So we should just "let it be" when the man who holds the most responsible/professional job in America says, "we'll just have to let it work itself through," in other words, have your protests and riots, I'm the president of the United States of America and I'm giving you the OK, and "black men are followed through department stores all the time," in other words, they're profiled. That last time I heard "let it be" was right after closing arguments. The black community (who obviously thought the race card would win them another) said, "Let's just all agree, no matter what the verdict is, that we can accept it and move on."

So, dawgitail, who REALLY needs to let it be?

When you have gangs of violent rioters beating up whites, beating up cyclists, breaking windows in court houses, stopping a mother from taking her 7 y/o to the emergency room BC she's having an allergic reaction to some medicine, it's tough to just "let it be." Got it?

You prove my point. He didn't give anyone permission to riot. He said protests were a part of the process. The black community would work through this. He certainly didn't give anyone justification to behave in a violent way.

He understands the reasons for the protests. This does NOT say, "There shouldn't be any protests" when it should, in fact, say that. He GAVE the OK for the protests, and they have only led to violence.

Saying that "It's just something that we'll have to work through" is his way of saying to deal with it and let it pass over. Ok sure, in the meantime, people get their cars jumped on, get punched and beat up in the name of a thug, a mother can't take her 7 y/o to the ER to keep her throat from swelling shut, and who knows what else will happen, violently, between now and the time that the "black community works through this." Grow up, you're all acting like a bunch of spoiled crybabies, and the president isn't helping one bit, he's just feeding them right along. How can you just look past all of this?

Oh I know, because some "white" guy killed a black guy and the facts, paired with evidence let the "white" man off so the blacks are hard up on refusing to believe facts and evidence, thus leading to violent protests and riots. GOTCHA.

So let me get this straight. You are opposed to protests? I personally feel strongly about supporting our Bill of Rights and Amendment one assures our right to "the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." If unlawful acts occur then there are laws to deal with that, but the idea of telling people that they can't protest because something might happen is totally un-American.

Yes, I am opposed to protests. They are pointless. They mean nothing, and they are a complete and utter menace. They aren't gonna bring Trayvon back, they aren't going to convict Zimmerman of murder.

Let me ask you this, do you consider beating a jogger up because he's white, unlawful? Do you consider storming the Houston Courthouse and breaking windows out unlawful? Do you consider stopping people from going to or from work, the store, or the ER unlawful? Do you consider punching a lady in a minivan unlawful, just because she's trying to take her daughter to the emergency room and rolled her window down to ask them to move? Do you consider jumping on passerby's cars and cop cars and hitting them with signs an unlawful act?

Just curious this has all happened during these "peaceful, nonviolent" protests and not a f*cking thing has been done.

This isn't racism to the left. They like this kind of thinking. It's just the white man who can't understand what they have been through.

It's going to backfire on you, zealots.

A link with some context would be helpful. Thanks.

I think he must be quoting a post in the comments section below an article. Boy those really carry a lot of weight.

You are exactly right where I got that and it outlines how people receive his message. That comment is not isolated. We have a huge portion of the population that is downright ignorant and will take the President's comments as a signal to bash whites.

you can expect violence tomorrow after the "peaceful" protests.

Tomorrow? I'm betting on tonight at the latest. Wife is at the store now, I quite literally just told her to buy some extra popcorn. haha.

It's hot out, man. Gotta go release some of this angst. Just got the BIG green light from the top, why wait for tomorrow to break sh!t and burn businesses that we can do today?



That and it's supposed to rain in a number of areas tomorrow, that may dampen the "spirit" somewhat. Let's get this on NOW!

There ain't no IF about it, its already happened and he's now endorsed the lawlessness. So when the first innocent mighty whitey is murdered, What level of responsibility would you place at zerO's feet?

None... "obama is only one man." When a white gets murdered, child or not, we'll have to rely on someone on this board who lives in the area which it happened to post a link from their local news station because it will never make it past the local news. Same way we've had to find out about these other unlawful acts of violence during peace demonstrations.

If I were a "racist" dude, I'd say let it rain, it'll just roll off their heads. Furthermore, Trayvon got killed in the rain so it would make a lot more sense if they rallied in the middle of a thunderstorm, or better yet, a tornado.

