President Obama was in Chicago this afternoon to sell his executive actions on amnesty, but circumstances required that he at least address the rioting in Ferguson, Mo. He denounced the looting and property destruction, but was met with a relatively slow clap when he declared that “those are criminal acts” that should be prosecuted.
"There’s no excuse for it. Those are criminal acts," Obama says of protests that turned violent in #Ferguson

Yes. Not “troublemaking,” “knuckleheads,” or anything else CNN called it MT @Acosta: POTUS on Ferguson unrest: “Those are criminal acts.”

Mkay, so Obama stated "Those are criminal acts, people should be prosecuted for their criminal acts.." Hmmm… The irony.

THOSE ARE CRIMINAL ACTS BARRY? MIKE BROWN BEING MURDERED WASN'T?!

Fortunately, the narcissist-in-chief has a solution to the unrest underlying the Ferguson rioting, and naturally, it revolves around him personally.
