We all know he divided this country very badly.
What are some of the ways he really divided this country? What are some of the ways he really made people hate the other races?
Answer seriously. Kinda back up your explination too.

I was never a racist and I truly didn't "see in color". After being called a racist to suit Obama's whims and so he could fire up his base, I'm not sure anymore.

Not a single new federal gun law on his watch. I will give him credit for that and if you believe he really tried, you are too dumb to argue with.

Oh so many ways.

1) Making the racial divide greater than it has been since the 1960s...perhaps the worst ever. Multiple reasons but here's a quick rundown:

1a) "The police acted stupidly". This was when the cops in CT arrested a black man for what was reported to be a breaking and entering situation. The black man did in fact live in that house but he appeared to multiple neighbors to be trying to break in. The police apologized but Obama was very quick to side with the black guy even before all the facts came out.

1b) "If I had a son...he would look like Trayvon." This above all else I think caused the great racial divide/Black Lives Matter BS we're still living with today. Let's get something out of the way first. George Zimmerman was a cop-wannabe that went too far in trying to "police" his neighborhood. Having said that, Trayvon was anything but innocent and not the cute little black boy that the media always presented himself as. He was a gangster who sold drugs and possibly illegal guns. He also damn near beat George Zimmerman within an inch of his life. Zimmerman, acted foolishly in following him, but was justified in shooting him in self-defense. Only in Obama's American can a Hispanic man be accused of representing the whole white race and be charged with racism for killing a black thug.

1c) "Hands up Don't Shoot." & Ferguson. Even more so than Trayvon, Michael Brown was a criminal who robbed store, assaulted the store clerk and charged a police officer trying to apprehend him even when presented with multiple opportunities to surrender. Did Obama try to calm fears and let the facts be known. Hell NO! He helped feed the narrative of whitey being racist and police officers getting hard-ons for killing black people. An entire American city burned because Obama CHOSE to do nothing about it. As a black man he could have stood up and called this incident for what it was and perhaps gotten the black community there and nationally to recognize that this was a justified police shooting. Instead it led to riots all over the country...Ferguson, Baltimore, etc. because low-class blacks realized they could yell racism and be able to get away with rioting, looting, and torching their own communities (yeah, that'll teach whitey).

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few but those are the big elements that led to him creating a greater racial divide than this country has every seen, at least in my lifetime.

2) Obamacare. Oh boy this is going to be good so listen up. It started with what sounded like a good idea. Let's help the less fortunate by giving them free healthcare. The problem is there's no free lunch. Someone is going to pay for it. Marshaling all the parties he could he got it passed with howls from Republicans and Conservatives who saw it not for the abomination it was but as a great excuse to rile up their base to donate to the RNC. And ever since, the Repubs in Congress have been passing resolutions to repeal which Obama vetoed (yeah...no shit Sherlock...like was going to sign away his signature legislation). Goes to SCOTUS where were so sold out by so-called "conservative" justices who said the penalties weren't really a penalty...it was a tax and the Feds can levy taxes all day long. So much for my taxes not going up. Thanks Obama! Meanwhile he created an apparatus of government so overreaching and so bloated it'll probably never be dismantled. Trump was right, it's doomed for failure because it's so bloated but no one in the GOP has any idea on what to do differently (not that they really care) so it stays until it collapses and we get a true Single Payer System, eg. socialized medicine. If you think that's fine and dandy check out the wait times to see specialists in Canada and Great Britain. My great-grandmother (a Canadian citizen) went blind waiting to see a specialist because of Canada's health care system. Forget that. Check out the VA. How many veterans on this board like dealing with the VA? I bet very few. Or how about Medicare? My elderly father with a terminal illness is on Medicare and it don't do JACK. SHIT! So yeah, FUCK socialized medicine and it's ability to catalog and force you doctor to provide personal info on you because we all know that the government is benevolent and won't use personal info against you (such as taking your guns).

3) The killing of US citizens. Obama had no problem using Predator Drones to vape US citizens overseas fighting for terrorist organizations. Part of me doesn't care because they relinquished their rights when they turned treasonous. But when Rand Paul stood up in the Senate and asked would he do such a thing on US soil do you think they would get an enthusiastic Hell NO from the administration? Nope. Crickets and short press release later. Sorry folks, but this basically means if you're an enemy of the state .gov can send a hellfire into your house.

Help me out folks. I'm sure there's a hell of a lot more I'm missing.

I feel he did thre things really well.

He rallied the blacks against the whites by pointing out every cops shooting as racially motivated. He did this very successfully. He protect d those that caused issues. Notice no BLM protests since Trumps been in office.

He made people mainly intercity folks hate, attacks, distrust, and kill cops. He did this by claiming everything they did was racially motivated. This made the murder rate rise because cops said f this I'm not getting fired over giving this black guy a ticket. Now minorities get away with crime and traffic infractions. This caused the murder rate to rise and leads Timmy cries for gun control. This has since turned back closer to where it was. Trump loves the cops and military. Obama also included military service men and women in this and liberals disrespect them as well.

He also made women hate men and were still seeing the fall out form this. I'm not exactly sure how he did this. I think it was more Hilary loosing and Trump winning, but I'm sure obama started it.

You're forgetting the Harvard Constitutional Scholar bastardizing the very document he swore to protect!

He signed the 2012 NDAA giving the Executive branch of our Gov't sweeping powers, including the ability to use the military to seize and hold indefinitely even American Citizens on U.S. soil without process, notification, or rebuttal, if they were deemed to be supporting terrorist or deemed a threat to the security of the U.S.

He also unprecedentedly utilized the Executive privilege to write an abundant number of Orders to effectuate his policies bypassing the Legislative branch of Gov't!

