What kind of President steps in when a professor locks himself out of his house and when the police arrived to make sure he was not a burglar, the professor then claims Police Brutality and Black Racism. Obama is your man...he backs everything that's wrong...but it's nice to see that some of the Democrats now see the light and are distancing themselves from him. :dance:

"when a professor locks himself out of his house and when the police arrived to make sure he was not a burglar, the professor then claims Police Brutality and Black Racism. Obama is your man...he backs everything that's wrong..."

my recollection of that incident was that the Prez said the professor reacted stupidly, not just the police officer. Having been in federal law enforcement I can assure you that once the investigating officer has determined that the owner and the burglar were one and the same, YOU LEAVE. You don't stick around and engage and obviously pissed off'd owner. Some cops I worked with HAD to win every argument with a civilian, that made it personal right off the bat. Nine times out of ten we were dealing with someone whose blood was already up when you arrived, after some experience you learned to leave to people to pull their own hair out within the safety of their own property. That's how you keep an even keel to make smart decisions despite seeing more misery and dsyfunction in a single day than most experience in a year. Other guys took a different route and were just a walking bad attitude that continued once the shift was over.

Hey, the POTUS couldn't miss a "teachable moment" for the rest of us dumbells.

That is the world he lives in.
