Nearly three weeks after an unarmed black teen was gunned down in a St. Louis suburb by a white police officer, sparking violent riots and a national conversation about race, Hillary Clinton finally broke her silence about the ongoing tension in Ferguson, Mo.
"Watching the recent funeral for Michael Brown, as a mother, as a human being, my heart just broke for his family because losing a child is every parent's greatest fear and an unimaginable loss, the former Secretary of State said Thursday at a technology conference in San Francisco.
"Behind the dramatic, terrible pictures on television, there are deep challenges that will be with them and with us long after the cameras move on," Clinton added. "This is what happens when the bonds of trust and respect that hold any community together fray.(continued)

A little late to the party. At this point, what difference does it make?

Can’t wait to see the black response to Hillary’s long delay.
And she expects them to show up for her on voting day? Man is she gonna be disappointed.

Imagine her reaction if Guam “capsized” into the ocean.

I seriously wonder if she had that same sympathy for the mothers and families of the Benghazi butchery that she caused?

Except it probably saved the lives of 10 HUMAN beings BESIDES a cop with a family.
Tough to weigh things sometimes.
Do I feel bad for the parents. I'm not sure. Do they feel bad for the cop? It sure wasn't his intention to have to shoot a kid when he left for work that day.

It took how many days (daze?) for the smartest-woman-in-the-world to comment? What a obese, dried-up intellectual hag.

"Watching the recent funeral for Michael Brown, as a mother, as a human being, my heart just broke for his family because losing a child is every parent's greatest fear and an unimaginable loss, LOL. Tin-ear Hillary! lives up to expectations with a late and banal response. She probably had 5 focus groups vet it first.

Hillary Rodham Clinton. All politics, all the time.
Since when does this murderous bitch care about being human?
There is nothing that ties this biological entity to other human beings other than a physical shell and some biology. As for resemblance to humanity residing within her collection of cells, not a chance.

And what about the white cop Hillary. You think he really wanted that kid dead? Sure not how he thought his day would go.
