This is what you get when a community activist is elected president.

President of the United States Barry Obama, responding to last week’s horrific sniper attacks on Dallas, Texas police officers protecting a protest by “Black Lives Matter” activists, just couldn’t help returning to his community activist (aka "rabble rouser") roots.

Not that his implicit calls for stricter gun control laws is anything new. Hell, the sound of gunfire from a mass shooting has barely quieted and the gun smoke thinned before he starts beating that drum – every time. (“The President also made an implicit call for tighter gun restrictions, saying the carnage could have been mitigated if the killer or killers weren't carrying powerful weapons.”*)

And not that his condemnation of law enforcement is anything new. Hell, every time law enforcement shoots a black suspect or one dies in custody he’s instantly mouthing off about racist cops before he knows anything about the facts of the incident. (“After arriving in Poland in the early morning hours Friday, Obama went to his hotel and delivered a statement about two police-involved shootings this week, saying the episodes reflected persistent racial disparity.

“Citing statistics showing minorities are more likely to be pulled over, searched or shot at by police, Obama said it was incumbent on the country to aim for better -- including recognizing deep-seated biases that he said must be ‘rooted out.’

“…right now, the data shows that black folks are more vulnerable to these kinds of incidents. There is a particular burden that is being placed on a group of our fellow citizens."*)

That’s the kind of “leadership,” “crisis management” and “conflict resolution” you get when you elect a community activist President of the United States.
