Someone make me a meme about Obama saying something about the Zimmerman verdict, but saying nothing when Chris Kyle gets killed.

WASHINGTON — President Obama called on Americans to observe “calm reflection” after a Florida jury found George Zimmerman not guilty in the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
The White House has rarely commented on the George Zimmerman trial even as it captured national attention. On Saturday, the jury reached its decision, clearing Zimmerman of second-degree murder and manslaughter.
“I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken,” Obama said, in a written statement released by the White House press office. “I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son.”

Nice thing to say, but who the fuck is he to comment on this case? He is no one. Hundreds of people get killed, murdered and fucked up that are much much worse and evil than this simple case of a moron shooting another moron.

I don't disagree, but as the President, I guess it is his job to make a statement telling people not to do stupid shit when a bunch of people threaten to do stupid shit.

I know but there wouldnt be this situation if he kept his Kenyan mouth shut in the first place.

But to never utter a single word when Chris Kyle gets "killed" "murdered" who knows, fuck that.

"Calm reflection".

You can bet his aides spent a few hundred man hours coming up with that gem of a statement.

Basically, it's how best to say:

I don't like it but please don't go and hurt anyone because I don't want to look bad.
 
Are we reading something different here?

All I take from that statement is "both sides, stfu, don't go on some massive riot to try and get the verdict changed, and don't start a celebration party outside Trayvon Martin's parents' house either"
