Should Obama cut his trip short in Poland and help our nation heal after Dallas?

I think Obama should cut his trip short and gather those who can prevent more Dallas Texas violence.

What makes you think there will be more TX violence? In answer to your question, depends if he has a golf outing.

Interesting question. Is this more important than the NATO summit?

What do you believe he can do by being physically on the ground to stop more violence?

No, things are bad enough already. Though I'm sure he could find a way to screw things up more than they are. Stay in Poland til January for all I care!!!

No reason he should...his evil minions, i.e. lynch, et.al. can handle things just fine...NOT. I do agree there may be a ripple effect, so we should all brace for whatever is about to come.

I would hope that President Obama tour the golf courses of the world until the end of his term in office. I cannot imagine any good that would come of his being here. And he can take Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson with him. Indeed, that might help the healing process...

The incident in Dallas had nothing to do with conflict between the Dallas PD and those participating in the demonstration. The organizers have been vocal in their approval of the way that the DPD handled themselves during the march and during the sniping incident. What we have here is a lone coo-coo bird whose actions have nothing to do with police relations in Dallas. As a matter of fact the DPD has been held up as an example of effective community policing and restraint.

This nations business shouldn't go on hold every time a mass shooting occurs. Let's not give the terrorists any more power than they already enjoy.

The last thing ANY of us need is to be "comforted" by a Presisdent of ANY stripe.
That's not their job.
The last thing I want to hear from this President is some false emotional drivel made to sound like compassion used as a political initiative to push his progressive agenda further down our throats.
TEXAS AND TEXANS TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL
We don't need or want any Feds nosing around where they don't belong.
That goes double for anyone connected to Obama.

As a Texan who lives in the DFW area, I respectfully ask that he stay in Poland, forever. We can handle it without his teleprompter tirades about gun control and bad cops.

NO! He is just as guilty for dividing this country in more ways then one! There are wonderful and bad law enforcement individuals...BUT they are not all 100% wrong 100% of the time. Folks must learn not to run, resist, mouth off to police just comply....if they are not guilty fine but if they are they need to be arrested.

No. He doesn't bring healing with him. He has been the road flare in a room full of gasoline. Too harsh?

He should, but he hasn't shown any attempt to do anything like that before. Every single crisis before he was on the golf course and no attempt was done on his part.

I seriously doubt him returning and using this as another talking point for gun control will do anyone any good.My time in the Marines taught me we were all green.Dark Green Light Green didn`t matter we were all Marine Corps Green.That was what mattered.This country has become more divided in the later part of my life than it has ever been.Someone that says things to heal the hurt and shore up our weak points is what we need now more than ever.Let him stay in Poland.

Obama cannot do a damn thing to stop the violence. He is actually doing the right thing. let the local PD check this out, run the investigation, and have the DOJ to support them. What would he do if he was there? He'd be in more briefings than anything else. Handle the world business, and let DPD handle theirs.

No, he committed himself to this trip and him running back here will accomplish squat. He's long past the point of being looked at as anything but a divider on the issue by if not most, then by a large minority of the nation.

Obama does not care about the USA and/or Capitolism. He should go to Iran.
