The recent rioting and unrest in Baltimore will cost the city an estimated $20 million, officials said Tuesday.
The expenses — which go before the city’s spending board for approval Wednesday — include overtime for police and firefighters, damage to city-owned property and repaying other jurisdictions for police and other assistance. Obama declared Baltimore a "disaster" area, which releases the federal funding. http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/05/26/first-baltimore-riot-bill-comes-due-20000000-baltimore-city-leadership-send-bill-to-fema-forces-all-americans-to-pay/comment-page-1/#comment-1442319 |

Does that mean he is taking responsibility for creating racial tension in the country?

Fuck him, fuck them, and fuck her.
Their city government invited it. The rest of the country should have a riot if that dump gets ten cents to fix the problem that they caused. |

Misleading title.
Should read, American citizens' tax dollars, not Obama. |

Will Texas and Oklahoma have to riot to get some Federal help? |
|
I'm so white, during the riots I made molotov cocktails out of single malt scotch.

I wonder how much of that $20,000,000 will wind up in the pockets of the local dims?

They should pay for it themselves or use their days unemployed cleaning and fixing up the place with their own hands.
Maybe they won't be so inclined to fuck shit up next time if they had some stake in it. Neighborhood ownership and all that. If they don't want to? Then the city goes the way of Detroit; crumbling ruins everybody abandons. |

Obama is half right on this one - his race baiting Presidency is probably the root cause of the riots. To bad we will pay for them rather than him and his friends at Acorn.

Don't tell me......they're going to garnish the wages of the six cops indicted for Freddie Gray's death?
|

Are you fucking kidding me?
Kind of takes the wind out your sails to go from "Look at those stupid fuckers ruin their own shit! LOL" to "Fuck, I have to pay for this?" |
|
Uh, no, Obama is not paying for a thing, we, the taxpayers are covering those animals riot cost.
Obama is just taking the credit. |

|
Who is going to pay for that may I ask?
Why aren't the people who destroyed the equipment paying for it? |
