Here's a post for ya...

[Soonerjeepman]

obama has time tweet about the muslim kid (if he was a white Christian kid would he?) who brought the homemade clock to school and was arrested for a bomb....but not one word about euro-american cops being killed for no other apparent reason than being euro-american police officer?

not arguing whether the school was wrong or right...

[SicEmBaylor]

Nothing the kid did should have been construed, in any way, as a threat. He made it quite clear over and over and over again that he built the alarm clock because he wanted to start an electronics club. Only the biggest brain dead public school moron would possibly look at anything this kid did and consider it a threat. Every person responsible for what happened to this kid is an absolute bleeding vagina. This is Texas. You're better than this crap.

The real issue here are brain dead government employees and zero tolerance policies that ban the common sense application of the rules and regulations. Zero tolerance policies have done untold harm to this country and will continue to do harm until they're done away with. I want to think this had nothing to do with the fact that he's a Muslim, but I'm not so sure. He should be rewarded by his school not put into cuffs.

How is any kid supposed to feel safe to learn and create when he has to constantly worry that some jackass moron will call the SWAT team because they can't tell the difference between an alarm clock and a weapon of mass destruction? Honestly, I'd be scared to go to school in this day and age. Any little thing can get you sent to jail. Nobody is more anti-education than the government indoctrination camps otherwise known as public "schools."

That's a uh, bold, stand you're taking there.

The White House was right on with that tweet despite the failings of the administration to acknowledge other injustices. You can always say any President should address this issue first or that issue second, but ultimately these sorts of things have to be taken on a case-by-case basis -- the White House was right to side with the kid in a very positive way.

I thought the tweet was classic. Agree with sic'em.

I also tire of reading where Obama didn't say anything about violence against Police. He addresses it.

[yermom]

every time the President talks, he needs to address the important issues first:

-the troops
-cops
-veterans
-whites killed by blacks
-9/11
-illegals
-lines at the VA
-oil
-never forget

then he can talk about how his son could have built that bomb/clock

Got a question? Where was Yalls Outrage, when Little Johnny got suspended for eating a slice of bread into a somewhat shape of a gun?

Ok nuther question, What if it HAD been a Bomb and no one said anything because they were afraid of Offending the little camel jockey?

After all this Time I dont expect any thing from Obammy except to quietly Leave when his time is up.

[olevetonahill]

After THIS Im not very concerned about Offending a Mooslum!

My outrage was all over facebook, in discussions with friends and family, and likely here. I said quite a bit about that bull****. I said it loud and clear. Want to know where my outrage was? It was on full public display.

Also, great job name calling a little 14 year old kid who has done absolutely nothing wrong beyond his love for science. The inside of my phone looks more like a bomb than that clock does. The kid shouldn't have to quell his intelligence or creativity due to the ignorance and outright stupidity of others.

I swear to God -- this country actively discourages creative and intelligent thought. Idiocracy truly is coming to fruition.

ya know for being so smart ya don't get it sometimes...but that's ok. Figured as much from you...that's why I put that in there, for you guys. The OP had to do with obama taking time to tweet THAT but I haven't seen any other tweets about the police as serenity said he has...at least it hasn't made the news.

He actually did much more than tweet about violence against police. He's talked about it in press conferences, he's issued statements in excess of 140 characters, he talked about it on Jimmy Fallon. The AG that you guys all hate and think causes it all actually called the killers thugs.

Don't disagree with a word you said but it still doesn't excuse Obama weighing in on this issue when he has remained silent on so many others. Obama is a racist.There is no possible way his actions can lead to any other conclusion.

“I had begun to see a new map of the world, one that was frightening in its simplicity, suffocating in its implications. We were always playing on the white man's court, Ray had told me, by the white man's rules. If the principal, or the coach, or a teacher, or Kurt, wanted to spit in your face, he could, because he had power and you didn't. If he decided not to, if he treated you like a man or came to your defense, it was because he knew that the words you spoke, the clothes you wore, the books you read, your ambitions and desires, were already his. Whatever he decided to do, it was his decision to make, not yours, and because of that fundamental power he held over you, because it preceded and would outlast his individual motives and inclinations, any distinction between good and bad whites held negligible meaning.”

I hate bing. I only use google. I also made an error. I meant to say "alta vista" instead of encarta. Snark is difficult.

I'll partly agree with you. I think it is perfectly understandable the teacher and school would be concerned and take action if the device was as described (a ticking clock in a briefcase with wires). And that should have nothing to do with the ethnicity of the student (Tim McVeigh ring a bell?). But it should not have gone any further than that and it certainly should not have gotten all the way to an arrest! Any moron could see it wasn't a threat with just a casual inspection. And I have no clue why the kid was suspended unless there is some explicit rule he broke that is made clear to every student. Common sense would say this device might be misconstrued, but this is a 14 yo kid who either a fetus or infant when 9/11 happened and 14 yo are not known for common sense. This should not have gone any further than a blurb in the local paper.

You forgot Kenyan, socialist, muslim.

I didn't vote in 2008 because I knew McCain was just an establishment Republican who was controlled by the same Wall Street corporatists and political neocons that controlled Bush. I didn't vote for Obama just because I didn't trust the Democratic party to ever stop their pandering or vote-buying schemes. I thought I would give Obama a chance to show his populist, pro-civil liberty, pro-middle class bonafides. I actually thought he could use his racial experiences to bridge the race differences in this country.

Boy was I wrong. He has been a divisive ideologue since day one. Race relations are the worst they've been since the Vietnam era. He is in the corporatists' back pocket every bit as much as George Bush was. He has put the Democatic Party's srtategy of pandering to special interest groups and getting people hooked on handouts on steroids and he has been a total disaster at foreign policy.

There is a reason the Democrats are the minority party in Congress and the State legislatures/governor houses now by the largest margins since Calvin Coolidge.. There is a reason Obama hasn't had a net positive favorable opinion about his job performance since his 2nd inauguration. I don't really care whether you blindly loyal supporters keep following him into Brigadoon because that only helps true conservatives in their fight against liberalism. But please, please don't try to blow smoke up everybody's *** by claiming Obama has been a uniter.

AGAIN...the point is the news in my part of the world, which I watch every morning...hasn't said jack about what obama has said about the killings...but they made sure they put this tweet up there. I shouldn't have to search...you'd think killing white cops is pretty important that obama and his crew would make sure it's pasted all over everything he's supporting police...

has obama ever tweeted about a Christian student standing up for their beliefs and being chastised/susepended by the public school? doubt it, but I'll let you google it.

I would bet a large amount of money that IF this student wasn't muslim...in other words a plain white kid...he wouldn't have said jack about it.
