Fox News's "Fox and Friends" compiled a montage of President Obama stoking tensions between police and America's black community. 

The montage begins with Obama infamously condemning in 2009 Cambridge police who "acted stupidly" by asking Prof. Louis Gates for his ID. 

"We have seen too many instances of what appears to be police officers interacting with individuals, primarily African-American, often poor, in ways that raise troubling questions," Obama said in April 2015. 

"Last year, African-Americans were shot by police at more than twice the rate of whites," Obama said in Warsaw, Poland earlier this month. "African-Americans are arrested at more than twice the rate than whites. There's a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if, because of the color of their skin, they're not being treated the same."
