Bill Clinton has heated exchange with protesters at rally for Hillary [Bubba vs BLM]
Chicago Tribune ^ | 4/7/16

Posted on 04/08/2016 2:51:02 AM PDT by markomalley

Former President Bill Clinton engaged in a heated exchange on Thursday with protesters upset about welfare reform and gun violence laws passed when he was in office 20 years ago.

Addressing supporters at a Hillary Clinton presidential rally in Philadelphia, Bill Clinton was interrupted by people in the crowd holding signs reading "Clinton crime bill destroyed our communities" and "Welfare reform increased poverty."

As first lady, Hillary Clinton said in a 1996 speech about the crime bill, "They are often the kinds of kids that are called super-predators." Some blacks have found the term "super-predators" offensive and have tried to hold her accountable during her presidential campaign. She was interrupted at a rally in Charleston, South Carolina, in February by an activist who wanted her to apologize for her remarks.

Critics of the 1994 anti-crime bill have tied it to mass incarceration disproportionately affecting blacks. Bill Clinton said he talked at the time to black groups, which endorsed the legislation, and he said the bill led to a decrease in crime and murders due to gun violence.

FACT 1. Despite making up just 13% of the population, blacks committed half of homicides in the United States for nearly 30 years.

FACT 2. Chicago’s death toll is almost equal to that of both wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, combined.

FACT 3. Black People (mostly men) commit a grossly disproportionate amount of crime.

Nah, it’s more than that.

Bill is pissed that Obama is holding the sword of Damocles over Hillary’s head and forcing her to take certain positions. I would not be surprised that Obama has claimed Hillary’s VP pick or else.

Bill has always been astute, Hillary only a warped sense of ideology.

This confirms what we’ve all known. Obama has not been good for American. Now we have a popular ex democratic President saying it and it’s going to hurt. I’m sure Bill is daring Obama to indict Hillary. I think they have a mutually assured destruction leverage.

Bill’s original political mentor was Governor Orval Faubus. Then he got under the wing of Senator J. William Fulbright. Both of whom were old time Dixiecrats who just loved Black people.

I guess the Chicago Tribune can’t even finish her quote (...”they must be brought to heel”).

BJ Clinton is simply repeating what he did (very effectively) in the 1990s; playing both sides of the fence. Pander to unassimilated blacks on the one hand, while convincing whites he was a good ole boy on the other...

You two are probably right! I heard his comments over the radio and he sounded SO sincere that he had me fooled for a minute. Being a biology instructor, I should know that a leopard never changes his spots!

Thanks; sadly, after watching Obama win a second term despite his very obvious failures visible to all, I wouldn’t be surprised if it worked.

BJ Clinton is still very popular with the old divorced white women with whom I work; they probably envision themselves dating him someday...
