That took guts. FBI Director, James Comey, let Obama have it right between the eyes last Friday in a speech at the University of Chicago Law School. And deservedly so. At the end of this month, Obama is poised to release thousands of inmates who were convicted of drug crimes in an effort to empty some of the prisons and set the stage for giving felons the right to vote. Of course, most will vote for the Marxists who set them free. That’s the point here. That and to create havoc and chaos in our streets. Crime is spiraling out of control in our cities thanks to progressive policies. This move by Obama will make it much, much worse. That’s hard to comprehend when you look at cities such as Chicago. But it will … these cities are becoming killing fields with mega-crime overlords thanks to Obama’s mafia-style politics.

From Conservative Tribune:

In a shocking speech Friday at the University of Chicago Law School, FBI Director James Comey hit back at President Barack Obama’s early release of drug traffickers and the Black Lives Matter movement.

The speech, which was posted on the FBI’s website, detailed Comey’s experience tackling the drug trade in 1990s Richmond, Virginia, and how supposed inequalities in policing are more to do with the neighborhoods where drug crime happens than police racism.

“Here in Chicago, just last month, more than 50 people were shot in just one weekend,” Comey told the audience.

Comey made clear who suffered most from this violence.

When I worked as a prosecutor in Richmond, Virginia, in the 1990s, that city, like so much of America, was experiencing horrific levels of violent crime,” Comey said.

But to describe it that way obscures an important truth: For the most part, white people weren’t dying; black people were dying … if you were black and poor, it didn’t matter whether you were a player in the drug trade or not, because violent crime dominated your life, your neighborhood, your world.

Comey then took an oblique shot at Obama’s new drug sentencing initiatives that will release thousands of “non-violent” drug offenders beginning Oct. 30.

The notion of a ‘non-violent’ drug gang member would have elicited a tired laugh from a resident of Richmond’s worst neighborhoods,” Comey said. “Because the entire trade was a plague of violence that strangled Richmond’s black neighborhoods. The lookouts, runners, mill-workers, enforcers and dealers were all cut from the same suffocating cloth.

Comey then took his biggest swipe, at the expense of Black Lives Matter protesters.

As we did that work, I remember being asked why we were doing so much prosecuting in black neighborhoods and locking up so many black men. After all, Richmond was surrounded by areas with largely white population,” Comey said.

My answer was simple: We are there in those neighborhoods because that’s where people are dying. These are the guys we lock up because they are the predators choking off the life of a community,” he explained. “We did this work because we believed that all lives matter, especially the most vulnerable.

Ouch. In just one speech, Comey obliterated much of the mythos upon which the president’s ill-considered crime policies are based.