He commuted an unprecedented number of "Convicted" felons sentences, with many "Life Terms" included primarily explaining he did so because he felt the scales of justice lacked diversity in our justice system, ie, there were a disproportionate number of felons of a particular demographic in our prisons.

He stood by and did nothing, said nothing while Furgeson burned, LE was being targeted and gave weight to the BLM validity by doing so.

He stood on warm dead bodies using them as pulpits for his anti-gun agenda!

He used the U.S. military theatres in the Mid-East as his political billboard, placating to the World at the expense of abandoning his own military advisors who knew how to disengaged appropriately without exposing American lives of hard fought for gains. He did this as he quoted, for his "legacy. Won a Noble for it too.

He bowed to foreign Kings!

He and the loser of the recent Presidential race, Clinton, abandoned the "Arab Spring" uprising which coincidentally has destabilized the entire region and caused an untold number of deaths and heightened Anti-U.S. sentiment.

He coddled and encouraged criminal migratory lunacy by announcing the"Dream" act... U.S. border agents were overwhelmed and unable to keep up with the flood of immigrants crashing the border following the ridiculous political manifest!

As noted, he directed to IRS to act as his personal political retribution mechanism...

He had his wonderful FBI name "White Supremist" as the #1 domestic terror threat, ignoring ten's of thousands of gang members flourishing in our cities and suburbia! He then used the BLM to effectuate an illegal action against ranchers.

He embraced the counter-culture and alternative lifestyle progressive movement.

There's so much more... My thumbs are tired!

So, what divided us? Isn't hard to figure out!

All these items noted, have the combined effect to isolate segments of our society by crystallizing their cause against apparent confrontation or opposition to their ideals. Laws of nature dictate for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction! So for 8 years of bending one way, you now see society reacting in an opposite direction! He wasn't and isn't a stupid man, but he did all this by design and with intent! The current state of affairs in the country and history will judge, are, and will be, largely attributed to his ruinous policies and the debacle of absent leadship he possessed!

As our first elected Islamic terrorist president, summer of 2016, June 22 or 23 if I remember correctly, it was reported in Cal Thomas's political editorial column that Obama ordered the FBI NOT TO INVESTIGATE any leads or incidents or crimes involving Muslims. Now look up the definition of treason, and tell me why this bastard has not been hanged yet!

And when the infection took root, it permeated hearts and minds... Read this bullshit!

Opinion | The quiet resegregation of America constitutes a national crisis

Makes me want to puke! For every instance this article brings up, without cooperating support at to the root cause, it pretty much steers the reader to predisposed conclusions. I love the 18% access to teaching hospitals (matches populace percentage) and derides the fact other hospitals account for 30%+ without noting the areas or cities it is compiled from. And more... Want to know what divides people, the division imagined and then regurgitated! Guess the article dismisses the fact in a place like NYC, the minority isn't the minority but the majority, and also encompasses the majority of municipal hiring thereby creating reverse discrimination based solely upon race and not qualification for the position...

This is a direct result of Obamaism! IMO... Lol

Anyways...

Geometric center of a hostile state.
And I love the takeaway statements like:

“The current state of the American city is the direct result of unconstitutional, state-sanctioned racial discrimination.”

They forgot to add the crucial explanatory statement:

Fostered, promoted, and enforced by the Democrat party and it's idiotic leftist policies, since their Jim Crow policies and KKK policies didn't go over so well.

Click to expand...

Okay, first off, you keep repeating the same thing each and every time your hero, Obummer gets brought up. As far as the topic of this thread, Obummer and guns was not part of the question.

Second, it is not like he did not try. He attempted new gun laws on a regular basis. I believe he signed 23 executive orders in regards to guns and the ownership of them. He was a great motivator of his base to fight against the 2A. He is one of the reasons we are fighting so hard today. During his time in office, many, I mean many, States issued new and drastic gun laws. And yes, I give Obummer much of that credit. He reached out to many local and state politicians and encouraged them to vote as often as possible for anti-gun laws.


As for the OP, Obummer was a great speaker. He had great speech writers. He spoke as often as he could to encourage more hate and divide in these (once) United States. He played the race card as often as he could. He played politics the same way. He poised American against American every opportunity that he could. Obummer care was a great divide. He positioned the haves against the have-nots. He used the new health care law to take more away from hard working Americans and gave to the poorest Americans. Yep, that is Race relations.

He used the shootings of pieces of shit thugs to advance his own little race war. He assisted in driving a larger wedge between the Police and the community's. Remember, "If I had a son, he would look like Trevor" speech. He sent people from his administration to the funeral of the "Gentle Giant". (He was a piece of crap.) He pushed the lie of "Hands up; don't shoot". In his own special way, he greatly assisted in the creation of Black Lives Matter garbage.


In saying ALL of that, the United States has been creeping away from unity for many years; even years prior to the Crap Presidency of Obummer.

We are destined to destroy ourselves due too so many differences among us.

Oh, I believe the start of his hate of white and love of color showed up early on, remember the case of the Voter intimidation?

It began when his Justice Department dropped an open-and-shut voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party. It was essentially a declaration that his administration would use the Voting Rights Act to protect only certain races.

GOPerfect,
I call it as I see it, not as NRA or GOP spin it. I am not a GOP loyalist and Obama is not my hero. We will have democrats in office, like it or not, and if we don't give them credit for not being gun grabbers, we are helping both political parties to screw us. If you can't figure that out, you have to think harder.
I can understand by being LEO, you have legitimate reasons to hate Obama. I don't dispute those reasons, but I am pro-gun advocate first.
