That cac's jowls are shaking uncontrollably right about now.

 

[totto]

I mean if he was really about that change life he would have punished all those white cops who killed black men when he 8 years to do it.

I guess if you want to feel good about this go right ahead.

He's a church pastor to me nothing more, nothing less.

You want him to magically snap his fingers and send them to jail?

Is this a real response?

Trump brought out the national guard BTW I'm just saying. Might not be a good time to give the president a pass.

He put in a system of federal oversight on police. The program didnt even get to be fully implemented before trump ended it.

I'm pissed, President Barack Hussein Obama deserves rest, retirement and the comforts of his beautiful family. He is done with a lifetime of service and a job well done, and our gratitude.....


but... this ORANGE POTUSTARD done fucked up so bad Obama gotta come out of his well earned retirement to come help fix it!!!!!!!!!!

 

[totto]

Okay....

We have a president that just raised the bar in hate and open feelings in this country and posses off a lot of Republicans and I don't think he cares much. We got whiteen armed with bats and guns vowing to protect this country and the cops aren't messing with them.

I will never give Obama a pass he could have easily punished cops to the point they would be scared to even mess with us but he gave speeches and sang church helms.

You only life once it's best to let hang and take changes Obama was scared to piss white America off and I think that's a fact.

Wake me up when some wealthy black person stops this people of color nonsense and gets real cuz when we alone we let the real Ed's come out but around other groups we scared.

Next republican candidate won't touch the white if he doesn't let it hang like Trump did.

What exactly could have Obama done?
Be specific

Forced pressed charges on Darren whatever his name was who killed Mike brown Eric holder was in charge of that.

Force it piss people off and send a strong message, at least Andrew guliam was cutting the police budget which is what the fbi came down in him hard for.

If you really stand for justice and equality you can't let cops off because your scared of police unions you let it hang.

You could cut the police budget if they let a killer off send a message, hate is hate.

Obama and Michelle turned the other cheek the whole 8 years.
