Obama discovers “rule of law” in #Ferguson flames
Could have used some of that last week on immigration Executive Action.
The Ferguson verdict is in: No indictment.
The people who deserve the most sympathy in Ferguson are the parents of Michael Brown who lost their son. That makes them the biggest losers and I mean that in a sympathetic way.
The second biggest loser in Ferguson is the liberal media which flocked to the scene and stoked racial bias. Now that the facts are in, they look like complete fools. I mean that in a non-sympathetic way.
The third biggest loser in Ferguson is President Obama who made a hasty statement on the situation which opened with these words:
First and foremost, we are a nation built on the rule of law.
We are? Really?
President who just went around congress for amnesty now says we're a nation of laws. #Ferguson

Watch Obama’s statement below:
You may note that as Obama is talking about peaceful protesters, people are trying to overturn what is presumably a police car.
If Obama truly cares about the rule of law he has a funny way of showing it; and as far as Ferguson is concerned, he’s a little late to the game.

I think you may have forgotten Darren Wilson and his family who will be forced to resign, move away and even possibly change his name in order to try to put as much distance between this and him as possible. I’d say he was a pretty big loser here too. Brown’s Parents only lost a thug who was destined to a short bloody and brutish life as it was anyway. If not this incident, another would have taken him. It was a preordained outcome, merely the timing was unknown. Therefore my sympathies for the family, particularly in light of their actions afterwards are effectively non-existant.
Brown’s mother assaulted and robbed his grandmother over the matter of who had the right to sell Mike Brown swag. Apple and tree metaphors come to mind.
Rorschach, there was a HUGE Twitter Backlash against Obama’s comments and attitude about Ferguson last night – as the Teleprompter in Chief spoke. (The Old Dinosaur Media is not covering it, but a local Fox affiliate did.)
Do you know if there was any support in that Twitter storm for Darren Wilson?
I literally laughed out load when Obama started his news conference with that ‘nation of laws’ statement. He is so full of Weapons Grade Bolognium.
So did my husband and I. We literally laughed out loud at that thigh-slapping whopper!
“Weapons Grade Bolognium” That is out-freakin’-standin’!
Obama cannot help himself, he is a pathological liar. If anything, he’s mentally ill – and also our Commander In Chief. Aren’t we the lucky ones?
I firmly believe that this president(I can’t say his name) is God’s judgment on the Unites States.
We have kicked God out of EVERYTHING, and are reaping the consequences of our actions.
We have killed over 60 million babies in the name of convenience since Roe v. Wade.
We “honor” homosexual behavior and change the law to allow homosexual marriage(it’s not gay, it’s homosexual perversion…don’t let them steal the narrative).
Back to the usurper, everything he said was designed to instigate more anger among “his people”.
That’s what he is. A “community organizer”.
Lawyer Kendall Coffey is on MSNBC complaining that this grand jury was different from normal because normally the prosecutor presents enough information to support what he wants to charge, and this grand jury was presented with lots of evidence/witnesses not supporting any one charge.
Whatever happened to the defense lawyers complaint that a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich?
They’re enraged the ham sandwich standard was not adhered to.
Seriously. That’s what they’re saying.
Time to put the ham sandwich idiom to rest. It is fairly easy to get an indictment but it is no slam dunk, specially when the prosecutor does not take a side.
That statement was made3 in the 1930’s and a lot of pro-defendant reforms to grand juries have taken place since then.
I’m not sure about that.
1930?! What are you talking about? It was 1985.
This man does love to poke a finger in the American eye, doesn’t he.
what do you expect from someone who is not a citizen of the U.S. At the very least he is a British/Kenyan citizen because of who is claimed to be his father.
He was born in the USA. He’s an American citizen.
The family? Did you watch the video of the mother? She was calling for violence. The most common word out of her mouth was MF’ers and wanting to get even. She says she has lived in Ferguson her entire life. Obviously she doesn’t have a problem with what has happened to the city in that time. And how about the guy at 1:25 in the video saying to “burn it down?
Yes, it is horrible that a person lost his life. But how does it go? Such is the thug life.
Disappointed that the cops aren’t defending more businesses and stopping the violence by ‘point blank’ shooting the rioters. It should never have been allowed to proceed this far.
I have a suggestion for all families, not just black and not just in Ferguson. Teach your children to obey the law, and especially obey the police. When the police tell you to get out of the street, get out of the street. There is no dispensation for blacks. Plus…teach them not to rob convenience stores.
I am sick and tired of the disrespect for the law by “modern” progressives.
“Burn that b***h down” guy was his father.
Stepfather. But still…
this is the same woman who assaulted her own mother.
I think last night Pres. ScamWOW cleared up any misconceptions any LEOs might have about how he supports them, and the idea of law and order.
