Obama and Baltimore Mayor Working In Lockstep For Federal Takeover Of Local Law Enforcement


The President finally came out to speak about the chaos in Baltimore, but instead of condeming the actions of the rioters or even just telling them to go home, he instead chose to take the opportunity to fault-find with police and legitimize and encourage the rioters, Obama stated:

“We have seen too many instances of what appears to be police officers interacting with individuals, primarily African Americans, often poor, in ways that raise troubling questions. And it comes up it seems like once a week now, or every couple weeks. And so I think it’s understandable that, and more importantly moms and dads across the country, saying this is a crisis.”

Of course, Al Sharpton, ever commie’s useful idiot, has joined the game.

Obama also went on to say the situation in Baltimore is indicative of “a slow rolling crisis” that’s “been going on a long time,” only coming to light because of social media campaigns and alert observers with cameras who shed light on police behaviors.

“We have to pay attention and respond to it,” he said, speaking to the “new challenges [in] how police apply” their actions to civilians. The Hill, meanwhile, reported he also called the violence inexcusable and “counterproductive,” and said many of those in the streets weren’t “protesting, they’re not making a statement. They are stealing.”

Obama’s remarks, his first on the escalating tensions, come on the heels of several media criticisms for his silence on Baltimore and failure to use his public platform to help bring an end to the widespread protests.

“The president of the United States, who’s got a big mouth, should have been on national TV last night saying, ‘Kids, go home,’” said former New York Police Department detective Bo Dietl, during a Tuesday interview on Fox & Friends.

Obama is obviously stoking the fire here so he can forward his agenda for the nationalization of local law enforcement. Alternative media guru Matt Drudge tweeted earlier what we all fear, that this violence will go nationwide:

More Info On Baltimore Mayor’s Role In Nationalization Of Local Law Enforcement:

Rawlings-Blake was one of three mayors who provided broad input into President Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing, which advocates the federalization of police departments across the country by forcing them to adhere to stricter federal requirements when they receive funding.

“The federal government can be a strong partner in our efforts in build better relationships between the police and community,” she said in written testimony before the task force.

That would explain her inaction to stop the rioting when it began: by allowing it to spiral out of control, the mayor and her friends at the Justice Dept. could use the unrest to justify the expansion of federal power into local law enforcement, which would also allow her to receive more funding.

President Obama said the Task Force on 21st Century Policing is “directed at the 18,000 law enforcement jurisdictions that are out there.”

“I’m going to be asking Eric Holder and the Justice Department and his successor to go through all these recommendations so that we can start implementing them,” he said. “I know that one area that’s going to be of great interest is whether we can expand the COPS program that in the past has been very effective, continues to be effective, but is largely underfunded – to see if we can get more incentives for local communities to apply some of the best practices and lessons that are embodied in this report.”

And Rawlings-Blake was more than willing to apply these “best practices” in exchange for federal funding.

“Our police commanders are constantly seeking additional dollars, both to develop best practices and to then teach those practices to our officers and our developing leaders,” she also said. “If there is any place where the federal government and U.S. Department of Justice could produce a tangible impact on our officers and our efforts, it would be to provide more resources in this area.”
