Michelle Obama: I Fear for My Daughters Every Time They Get in a Car

Pam Key 7 May 2021

Former first lady Michelle Obama said on Friday’s broadcast of “CBS This Morning” that she worried as the mother of two Black daughters, Malia, 22, and Sasha, 19, “every time they get in a car by themselves.”

When former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of the murder of George Floyd, former President Barack and Michelle Obama said in a joint statement, “true justice is about much more than a single verdict in a single trial.”

When asked about her statement, Obama said, “The goal is to let leaders lead. But in certain times, people, you know, look to us often. ‘Well, what do you think? How do you feel?’ We know that while we’re all breathing a sigh of relief over the verdict, there’s still work to be done. And so we, we can’t sort of say, ‘Great. That happened. Let’s move on.’ I know that people in the Black community don’t feel that way because many of us still live in fear as we go to the grocery store, or walking our dogs, or allowing our children to get a license.”
Anchor Gayle King said, “Aren’t your girls driving?”

Obama said, “They’re driving, but every time they get in a car by themselves, I worry about what assumption is being made by somebody who doesn’t know everything about them. The fact that they are good students and polite girls, but maybe they’re playing their music a little loud, maybe somebody sees the back in their head and makes an assumption. I, like so many parents of black kids, have to — the innocent act of getting a license puts fear in our hearts.”

She added, “So, I think we have to talk about it more, and we have to ask our fellow citizens to listen a bit more and to believe us and to know we don’t wanna be out there marching. I mean, all those Black Lives Matters kids, they’d rather not have to worry about this. They’re taking to the streets because they have to. They’re trying to have people understand that we’re real folks, and the fear that many have of so many of us is irrational, and it’s based on a history that is just — it’s sad, and it’s dark, and it’s time for us to move beyond that.”

Why is it that black activists refuse to acknowledge the biggest threat to other Black people, especially to young black men, is other young black men?

Her daughters have more of a chance of getting struck by lightning than getting shot by a police officer in a traffic stop. Michelle Obama knows this. She wants to have her old Chicago street cred back because she feels guilty because  her and Obama moving into an upscale neighborhood when they had the chance. Far away from other Black people

Do her girls not have a SS protection detail?

There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. Booker T Washington

@Wingnut

If not they still have two cars full of armed guards going everywhere they go. One if front and one behind them.

And this  ain't counting the bodyguards the families of the zillionaires whose sons they date send along.

In addition to that,there is not a single cop in DC that would arrest either of them for any reason. They could set fire to an orphanage and not even get a parking ticket for parking in a no parking zone.

They're only 3/4 (b)lack and hence "white".

What a crock of crap.  Like anyone is going to even dare mess with one of Bammy's girls.  Not going to happen and she knows it.

People like Michelle Obama can't be so obtuse to not know that the most dangerous place for any black person to be is next to another black person.
But since, like her husband, MO is a scoundrel who can't admit that her demographic might have faults,
she must lie about why her precious sprogs might run into trouble.
By lying about who is far more likely to cause her harm, she is spreading distrust of the law among her demographic making many of them more likely to get themselves killed through stupid actions.
Telling black people the truth about themselves is not something liberal elites are likely to do in the near or distant future.

Not using recreational chemical before they drive will help a lot. Staying clear of BLM-controlled and influenced parts of cities would as well.

Does anybody believe that either Shoeshine or Malaria ever actual "drive?"  I'd bet some cash they don't even have licenses.

What do they need driver's licenses for,when no cop will ever be allowed to stop them and ask to see it? If any WERE to be so bold as to ask and then write them a ticket,he or she would find themselves unemployed,and maybe even unemployable as far as Law Enforcement jobs go.

Self-driving is for commoners, not those two.

[Smokin Joe]

Keep them off any street named after MLK or George Floyd, or with BLM in the name...

And get better drivers.

Duh.

[mountaineer]

Of course. Mooch's comment/ allegation is utter BS, and we all know it. The media still will breathlessly repeat her lies as absolute truth, though.

I guess she feels walking is safer   

 

[Slide Rule]

Michelle is last decade news.

She is lost and I say that is a blessing.

Perhaps Michelle could knock off the sauce.

[Sighlass]

Good grief, you can't even get within 2 blocks of their house without going through 4 security checkpoints. The Obamas are as far removed from the threat of violence as they can possibly be.

Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein...how many more democrats like Bill Clinton are out there?

She's the co-puppeteer, isn't she?  Along with her gay husband, they both have their hands up Biden's butt, telling him what to say and do.

[catfish1957]

Mooch can't stand it when she can't get into the news cycle at least once weekly.  No matter how ridiculous the opinion.

[Wingnut]

A homeless out of work street bum and an Obama daughter look a lot alike.

Yeah, but she's contractually obligated to stir racial unrest and her PR team decided to go with the "as a mom" angle this week.

Just in time for Mother's Day...


Sheesh.
