Professor Obama Lectures America on Race

President Obama lectured White Americans on their inherent racism and made excuses for his record of divisive rhetoric, which is partially responsible for the horrific events in Dallas, during a town hall event on Thursday night.

The event was titled “The President and The People: A National Conversation.” Hosted by Disney Media Networks and set to air simultaneously on ABC and ESPN, it perfectly epitomizes Obama’s arrogant self-satisfaction.

“If we’re honest about ourselves, because of the history of our country … blacks are perceived as dangerous.” — President Obama

Despite its format, Thursday’s publicity stunt was effectively a lecture and not a conversation. Obama seems pathologically incapable of not making national tragedies revolve around his agenda.

It’s fitting that the event was sponsored by a company known for creating children’s fiction, because Obama continued spinning his tale of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, Very Bad Racist White People.

Despite the obligatory words of deference to the work of law enforcement, Obama gave no sign he was prepared to abandon his explicit support of the false narrative which so disturbed Micah Xavier Johnson that it drove him to murder five police officers in Dallas.

Obama wasted little time before bringing up America’s alleged racist white people problem. “White folks have [assumptions about black people] — we all carry around assumptions about other people,” he said.

The president was adamant that the root cause of these assumptions — and ensuing poor relations between certain segments of the black community and law enforcement — is historic and endemic racism.

“There’s a greater presumption of danger [about black men] that arises from the social and cultural perceptions that have been fed to folks for a long time,” he later continued. Good old-fashioned American racism — once the preserve of cartoonish bad guys with southern accents, now fun for the whole American family.

“I expect any Black Lives Matter [supporter] to express sincere sorrow when a police officer is shot,” Obama said. But to expect such a thing whilst simultaneously endorsing Black Lives Matter’s view that many police are inherently racist is surely a doomed endeavor.

“If we’re honest about ourselves, because of the history of our country and because of the images we see … blacks are perceived as dangerous,” the president said. Obama would have the country believe blacks are perceived as dangerous by police because of American history — i.e. slavery and Jim Crow — and implicitly false “images.”

A person without an agenda, however, might think that perception among police officers is because of the fact that black men between the ages of 18-35, though barely 5 percent of the population, are responsible for roughly half of the violent crime in the country.

Though hardly eager to bring up crime stats, the president was at least willing to acknowledge that disproportionate police interaction with the black community does not occur in a vacuum.

“The murder in the African-American community is way out of whack compared to the general population,” Obama said. But of course his proposed solutions to this deep decay were tired liberal favorites — gun control, welfare, and effective show-trials of police officers involved in shootings.

Obama implicitly blamed the murder rate in the black community on the proliferation of guns, and his answer to gun culture was more government welfare spending. The country needs to have “the conversation about firearms” and “making these communities healthy again.” Single moms “don’t get the support [they] need,” he told an audience participant.

His solution for improving police-community relations was to mimic his activist Justice Department’s Ferguson investigation — “initiating investigations that people feel are transparent” and that involve “state prosecutors and investigators just treating these things seriously.”

Shockingly, though perhaps staying true to his administration’s historic “what difference does it make” attitude, Obama said that even if a police department does indeed submit to the demands of the mob, it should still expect — and apparently just put up with — continued violent unrest.

Even if police departments do everything the president says they should, it “doesn’t guarantee that there’s not going to be a flare-up in these communities,” he said. As long as the myth of inherently racist law enforcement is promoted by the highest levels of government — not to mention the media — another flare-up is inevitable.
