Racial tensions that have flared during the Obama presidency show no sign of abating; in fact, the Obama White House expects more colleges and universities to follow the University of Missouri in having “high-profile debate” about “unity and equality and justice,” as White House spokesman Josh Earnest put it on Monday.
At the regular White House news briefing, Earnest, a Missouri native, said he had not spoken to President Obama about a student protest that forced the university’s president and chancellor to step down earlier that day.
Earnest also did not know if Obama plans to issue a public statement on a situation where angry students, with help from the big-money football team, forced a change in the university’s leadership.
But Earnest did note that “this debate is not just occurring at the University of Missouri.”
there nothing but a bunch of paid anarchists from the black Negro lives matter Bolshevik movement. The president should have let them starve to death with there two bit phony not eating scam, and then shut the football team down and not allowed them to play.
I agree with letting the dumb ass starve, Heck I would have loved to sit down beside them and have a BIG HAM SANDWICH and a Beer. as for the foot ball team I guess it have to be a no play season for them by forting the season
absolutely the Football team players all should have been suspended and the head Coach fired for going along with the dumb ass black lives matter Obama movement.
