Hillary Clinton Calls for Overhaul of Justice System

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — In the church here where, 60 years ago, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. inspired residents to boycott the local bus network, Hillary Clinton on Tuesday called for overhauling the criminal justice system, saying there is something “profoundly wrong” when black men are disproportionately stopped and searched by the police, arrested or killed.

She made her remarks to pews packed with civil rights lawyers who descended on the Alabama capital to commemorate the day Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus to a white man, a moment that became pivotal in the fight for civil rights.

The two-day event was one of only a handful of times since Mrs. Clinton announced her candidacy in April that she addressed organizations that were unaffiliated with her campaign and had not endorsed her. She was joined by a lineup of lawyers, elected officials and ministers who have been central in civil rights struggles, past and present.

Back in the 70s a liberal cousin of mine and I were talking about the number of blacks in jail. I pointed out it was disproportionate. The liberal said “They’re the ones committing the crimes.” He still believes this but he’s still a liberal. See how crazy they are?

The Rosa Parks thing was executed by the Democrat Party, and Rosa was just an actor playing a part which was filmed for public consumption.

Fake, much like Hillary. No wonder she uses that as an example.

Regardless of color, we have too much crime at all levels due to going too easy on criminals. We really need criminal control.

She must be having HUGE PROBLEMS rounding up the black vote - particularly if she winds up running against Trump.

I agree. Any justice that lets this woman walk free is in dire need of an overhaul.

I can’t think of Rosa Parks without thinking about Claudette Colvin.

Lets see. Blacks killing Blacks is a serious problem. Cops stopping Blacks to check them out is a problem? You don’t see Whites killing Whites in anything like the numbers of Blacks killing Blacks, so who are you going to stop and roust the most?

I know this is very hard to grasp with a person having Hillary’s intellect, but the rest of us can figure it out.

This woman is a race baiting slime-dog.

She’s sell out her daughter if it would mean ten more votes.

Here she proves it.

To his credit, her husband signed much of that legislation into place.

Hillary, you idiot.

If black men do not want to be stopped, searched, arrested or killed by the police disproportionately to whites, all they need to do is to stop committing crimes disproportionately to whites.

That is all it would take. Simple.
