http://www.salon.com/2016/02/25/im_not_a_superpredator_hillary_black_lives_matter_protestors_crash_clinton_south_carolina_fundraiser/Im not a Superpredator, Hillary Clinton, the young Black Lives Matter activist said Wednesday night, holding a sign that read: We have to bring them to heel Hillary Clinton. The quote is from a January 25, 1996, speech by Clinton during which she promoted the concept of community policing in order to combat the growth of so-called Superpredators.
They are not just gangs of kids anymore, Clinton said in Keene, New Hampshire. They are often the kinds of kids that are called super-predators. No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel

Thanx for the material. Can I quote you on "Goldwater Girl"? hahahaha

(14,195 posts)At issue was a quotation from Clinton in 1996, at the height of anxiety during her husband's administration about high rates of crime and violence. During his presidency, Bill Clinton shepherded a sweeping crime bill through Congress that was heralded at the time but has since been widely criticized for increasing incarceration rates and sentence durations, notably among black inmates.
"They are often the kinds of kids that are called 'super-predators,' " Hillary Clinton said then. "No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel."
