OBAMA, Seriously?? WTF SMH
 

http://www.cnn.com/2013/07/19/politi...html?hpt=hp_t2


Seriously?

"The audacity to again interject his opinion into this matter is disgusting. He's really bringing up "Stand your Ground" when it wasn't even part of this case!? Obama is acting like an absolute ignorant reprobate"

Obama is an idiot and you are just now figuring this out? He can expose himself now that he doesn't have a reelection possibility.

He brought up many points that had nothing to do with the trial. In fact, not much of his comments were about the trial. He never said stand your ground was used in the trial either. I personally think that Obama makes mistakes when he talks about news items from the oval office because people weight his opinion too much. This is one where he's speaking about racism in America so I have no problem with it. There was utterly nothing to do with racism in this case in my opinion and I think that was shown in the trial. But it's another one of those things that brings the topic of racism to the foreground again.

As I listen to Obama there is absolutely nothing in his speech to do with any facts in this case. It's just a few minutes about racial disparity in America and I'm not sure that's very disputable. There is plenty of racial disparity. Just look at that recent Cheerios commercial. People freak out because *gasp* there's an interracial couple with a mixed child! Oh the horror.

If I was a racist I wouldnt want a light shining in my face either.

I wouldn't say Obama is an idiot. I will say he is "less than great". What we need is a great president.

I am vastly disappointed on how our government is handling the Snowden crap.

Obama is an idiot x2

This shit is unreal.

The President of the UNITED STATES is unashamedly race-baiting.

It's funny watching you old angry white guys stomp your feet and hold your breath as your 1950's utopia is slipping away....away....goodbye....

Lol! Get used to it. Zimmerman got off scott free for killing an un-armed black teen while a black woman was sentenced for 20 years for shooting her gun into the air to scare off her abusive husband.

The Stand Your Ground Law is fucking BULLSHIT and was pushed through Florida and other states by the GUN SALES PEOPLE of the NRA which so many gone lovers worship.

President Obama is right to get involved. The problem affects the whole country. The stand your ground law attempts to fix a problem that never even existed in the first place. All it does is make it easier for gun lovers to carry and shoot guns without worrying about the consequences.

I tend to agree it's a "solution" to a problem that didn't exist. It's also a fact that even as a state senator, Obama was against these sorts of laws. He famously, or infamously, or most likely nobody remembers, was against a law in Illinois that would have outlawed opening an adult business within a certain radius of a school. Obama took shit for it but pointed out that existing zoning laws already addressed that issue. He's not stupid or idiotic, but people will always disagree with some things from some people, so no big deal.

Again this short speech is not about the trial and mixing up facts of the trial, it's just a talk about a subject that has been opened. no big deal.

Well now, seems to me like Obama relished the opportunity to finally bash America for what happen decades ago, using this tragic event.

Get ready for another weekend of people acting like idiots, mobbing innocent people on the streets, flash mobs in stores, attacking police, busting windows, ect.

exactly.

lol. Says the Canadian who clearly doesn't know shit about US laws.

Im not so sure there was nothing about race in that trial. The state put the girl on the stand who clearly stated that Travon said to her he was being followed by a " White ass cracker " and I dont think it gets any more clear than that.

Exactly.... The Gov and President need to sit back and figure out what is important and focus time and energy on that.

Nothing you said had anything to do with this case....
I didn't read your case about the woman, but just from your words sounds like she NEEDED stand your ground.....

Tell me how Zimmerman could of "retreated" once punched and on the ground?

You are prob one of the people who believe the neighbor hood watch people should watch from the window of the houses???

Time to take the country back from Criminals!!!

It is always good to hear from someone that does not know what they are talking about. Stick to subjects you have a clue about. :2 cents:

You are a self-hating nigga loving liberal apologist fag.


Stand Your Ground wasn't ever in the case, you stupid dumbass. Zimmerman was found not guilty of murder claiming a self defense.


Considering the racial tensions that are already flaring up after the verdict, this is one of the most irresponsible things he could have done.


In other words, STFU because you have no clue WTF you are talking about.

he's always been that way, remember that's what he did for a living before becoming the prez :2 cents:

And every day the POLICE here in the U.S. kill an unarmed person as well and get away with it.