So much more community organizing to do…
Not to mention fundraising and golf … oh, and mingling with Hollyweird celebs.
Time to cut off Hollywood’s overly generous tax credits.
The president’s reaction was beyond disheartening. His lack of support for the officer and his family after their lives have been ruined is unforgivable. The facts show that the officer was in the fight for his life. Officer Wilson is in hiding as he has a target on his back. This is in no way over for him and it never will be. Our Officers put their lives on the line and face violence, blame, and negativity on a daily basis for very little in return other than pride in what they do. They believe in protecting others and at times must protect themselves. What are we telling them when this kind of circus is created and blame is placed by our politicians and our liberal media when they simply protect themselves? Sadly, Officer Wilson’s life is the one that has not been valued. He has been used as a pawn to create racial tension. As the wife of an officer this is a scary time when the facts clearly show that this was a life or death situation yet still the Officer is villainized. The emperor is wearing no clothes. Can anyone else see it?
What is sad is that you actually sound like you expected something more from Obama. He is not only part of the problem, he is the problem. Chaos rules supreme. May your husband remain eternally safe from harm.
Yeah!
Obama = Problem
Obama is like the arsonist that returns to watch the fire with the crowd, coyly admiring his work.
Except Obama gets a platform to pontificate about the “bad cops” that lead to these things. Not a peep about “the system worked”. Or “the officer was fully vindicated”, or “we need to work to give black youth better choices”.
At least we heard last night from one functional group of Americans, the grand jury.
the Brown parents lost their son the day they accepted his violent behavior … it is not a tragedy that Brown was killed but that he HAD to be killed to be stopped … he was a rabid animal … had the Browns not raised a thug they wouldn’t have had to bury him at 18 …
So in effect bad parenting murdered him?
Justice did fail Michael Brown. I believe that if his juvenile crimes had not been adjudicated then he would have been in jail.
First thing I’d like to say is. If the Brown family were being even partially honest with themselves they would admit that their son has always been the largest child in his neighborhood. As he grew older he realized that to get things that he wanted all he had to do was take them, that no one had the guts to try and take them back. At 18 Mike knew that anything he wanted could be obtained by intimidation & if any of his neighbors were brave enough to speak the truth they would admit he has been taking things from people his intire life & relying on his sizeto keep them. I’m sure many of them breathed a deep sigh of relieve when they learn of his death.
On to Obama. Mr Obama & Eric Holder have been trying to start major raialy motivated violence since Obama was elected. Eric Holder sent the intire Civil Rights division of the Justice Department to Florida (on the taxpayers dime) spending $135,000. The majority of the money spent was used to pay off local black church leaders to organize protests. Again in Ferguson Obama & Holder have done everything possible to ensure voilence. They have met with Al Sharpton numerous times to make sure that he would fan the embers garunteeing a flame.
This morning 2 FOX journalists were attacked by a members of the riot. One notably wearing a Guy Faulkes mask ( Faulkes was man who used violent riots, arson & bombs to protest in England. Obama & Holder forced the court to twice delay a decision while they got their team into place to organize this riots. England also held protests over the courts decision. My guess is the FOX news camera was destroyed because of the British accent heard from the Faulkes mask wearer ( a white man) as he was giving instructions to other agitators. Sending them back into the fray with orders on how to inflict the most damage on property of those who did not cooperate in the days leading up to this carefully orchestrated act of national intimidation.
Last nights riots were nothing more than a vain attempt by Obama/Holder to be remembered by history as something more than an muslim infilltrator who by law should have never been allowed to run for office & his muslim attorney. Head of the legal “dream team” whose sole function is to plot how to wantonly circumvent and/or destroy the Constitution and to draw the race card anyone threatens to stop the abuse of power.
The riot last night was a carefully prepared statement by Obam/Holder let me translate for those who don’t speak the language of treason,sedition, sabotage & espionage. Mr. Obama & Holder issued the following statement ” Attempt to arrest us prosecute us or remove us from office & we will yell Burn Baby Burn!! And the whole country will go up in flames”.
Only a fool would believe the feasbility of this statement. Obama & Holder spent four solid months setting up this little theatrical farce, it cost the taxpayers & George Soros entirely too much time & more importantly 80 of the top agitators were arrested in this riot. They can’t afford to let the trial lead back to them. Though if there existed any journalists with a modicum of self respect I’m sure a quick check of where the members of the Civil Rights Division of the AG’s office would reveal they have been organizing riots the past month or 4.
Pretty sure the people with Guy Faulkes masks are from Anonymous in America, not necessarily Britain.
It does seem to be undereducated Americans who most misunderstand what Guy Fawkes [note correct spelling] was all about and who most misuse his “brand”.
