Here's some hope and change you can believe in. I remember when Americans respected authority, but now after 7 years of the "Great Community Organizer" the cops are targets. Strong work Democrats. Really hope you're happy.
Democrats still respect authority. It isn't us screaming "you lie" to a sitting president in a chamber that should be the most respected in the nation. It isn't a democrat thing that people of color are fearful of sending their young adult children to the store, without worry that a racist bigoted cop with poor training, will shoot them dead! It certainly doesn't have anything to do with president Obama either. Killing cops is very very wrong. Cops playing judge, jury and executioner for minor infractions is worse!
I wouldn't call that sheriff an expert on race relations. I would say he is an expert on what members of the Black underclass do to themselves, how members of the Black underclass interact among themselves. There is a difference between that and race relations.
Anything else that y'all like to credit Obama for, like the Armenian Genocide, Hiroshima, Nazis, Katrina, 9/11 and Ebola (oh wait, you did blame him for Ebola). lol
In the last 6 months 14 officers have been indicted out of roughly a million. Wonder how many blacks have been killed by other blacks in that same time frame ? In Detroit alone there were 163... one city. That doesn't matter though , it's always someone else's fault.
But the actual gang of thieves that make cheap guns available to the masses are never at fault. Hmmm. Those that bring drugs, or manufacture, or steal and distribute drugs, armed to the teeth is ok cause black deaths don't really count as real deaths, do they?
Why wouldn't you expect a thug President to support his own?
What specifically makes someone a thug, and what specifically are you speaking of that makes this well educated, quiet, calm mannered, polite, measured, great American success story a thug?

Give me one reason to respect this authority. Just one.
The heroic Boys in Blue in the Ferguson police department picked up the wrong guy, beat him up in the precinct, and charged him with 4 counts of destruction of public property for bleeding on their uniforms.
I am not making any of this up. Wish I was.
Did anyone care? Not until the national spotlight was turned on those little backwater hellholes where the city government relies on fines and court fees for a substantial part of their budget, and the police eagerly helps with the shakedown.
he came into office with the concept of the people he organized in Chicago. They are killing each other off for decades. Just too bad he does not take his role as chief law enforcement officer seriously. Inner cities are continuing to go to dumps ;not changed.
How, do we possibly get the jobs and infrastructure necessary to keep the inner cities from becoming slums and dumps with republicans in charge? Any suggestions here folks!

Let us not forget the "for profit" jail industry making these hellish backwaters a revolving door they can never get out of.

I seem to recall Obama's stimulus of ONE TRILLION DOLLARS when he came into office. Why was very little of that spent on infrastructure? And Democrats were in control of the Senate, House of Representatives, and the Presidency at that time, so plenty of opportunities to build infrastructure without interference from Republicans.

That's weird - all the neighborhood dogs just started howling.
