MUST WATCH: Bill Clinton SHUTS DOWN Black Lives Matter Protesters defends "SuperPredators"

31. As some have pointed out here, the crimes you describe should have been prevented.

I was working for a non-profit in a very depressed area of Los Angeles in part of that time, so I know what you are talking about. But the closing down of the War on Poverty that occurred prior to the Clinton administration had a lot to do with the crime increase under Reagan and the first Bush as well as under Clinton.

It's very complicated. I totally sympathize with your statement. But just allowing police officers to treat so many young people like criminals simply because of the color of their skin is not the answer. It will not bring back the victims of crime. We need a justice system that treats people with dignity.

And above all, we need a rehabilitative prison system especially in our juvenile halls.

Thanks for your reply. It is much more difficult than we can express on the internet.
