MONTGOMERY, Ala. â 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 âprofoundly wrongâ 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.
[Snip]
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.

The fact that she hasn’t been arrested and charged yet is proof of her point.
The DoJ needs to be overhauled. Or keel hauled.
I don't know who I deplore more...her, Obama, or hubby, Bill. All liars and users.
A black guy that I work with - upper management, very smart, mid-50s - complained that he was getting stopped often by the cops, just because he was black. I asked him how many of the cops that he encountered had been black. He said "Around half."
Then I asked if he still had the original factory wheels for his SUV (Cadillac Escalade). He said he did. I recommended that he put those back on and sell the 22" ghetto pimp-daddy custom wheels that he had installed. He thought it was a silly idea, but I kept telling him that the cops saw those wheels and immediately thought "drug dealer". Finally he tried my suggestion and *presto*, no more police attention.
The cops were profiling him based on his ride, not his hide.
What? The one the Democrats created?
Crime statistics don't reflect that.
Any “justice system” that allows this POS to remain outside of prison, needs to be reformed.
yea and if she gets in and appoints more whiny libs in the SC, we are deeper screwed in cavities newly drilled..lol
and once upon a time there was a country named America....
Now we are sooo much better with uncle Bill’s and Hitlery’s pervert a go go white house...
Bill not only sells the lincoln room out, he comes with it..aww nooo...my mind’s eyes>>>
‘Hillary Clinton Calls for Overhaul of Justice System’
Hahahahahaaaa....
You just can’t make this stuff up.
I totally agree with her. It’s time to overhaul it when a career criminal and her criminal husband are still wandering the streets.
be careful what you wish for. The overhaul might just bring about true justice and where would you be?
She actually means the justice system that may nail her hide to the wall.
It is ironic considering what she is being investigated for.
This is also another example of her campaign plan - go to the democratic base and go full on panderbear. I will go out on a limb and predict that she will double or triple her trillion dollar promises by the time the election is held.
I think her strategists realize she has almost no margin to pick up new voters and she does not appeal to the independents so her best strategy to win is target the usual democrat voters and make sure they get to the polls. This will be an ugly campaign.
I don’t know who I deplore more...her, Obama, or hubby, Bill. All liars and users.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are the penicillin-resistant syphilis of our political system.
Despite their inane "Black Lives Matter" crusade, life is cheap to them --- unless it's their own.
We need to keep a conservative push alive to insure she doesn't find some way to sleaze in...
Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader
PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
