    He is the most divisive president since Lincoln and the Civil War.

    I don't even know what he even says that is so 'divisive'? Can someone PLEASE GIVE ME EXPLICIT REASONS BESIDES VAGUE PLATITUDES? Anybody? No vague platitudes please.

    The only quote I ever here from ilks like you about him being 'divisive' is "Trevon could have been my son'. OMG DIVISIVE!!!

    You can thank the NRA, the GOP and their gun fetishizing sycophants for that.

    That's a great quote, hadn't heard that one before.

    If you have even the slightest bit of intelligence, I think you can figure it out without someone spelling it out for you.

    I guess I don't have intelligence. Just indulge me for a second. Please tell me exactly what he said that offended you. No paraphrasing to make it sound worse. Just an explicit quote. Please do it or don't engage in debate with me because that is the only way I will continue to debate further on this issue.

    No vague platitudes about being 'divisive'... Just a quote. That's all.

    No quotes? Just vague platitudes? Yup I thought so.

    After reading the transcript, he just explicitly called the shooter a racist...


    "BUT OBAMA THINKS THAT BLACK PEOPLE CAN'T BE RACIST! DIVISIVE PRESIDENT!!!".

    So that's the quote that was the statement that was classless to you?

    "And then we tell the police, “You’re a social worker; you’re the parent; you’re the teacher; you’re the drug counselor.” We tell them to keep those neighborhoods in check at all costs and do so without causing any political blowback or inconvenience; don’t make a mistake that might disturb our own peace of mind. And then we feign surprise when periodically the tensions boil over.
    We know those things to be true. They’ve been true for a long time. We know it. Police, you know it. Protesters, you know it. You know how dangerous some of the communities where these police officers serve are. And you pretend as if there’s no context. These things we know to be true. And if we cannot even talk about these things, if we cannot talk honestly and openly, not just in the comfort of our own circles, but with those who look different than us or bring a different perspective, then we will never break this dangerous cycle."

    What do you think about this quote from Obama? What do you think about it?

    Was that offensive to you?

    Or what about this one?

    "Then the targeting of police by the shooter here, an act not just of demented violence, but of racial hatred." - Obama.

    What?? I thought people like you stated that Obama is incapable of stating that black people can be racist?

    It doesn't. Obama is black and some people can't handle it. Not much other good explanation for the complete freak out since he was elected. The anger is palpable.

    More classless behavior from CometsLoser


    Hurling a slur like that makes you feel good doesn't it. If I thought you had an ounce of decency on you I'd be upset with you. You're just not a very good person.

    Yeah, I thought you were the one talking about me being murdered by police. It was so classy, I was overwhelmed. Maybe get yourself a mirror, a little introspection is probably in order.