Well you know Sharpton and Jackson have these big protests planned for tomorrow. Saturday night in the big town is going to be long night for police across the nation.

Yeah no, to hell with that. I didn't do anything wrong, my parents didn't do anything wrong, and nobody that I know has done anything wrong that would warrant an apology to the way blacks were treated well before I came into the picture. I see all of these idiot lilly white liberals crying like Paula Deen while they apologize to everyone in the black race. Lol f*ck you. no

Who are you talking about?

I agree. Let's get it over with. Clearly the left wants a confrontation. Let's dance.

Oh stop with the drama queen act. No one is suggesting limiting anyone's freedom, but you certainly aren't "Free" to do any of the acts of violence on others he outlined above.

If these go off without "problems" then that's great, have at it and I'll give the entire cast of characters a hearty congrats.

Now, when they don't, what level of responsibility will you assign to the Enabler in Chief?

We need to watch out for a tall African-America, about Obama's height, about Obama's weight, wearing a hoodie in any DC protests tomorrow.

Saying that "It's just something that we'll have to work through" is his way of saying to deal with it and let it pass over. Ok sure, in the meantime, people get their cars jumped on, get punched and beat up in the name of a thug, a mother can't take her 7 y/o to the ER to keep her throat from swelling shut, and who knows what else will happen, violently, between now and the time that the "black community works through this." Grow up, you're all acting like a bunch of spoiled crybabies, and the president isn't helping one bit, he's just feeding them right along. How can you just look past all of this?

Oh I know, because some "white" guy killed a black guy and the facts, paired with evidence let the "white" man off so the blacks are hard up on refusing to believe facts and evidence, thus leading to violent protests and riots. GOTCHA.

So let me get this straight. You are opposed to protests? I personally feel strongly about supporting our Bill of Rights and Amendment one assures our right to "the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." If unlawful acts occur then there are laws to deal with that, but the idea of telling people that they can't protest because something might happen is totally un-American.

Yes, I am opposed to protests. They are pointless. They mean nothing, and they are a complete and utter menace. They aren't gonna bring Trayvon back, they aren't going to convict Zimmerman of murder.

Let me ask you this, do you consider beating a jogger up because he's white, unlawful? Do you consider storming the Houston Courthouse and breaking windows out unlawful? Do you consider stopping people from going to or from work, the store, or the ER unlawful? Do you consider punching a lady in a minivan unlawful, just because she's trying to take her daughter to the emergency room and rolled her window down to ask them to move? Do you consider jumping on passerby's cars and cop cars and hitting them with signs an unlawful act?

Just curious this has all happened during these "peaceful, nonviolent" protests and not a f*cking thing has been done.

That just blows my mind. Life in a democracy is messy. I would rather have problems and freedom than no problems and live without my freedom.

We are a constitutional republic - not a democracy.

We are both. We have a constitution and don't have a king, thus we are a Constitutional Republic. We the people govern ourselves through our elected representatives, thus we are a Representative Democracy. Or you could use the term Democratic Republic.

Oh stop with the drama queen act. No one is suggesting limiting anyone's freedom, but you certainly aren't "Free" to do any of the acts of violence on others he outlined above.

If these go off without "problems" then that's great, have at it and I'll give the entire cast of characters a hearty congrats.

Now, when they don't, what level of responsibility will you assign to the Enabler in Chief?

No drama queen here. I just want to offer a little counterpoint to what you have said. It is pretty darn inflammatory to say you oppose protests. Protest is as American as apple pie. I am glad to see you backtracking from your original statements.

I find it amusing that Obama complained about being "profiled"as a teen. Apparently he forgot about his days with the Choom Gang.

Saying our president is an embarrassment is a compliment to this clown.

A. I never said I oppose protests.

B. It will be a rare day indeed when I find the need to backtrack on much of anything I posit here, unless it's a factual mistake or some stat I blow or whatever.

I will say, however, that I DO oppose lawless riots, burning and looting and pointless anarchy masquerading as "protests" though. Whether they have been condoned by the enabler in Chief or not.

Peaceful Protests are one thing. Obstructions or rioting is another.
