And here's the spin. Shift the focus away from Alton Sterling being a convicted felon, a child molester, a felon in possession of a firearm, a person that did not comply with an officer's request, a person that tried to intimidate another person by brandishing his gun and a person that resisted arrest ... forget all of that ... and just remember he was the "victim."

quote:

The Trump administration has been a total failure since before he ever took office, but this is a new low. No one had regard for this family. This administration didn’t allow the man’s children to find out the details of this investigation properly.

quote:


Several community leaders and I went to visit with Sandra Sterling and watched as she wept and asked questions about why this was handled in this manner. While we were there, Governor John Bel Edwards called, Congressman Cedric Richmond called, but not a single person from the Trump administration, the people who actually have answers to give this family called. There are people in leadership who have shown their compassion, but our nation has disrespected this family with it’s handling of this sensitive information.



What part of "leaked" information do these people NOT understand? The DOJ is making their official announcement today. If the Sterling family wants to be upset, they should be upset with the Washington Post. The Post does not work for the DOJ and released this information on their own accord.

quote:

The manner this situation was handled by the DOJ is an insult to the Sterling family, an insult to people of Baton Rouge — and a disgrace to our nation. This is what justice looks like in Trumps America.

We have ALL predicted this would become their crying point.

Despite the fact that the Obama admin did the investigation. They just kicked the can down the road so Trump would look like the bad guy.

It was predictable as hell.

You are expecting people to use common sense which they do not have

Why in the frick would the president of the United States call this family?

Alton was an CONVICTED sex offender.

Alton was an CONVICTED criminal (multiple times over).

Alton was FIGHTING with the police.

Alton was an FELON in possession of a firearm.

Alton was FIGHTING with the police trying to reach his illegal firearm.

Why in the frick would the president give this family one single thought about Alton or his family? If Alton were white he still would be dead given the same circumstances.

It was Obama calling all of these people that has lead to this bullshite situation.

Compassion my arse.

I'm sorry your POS criminal son/nephew/grandson made a stupid fricking decision and ended up dead. But the DOJ's job is to determine whether his civil rights were violated. They were not. It's not the AG's job, or the President's, to console you because of his retarded life choice.
