Twenty four hours after Baltimore began burning due to riot activities related to the police killing of 25-year-old Freddie Gray, the President was asked about the incident today in a joint press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Mr. Obama stressed that the problems of blacks and minorities being killed by police is not just a police problem or a community problem, but a problem the nation must face and correct.
“I think we as a country have to do some soul searching,” the President said. “This is not new. It’s been going on for decades.”
