Speaking Friday at a historically black university, potential Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren delivered what she called “the hard truth about our criminal justice system: It’s racist … I mean front to back.”
The Massachusetts senator identified some of the system’s failures: disproportionate arrests of African-Americans for petty drug possession; an overloaded public defender system; and state laws that keep convicted felons from voting even after their sentences are complete.

The angry biytch is at it again.
What part of “black university” is not racist?
>>> Netroots Nation, an annual conference for progressives <<<
I wonder what the average IQ is among the attendees.
“PDJT is going to look like a “moderate,” compared to the rabid-dog moonbattery that’s coming.“
This time next year is going to be very interesting.
