This whole thing - top to bottom - lit. Me. Up. Obama engaged HORRIBLY.

Let me get this straight: Cops savage Floyd. Someone covering the protest writes an article and drops this quirky phrase. Police Departments LOOSE their flaming minds. Then, Obama steps up and scolds. Do I have that right?

FUNNY THING - IN THAT WHOLE UNFOLDING, THE ONLY THING BLACK FOLKS DID WAS GET BEATEN. That's it - that was our whole contribution to DefPo. And Obama thinks WE need the pull-up?

THEN he has the gall to - AGAIN - suggest what WE do controls what THEY do. Really? Really??

Let me get this straight: We have the power to control police conduct. Instead of using that power TO. STOP. THEM. FROM. KILLING. US, we - because we are complete idiots - use that power to make them WANT to kill us. Do I have that right?

FUNNY THING - IF WE HAD THE POWER TO MAKE THEM DO STUFF, CONFED FLAG CARS WOULD BE DROWNING IN TICKETS. Call me crazy, but the police and Ike - seems like they're making their own choices and just SAYING Tina brought that shite on herself.

Miss me, Barry.
