'Black Lives Matter' Activist Interrupts Clinton Event: "Apologize For Mass Incarceration... I Am Not A Super-Predator"
My guess is if this sort of thing provoked Klan counter-demonstrations at her campaign rallies Hillary would be a lot more upset, and Klan hecklers and demonstrators would be treated a lot more roughly by the security folks and the police.
But be that as it may, it occurred to me the other day while listening to someone whine about mass incarceration that long term imprisonment of criminals is paid for mostly by the wealthy and white and benefits mostly the poor and the black, the folks upon whom those same criminals predate.
This leaves aside the entirely other, entirely real, and entirely important issues of police violence and the failure of the system to sufficiently either punish the guilty or avoid punishing the innocent.
Police violence must end.
Frame-ups must end.
Official coercion of suspects, witnesses, and others by violence or other means including plea bargaining yields unreliable results and puts the innocent in peril.
These must end.
But mass incarceration is a blessing and a godsend for the populations who are the victims of the predators incarcerated, and the blessing is greater as the incarceration goes on longer.
I am old enough to remember white hunter movies.
Really, it is never time to allow a maneater back into the vicinity of the village upon which he has fed.
As to those who would not, given a safe and realistic alternative, return to crime, it is cheaper and best for all concerned to provide safe and realistic alternatives rather than prolong incarceration.
But some are dyed in the wool.
And for some there really can be no safe or realistic alternatives.
Prolonged incarceration of such people is a gift to the poor and black, paid for by the rich and white.
And this is black racist bullshit.
Black Lives Matter Activists Interrupt Hillary Clinton At Private Event In South Carolina
Actually, the whole BLM thing is black racist bullshit largely carried out by people who side with criminals and are trying to get black people in general, and white liberals, to do so as well.
Williams, who is from Charlotte, North Carolina, said she was motivated to protest because policies during President Bill Clinton's administration led to an increase in mass incarceration that mostly struck black communities.
She pointed to the three-strike federal laws, the elimination of rehabilitative programs and an emphasis on prison construction that were part of the Clinton legacy on crime.
Clinton has distanced herself from these policies and recently issued a detailed agenda on racial justice.
But Williams wants more.
“Hillary Clinton has a pattern of throwing the Black community under the bus when it serves her politically," Williams said in a statement before the event.
"She called our boys ‘super-predators’ in ’96, then she race-baited when running against Obama in ‘08, now she’s a lifelong civil rights activist.
I just want to know which Hillary is running for President, the one from ’96, ’08, or the new Hillary?”
