Of all those young men, about how many did Obama comment that, if he had a son, his son would look a lot like that individual?

The comment was obviously intended to elicit sympathy for Trayvon Martin, at the expense of George Zimmerman, whom police had already determined to have been acting in self-defense.  Coincidentally, the incident occurred in the middle of the Presidential election cycle and Obama was quick to play the race card for his personal political gain.


There was also another incident, when a friend of his (who was black) was arrested and Obama spoke out immediately, stating the police (who were white) had acted "stupidly".

If that's enough to "stoke the race wars" then people are just waiting to be triggered.
