President Barack Obama chose a personal way
to join the debate over the death of Trayvon.
His
remarks had a powerful influence,
His
remarks drew new attentionto the way young black men are seen by society.
Being
targeted for violence--
it’s
the reality of being a black boyin America-- a problem since slavery.
It
is absolutely imperative
that
we investigate to figure out exactly,how this tragedy happened.
Obama
called for an investigation.
Obama
called for justice, impartiality, and integrity.
Obama
chosing his words, thinking,
digesting,
waiting, gathering information,to say it in just the right way.
His
words were healing for the nation.
Obama was asked for an opinion on the case. He sent his condolences to the family. He asked that the investigation continue. He gave no opinion on guilt or innocense. I'm so glad we have a president who chooses his words with care.

Are you kidding me??? Who wears a "hoodie" when it's over 80 degrees outside? The "hoodie" is worn for the THUG look. They work great for robbing stores or people for that matter. It's hard to get a good description of the person wearing a "hoodie."
ReplyDeleteSo if Obama had a son, he would look like a THUG? Really? Now we are finding out Travon attacked the guy first for following him. Obama should not comment until all of the facts are in.
asshole he was wearing a hoddie because it was raining, in america you can wear hoddie do 9 year old soccer players wear hoods when its raining