And every hour of every day young black thugs kill un-armed black teens and get away with it.

The woman firing the gun in the air didn't have a good attorney. I've been watching guys like Mark Geragos describe how most people get railroaded into jail every day because the Judges, Prosecutors, and Cops all hold hands and they have unlimited resources (free taxpayer money) as well as hiding evidence etc. (like they tried to do in the Zimmerman case)

He said that they run right over public defenders who aren't in the same league as Zimmerman's attorneys were.

Same thing with OJ. He would have went to jail if not for the "Dream Team" lawyers he put together back in the mid 1990's.
He didn't have the same caliber of attorneys here in Vegas a few years back, and so he sits in jail.

Anyway...it's obvious that nobody really gives a shit about the black teens being shot down TODAY by the dozens by other black teens. Or all the unarmed people who will be shot to death by the cops this week.

Who cares?
All the world wants is to see George Zimmerman DIE. Now.
So let's just shoot that dumb fuck and get him off the news and off of GFY already.

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Zimmerman's mistake was interrupting Saint Skittles on his way home to make some "fire-ass lean". You know, Purple Drank, Sizzurp. Saint Skittle's mistake was sucker-punching Zimmerman, and executing an MMA-styled ground and pound, unaware that Zimmerman would defend himself in spades. One mistake had larger repercussions than then other.

Obama says, "Trayvon could have been me" - Oh God, wishful thinking!!!

Is it me or does Obama look like he's on something

I don't see a problem with this. Race is an issue in the country he is a leader of.

It is not his job to lead us on Social issues the country faces just as it is in military and economic ones?

Its a pretty simple and effective analogy. This kid that was killed doing nothing wrong (sorry I think attacking someone stalking you at night is self defense) could very well have been Obama who as the current president of the U.S. is the most powerful human to have existed.

Do you really think there isn't a huge part of this country that looks at a kid like Trayvon and discounts who he can become?

He has been in office for 5 years and he addresses race quite rarely. If I was the first black president I would remind every white reporter I encountered what he score is.

How do you sucker punch someone stalking you? Seriously how does that work.

I read the comments in this thread before actually listening to what Obama said:



The irrational seething anger directed towards Obama is kind of comical to watch. Racists foam at the mouth when the issue of race is discussed, and of course the right wing is playing this up for all that it's worth, injecting racist attitudes and propaganda into the discussion, desperately trying to shore up their diminishing white base by dividing people.

ADG

As a Crime Watch Captain, Zimmerman's attempt to ask Martin what he was doing there (perfectly legal) was answered by a sucker-punch to the nose (misdemeanor assault at the very least). Seriously, that's how it works.

ADG... A lot of the political heat for this is simple:

Obama never gave a press conference over the gun running to Mexico that was done by his ATF and never gave a press conference to talk about our govt. agent who was murdered by those guns

He never gave a single press conference about our diplomats being killed in Benghazi

He hasn't given a press conference about the IRS targeting people.

He hasn't given a press conference about the NSA spying on people.

He doesn't give a press conference on the multitude of young blacks being shot dead in Chicago where his crony and former Chief Of Staff Rahm Emanuel is mayor.

Yet he felt compelled to interject himself in a criminal case from Sanford Fla.

Yes, there is a "race problem" in the U.S.

But it isn't that white (or "white/hispanic") people are hunting down black teenagers like animals...THE problem is black people killing black people.

Wonder why he didn't call a press conference for that? Or why it happens everyday and doesn't make the news.

No, we don't know the names of any of the scores of young black men who have been shot dead every day by other black men. But we all know Trayvon's name.

THAT is racism. And it doesn't address any "problem".

The problem is black on black crime. But it's too "sensitive" to be able to be discussed because if you point out the facts...you are a "racist".

Isn't that damn convenient?

Kept going back to History, that blacks commit crimes because of history..
SAD
Making excuses.

Hey remember this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_...st_controversy

That's not a sucker punch bro. If you are a grown man stalking another (almost) grown man on a rainy dark night and then decide to approach them, you decide to approach you should be ready for them to strike out.

