No, he did not say the guy was stupid, he said he made a stupid decision.

Again, not what he said. He said he didn't have all the facts to determine the stupid decision was racially motivated, but still felt it was a stupid decision, racially motivated or not.

I'm not pointing it out in regards to race or anything. Obama made a decision that the police acted stupidly without knowing everything about what happened.