I’m sad that apparently no one takes AP History anymore.
Obama’s statement:
Blah blah blah (like Charlie Brown’s teacher)…
He always implies that America needs to come up with “new solutions.” Here’s my solution: Teach black kids not to get involved in crime. That one thing will save a lot of lives, and turn a lot of lives around. America doesn’t need to come up with scenarios where blacks don’t have to obey the law. Anytime there are lower expectations for blacks, that equals racism.
I can’t.
I can’t even.
When you cater to the low information voter, this is the response you get.
“First and foremost, we are a nation built on the rule of law.”
That is the first time Obama put his anti-colonialism motives in check: African-American eye-witnesses spoke the truth about what happened. He couldn’t spin that.
His imperial law making, though, is still running amuck.
yes, but does he really believe that?
I didn’t see Obama once try to convince the mob that justice was indeed served, that the facts were overwhelming. Obama was pushing “the fight must continue”, which really is the anti-colonialism fight (his 20 years of Rev. Wright’s Black Liberation Theology). Of course he has to claim he wants peace, so does “the religion of peace”.
The new question is why they didn’t protect those buildings, especially the very building Brown had stolen from. One armored vehicle and a few guys and the looters would scatter … even FOX News was on that scene.
So the next question, “Who gave the stand down order?” (shades of Benghazi). Did the WH lean on Nixon to allow some looting, stand down? It makes great news footage, as Obama noted. But it also is inspiring as an example to the national Sharpton inspired army.
And the attempts of Hamas style bonding with terrorists is rather disturbing as well. Hopefully the FBI is tracking these instigators, like the guy breaking the FOX camera.
We have very clear, authenticated statements from several people that Nixon would not deploy the Guard, who were standing ready to respond.
well I’m not 100% on top of it, but I haven’t seen that. It certainly seems like dereliction of duty. As with Benghazi, can we trace the orders, in the chain of command? How does “let them loot” fit in, and why not communicate with the Lieutenant Governor?
Inquiring minds need to know.
The “religion of peace” wants peace only in the sense that once we stop resisting their rule and allow them to conquer us there will be “peace”. Obama uses “peace” in exactly the same way.
I’m beginning to think he’s making up this presidency as he goes along.
Obama: “OK, we were unable to turn this Ferguson thing to our puposes, but there’ll be other opportunities and we must continue the fight. I’ll direct my Dept of Justice to start police retraining programs. Justice provided by criminal courts at the local level simply isn’t sustainable, and ignores the emotional appeals to victimhood we’ve driven into minority communities over the past several decades. Satisfaction of the emotional needs of our minority communities provides the only true justice. Oh, please don’t riot if you can help it, but who could blame you?”
“The legal system acted stupidly.”
“…And, the institutions of law, of society and of the village are broken at the local level. We need the 1%’s money to fundamentally transform these institutions. That’s simple economics.
The marginalized of Ferguson, the out-of-towners, the Socialist Party members had NO CHOICE but to react the way they did. On the other hand, seventy-year old Tea Party members have made deliberate choices against me.
And, furthermore…”
Crump just provided the mother of all derp…
The “system is broken” because the prosecutor and police worked together.
Zoooooooooooe. MG…
Can you imagine what would happen to American cities if their minority communities got the police force they think they want? Ay-yi-yi…
What I just heard on local NPR, paraphrased from memory: “97% of black homicide victims are killed by black perpetrators, therefore 3% are killed by police. 3%! That’s a lot considering the overall numbers. It would be interesting to see how many of those are white police officers….”
Yikes. The stupid burns.
Nooooo…. almost the entire remaining 3% of killers is made up of competing Hispanic gang members in drug turf wars, and of non-black drug-addicted customers in rip-offs, muggings, deals gone wrong, and the myriad ways things go sideways on a regular basis for drugged up antisocial criminals.
Giuliani’s racist accusers (you white supremacist thinker) were sure that black “killers” all go to jail, but not white cops (presumed murderers).
So the 3% not killed by neighborhood blacks are obviously (commie core math per NPR)
shot in self defensemurdered by (probably white racist) cops that are assigned the job of policing gangland black neighborhoods, andsometimes must shootat heart enjoy shooting blackmen with guns12 year old children with candy, for no real reason.There has never been any other race involved, or anyone but racist white cops that love killing black children with candy. NPR laughs at the tea party folks that don’t understand that. If you could only learn to love and obey the talking point laws, your life would be peachy, with a shot of vodka.
Obama couldn’t possibly have uttered the words “rule of law.”
Are we sure he wasn’t talking about Lou Rawls?
I noticed that too. When I heard it, I thought, “You hypocritical POS.” Then I reminded myself who I was listening to.
