This dipshit should go to s homie town of chitcago – number 1 murder capital of the world. Who believes this phony anymore?
Thank you ABC News station network for presenting The President and the People National Conversation on race!!!! I would like to pose some questions for clarification from the U.S. President. Did you say that the national crime rates are not as bad as in the last decades? What of the Milwaukee, WI city which experiences ongoing uptick of the African American murder rates just as the Chicago crime rate? So where do you get the national crime statistics from to verify your statement in response? If there are some suggestions as considered to be the breeding ground for the vicious, bloodcurdling and nonchalant crimes, I would like to mention on the gun possession – where and how are the guns if only illegally received in the hands of any unscrupulous shooters and killers? Secondly, how consistent is the background check for every gun seller, buyer and owner after receiving guns as if it is their Second Amendment right clause????? Regardless of the special-interest organization and political affinity, how are the states able to ensure that their laws parallel to the federal guidelines of the gun possession entitlement – in other words, how sure does each state fall under the guidelines in order to ensure the parallel standard for obtaining, licensing, purchasing, and handling the gunfire responsibilities under which model and make of the particular gunnery? Will Mr. President and Vice President please elaborate on these questions through your legal counsel and consultation? I thank you, Deborah F Titus, Concerned African American for All Lives Matter issue
President Obama was faced with questions from minorities regarding issues that he could only comment on, The President of the United States is not responsible for the stupid actions of local police officers. Local government has to step up and deal with the issues on the local level.
Laws are set to protect citizens regardless of their race, religion, or political believes!
It is time for American’s to step up and take responsibility for their actions!
Obummer has been on the pubic dime since birth and he is considered worthless.
If he was a white republican you’d say different.
The white trailor trash of whom you speak are featured here daily, complete with their pictures and tats. And when you see them around town they ain’t riding bikes because they are into fitness!
All they have to do to be accepted is obey the law and get a job so they get off the public’s dime. If they clean up their act no one would have a problem with them. If they are criminals they will be treated like criminals.
Explain this, video by Russian Vids, https://youtu.be/n1TVhsMapAI, video by Zachary K Hubbard, https://youtu.be/BvXNI_ILgJI, don’t be deceived, there is an agenda, it is the N.W.O.
Have you ever had a original thought of your own? It seems like all you can do is copy bull shit sites that no one believes. Try getting real for a change.
Sharing others work is important, censorship is not an original idea all dictators would share your view, have you ever studied the “Learned Elders of Zion”, video by Texxe Marrs, https://youtu.be/-s7-TZYKPG4.
Edit – The book “The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion”, video by Texxe Marrs, https://youtu.be/-s7-TZYKPG4.
Yes my original thought is posting in my view “important” information, that would be a considered an original thought, because I “thought” of the idea to share the videos, also your speaking for others claiming they would not believe the videos,
1.) How can you claim no one would believe the videos I posted
2.) Why do you care
3.) Why are you speaking for others
4.) Why are you practicing censorship
5.) People can make their own decisions
6.) Why are using vulgarity to express your views
this video is about an upcoming event 7/16/2016 it is called “Together 2016”, a young man has done his homework, video by OL’ Cyrus, “The Dawn of Horus”, https://youtu.be/EyourXrmI_M.
I don’t believe a word you post. To me you are one of the left wing loony’s that are ruining this country.
I see you are familiar with Saul Alinsky’s, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_for_Radicals.
I love how LVS posts anonymously now. What a chicken shit. He can’t handle people calling him out for being an idiot. The funny thing, it’s so easy to tell it’s him by his posting. Can see him from a mile away. LOL
No one gives a shit about your opinion. The best thing that ever happened to this city is when you left. Now stay gone Lefty.
Odummy the head racist don’t even care about the 3,000 blacks that have died at the heads of blacks in one if his hometowns ( where he was the community disorganizer ) since he’s been the high controller.
I will be tuning in because I have alot of concerns. I don’t want to see any law abiding citizen shot but I do not understand how rioting helps anything. There is a big difference between protesting for a cause and rioting and anyone that riots should be held accountable.
