
fallback position, and is now taking the position of the great unifier and healer,
following the destructive words he’s spoken in the past. Why has it taken our
punk president so long to begin absorbing his on-the-job training and finally,
although probably temporarily, begun blaming the killers and not their guns?
Obama, while disrupting peoples’ lives as a community
organizer, could make grand denunciations of the police that he was aggravating
and protesting against in Chicago and his words would be heard by few people,
understood by fewer, and taken seriously by nearly no one. But as president his
words of criticism for the police have caused an enormous divide in America, which
has resulted in an open hunting season on police officers, based on Obama’s own
words, and it’s all on him.
Barack Obama had such a blessed opportunity to unify
the nation and bury racial animosity when a majority of Americans, black and
white alike, elected him president. And now, nearly eight years later, he’s
blown the chance to heal, based solely on his intention to “fundamentally
transform America” and has caused more racial divisiveness and violence than we’ve
ever seen before. This division and hate, I fear, is what modern-day
liberals/progressives/Democrats do, and I know it’s a practice that Hillary
will continue and expand upon if she’s elected president.
