(RightIsRight.co) – This week, as the United States mourns along with the families of the 19 kids and their two teachers slain by a psychotic teenage killer at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, Barack Obama decided this was the moment to call attention to the second anniversary of George Floyd’s death into the nation’s attention.
As one pundit noted, “It is as if Obama believes career criminal George Floyd is no different than the innocent little fourth-graders who were shot to death this week.”
In a tweet thread on Twitter [you can see the actual tweets further down this post], Obama wrote:
“As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.
“In the aftermath of his murder, a new generation of activists rose up to channel their anguish into organized action, launching a movement to raise awareness of systemic racism and the need for criminal justice and police reform.
“Inspired by these young leaders, @MBK_Alliance launched a Reimagining Policing Pledge for mayors and cities ready to take action. If you’re wondering how you can help make things a little better today, here are some ways to get involved.”
Obama then provided a link to his website obama.org.
