Obama Met With Ferguson Activists -- Said He's Concerned They "Stay on Course"
2014-11-17
According to the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has appeared frequently in St. Louis with the Brown family and delivered a speech at Mr. Brown’s funeral, Mr. Obama 'was concerned about Ferguson staying on course in terms of pursuing what it was that he knew we were advocating. He said he hopes that we’re doing all we can to keep peace.'

#13  Maybe Cmdr. Zero will, coincidently of course, announce his "immigration reform" while Ferguson is burning?

#12  I guess now he can appoint Holder as a 'Special Ambassodomite' to this at-risk community and their DHS protectors.

#11  Champ will Federalize them and send in his own general(s) and Homeland Security goons.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon has declared a state of emergency and activated the National Guard in advance of a grand jury decision about whether a white police officer will be charged in the fatal shooting of a black 18-year-old in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson.

Nixon said Monday that the National Guard would assist state and local police as needed, in case there is civil unrest when the grand jury's decision is announced.

There was no indication an announcement is imminent. There is no specific date for a decision to be revealed about whether Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson should face charges for shooting Michael Brown on Aug. 9. The St. Louis County prosecutor has said he expects the grand jury to reach a decision in mid-to-late November.

#9  Obama Met With Ferguson Activists -- Said He's Concerned They "Stay on Course"

Then he played this little ditty for the "activists" and said "I play this every morning in the WH, it inspires me, and takes me back to my formative years."

#8  Stay on course means big riots, police respond, Holder screams police racist, Obama calls it a state of emergency, DHS police take over. Let the lynching of everything white begin.

#7  Plus we have the NFL squirrel this week. Friday or so looks good.

#6  Our Community Organizer-in-Chief is still stirring up social unrest?

IMO that "O" and Holder regret having missed the civil rights movement of the 60s and therefore are trying hard to recreate that era--stirring up trouble and creating crises where none exists. No matter that history has moved on and conditions have changed and improved significantly since that time. That puts them in the camp of race baiters and hustlers like the Reverends.

#5  Yeah, the executive order should come shortly before the announcement that the grand jury won't indict. Unless Obama's timing is off.

It would be unwise to announce the jury decision on a Friday and give the mob the weekend, so Friday is a good bet for the executive order release.

#4  49Pan, the way to defuse situations like this is to keep whitey away until the hired mobs get bored and go home.

#3  SO he hope's they stay on course, as he fills the hotels around Ferguson with DHS Police. I wonder who the DHS Police are going after???

#2  Mr. Obama “was concerned about Ferguson staying on course in terms of pursuing what it was that he knew we were advocating. He said he hopes that we’re doing all we can to keep peace.”

Translation: Continue the civil disobedience. The distraction you create is a great enabler for the regime. Spot on CF.

* Excellent 'whiff of grape' graphic by the way.