Especially, if you assume the person you are stalking is a criminal.

And the Crime Watch Captain BS ended when the cops gave him direct orders not to follow him anymore.

Obama is done! oh wait still 3 more years

I am no Obama fan but this is totally wrong

Now all of these are all bullshit but so was his Trayvon Martin press conference

stalking:
present participle of stalk (Verb)
Verb
Pursue or approach stealthily: "a cat stalking a bird".
Harass or persecute (someone) with unwanted and obsessive attention: "the fan stalked the actor".


Uhh...being on the neighborhood watch (and calling the police to make a report) on a rainy night when nobody else is out on the street except ONE guy who is out in the rain and is walking up in people's yards...doesn't fit the definition of "stalking"

I guess I didn't make my point clearly.

Obama called an impromptu press conference specifically about the Zimmerman verdict today.

The things you are linking to are from him reluctantly answering questions from the press.

He never felt that any of those important issues warranted such a thing.
But for some reason he felt that this case did. You know...because Latinos shooting unarmed teen blacks is a huge problem in our country. :(

He only ever answers when he's forced to. This situation was no different. He released a statement saying "respect the verdict" and try to duck away. How do you think this played with all of his supporters and donors.... not very fucking well I bet.

My point is that you can't call of of his press conferences bullshit then single one out as the absolute truth. He's a politician, and whether you like him or not you should respect his political abilities. If it was politically advantageous for him he would say "Trayvon Martin was a thug and deserved what he got" but that's the right wing stance so he needs to be the polar opposite.

Florida will be critical again in the next election so he's planting a flag on what will probably be a big issue for democrats.....

Oh no wait he's race baiting the entire country in order to spark social conflict in a massive covert operation to take guns away and give them to the muslim brotherhood, that makes more sense

BTW I know you don't beleive this Robbie, just trying to make a point

Racism isn't a natural thing that just "happens". You don’t inherit it. It’s a behavior that is taught. Black kids, white kids, brown kids, purple, yellow and green kids all get along until they’re taught not to, whether directly or indirectly by the adults in their life. So what do we do? Lead by example. Regardless of what color you are, it’s not okay to show your kids hatred or intolerance of other people.

The neighborhood watch aspect is valid if the boy was doing something wrong. He wasn't. When he called the police he was told to stop following by the authorities.

The ONE guy walking out in the rain had that right. Does he not? Do you believe walking in peoples yards should be a crime punishable by death?

So you have a citizen following another citizen period. Zimmerman was not an official anything that matters legally. If you wanna debate whether or not Trayvon was acting in self-defense or not fine, howeever I can damn well tell you I probably would have swung first as well.

When Zimmerman started losing the fight, he killed him. Could he have ran at that point? No, Oh well, he bit off more then he could chew.

Actually Zimmerman got off because he shot Martin in self-defence. Martin was assaulting Zimmerman, which is a crime. Zimmerman followed Martin which it might be creepy and un-PC, but it is NOT a crime.

And no, Martin didn't have the right to beat up Zimmerman in self-defence or use the "Stand Your Ground" law because an IMAGINARY threat is different from a REAL threat. Imagine that.

If Zimmerman would have been found guilty anyone could shoot anyone else that spooked them because they "imagined" a threat. You see the difference? Fists hitting your face: real threat. Someone following you: spooky but not active threat.

As for the Florida woman's case, you really should google some facts about it. Just like the Zimmerman case, the media is sensationalizing the case and taking facts out of context.

Cliff's notes:
Marissa Alexander committed aggravated assault (a felony) when she pointed and fired her gun AT her husband.

Her OWN KID testified that she shot AT her husband. And she got the 20 years because of Florida's 10-20-life law which specifies minimum sentences when a gun is fired WHILE COMMITTING A FELONY, which is what aggravated assault is.

And as you read the story, the picture of Marissa Alexander as some kind of martyred wife crumbles.

So, you start fights with everyone following you???

What if Zimmerman also bought skittles and was Also walking home and lived next door to TV... The Whit ass Cracker is Following me... I am going to circle around and sucker punch him....
