Cruz blames Obama for climate of violence against police
I don't know that I'd go as far as blaming Obama more than I blame the individuals who commit these atrocities. The problem with America is that there is a strong desire to put the blame on everyone but the person who committed the crime. Charles Manson was Reagan's fault. Dahmer was Nixon's fault. 911 was Bush's fault. No one will ever be held accountable for their actions in America because the blame will always be placed somewhere else. Ultimately it's a good time for killing in America because the blame will be placed on someone other than the person who commits the crime.
Another Republican making up his own fairy tale story,,,I'm surprised his nose doesn't grow longer as he speaks..!
So according to Ted Cruzes methadology and from those who support his sentiments... Then you would agree that we can hold President Bush and Reagan to the same standard and vilify them too. For more officers were shot during their presidencies than under Obama. Not too hard to just research this people istead of mindlessly following this hatred crap. Oh and he president personally called the officers wife and expressed his deepest sympathies. Please post a time when an officer was killed when reagan or bush did this. Also these numbers don't come from a "liberal" web site but from the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund. Kind of hypocritical to say how the President is deciding the country when such an biased blanketed statement is throw out there like that just to fire up your base. So if Obama is causing this racial devide then why are white Supremist groups backing only republican presidential hopefuls especially Trump????
Cruz is an idiot. There have been less 'cops killed' in the line of duty so far this year. Does he mean that Obama should get credit for the reduction thus far into the year?
Listen to all these libs, don't have the balls to call it like it is. Party affiliation dictates conclusion. Right or wrong...f-ing cowards..
Nice language. Shows a ton of intelligence. Here I'll call it this. Let's blame the president and fire up our base with fear and anger because it works and let's not base it on actual numbers or facts because we don't have too. If we just keep saying it enough our base will believe it... Remember weapons of mass distraction, or hey let the banks run their business they know better than the government does.. So educate yourself with actual numbers. Then get back to me okay.. :) and then maybe you will say to yourself wait no.. Cop killings were much higher under Bush and Raegan. I don't believe it. Must be the liberal media!
Oh, right. The candidate of the party that continuously stresses how everyone is responsible for their own actions and that your upbringing is no excuse for bad behavior is claiming that Obama is to blame for people shooting the police? Wow what happened to personal responsibility for your actions. "No, it's not my fault. Obama made me do it." How pathetic Raphael Cruz is.
Yes, big Dumbo ears racist Ostupid, Sharpton, Jesse, Holder and company all have cops' blood on their hands.
Aoversier---Yes, Obama is dangerous to America and all people who are not black. But please do not make the mistake of calling him an idiot, or stupid. He is very smart, as the saying goes, he is as smart as a fox. Lets not buy into his" idiot" routine as he wants us to. He still has 16 months to do more damage to America and the Constitution. Let's keep our eyes and ears open. FYI-One thing that leaked out was his plan to integrate neighborhoods? I only heard that once and I can not see how that will happen, but?
Every time I read the comments of AOL News posters all I can think of is how negative this bunch is. They nay say, distrust, create fear and loathing, spread totally wrong rumors and lies and above all they plain oild misinform people. We have talated 7 almost 8 years of republican's denigrating the president and generally making people unhappy. BTW Cruz is a commie plant, there you go we can make things up too.
And the republican party did what to help this? And he will do what if he gets elected?
And, what did the republican controlled congress come up with to help make things better? Oh, how stupid of me - they have done nothing meaningful for the country in the last 7 years - why would they change now? The republican gestapo is too busy trying to discredit people. Oh, what is his opinion on that republican county clerk, in Kentucky, using her office to enforce her religious beliefs? Oh, that's right - it is obamas fault as well (he does't exactly know why, but something will come to him soon).
So you didn't know the Kentucky county clerk is a Democrat, huh?
Boy, embarrassing.....
Why would that be embarrassing ? See, Democrats are ADULTS, and don't imagine, let alone pretend , that no one on " their side " couldn't be some sort of wack-job.
And speaking of embarrassing---here you have a woman who is clearly, seriously religious---to a fault--and you claim she is a Democrat---but THAT would completely fly in the face of the standard Conservative mantra that Democrats are " athiests, not Christians, and hate the baby Jesus ". LOL
Try again.
