We've been through this before. Law and Order was a Republican platform long before Clinton singed the legislation into law. It was an issue that was used to attack Democratic candidates as soft on crime by demonizing black people since atleast the 70s. (Willie Horton ads)
Unintended consequences of legislation meant to curb crime at a time of high crime rates does not mean Clinton and Dems were racially motivated.
But thats neither here nor there, what we do know for certain is that Republican politicians and several Republican Presidential Candidates, accepted thousands of dollars in campaign funds from from an openly racist group even after the RNC denounced the group.
And even after this shooting, Republican presidential candidates were refraining from calling this a racially motivated shooting out of fear of offending their racist voters. .
Even now, some hesitate calling for the removal of the Confederate Battle Flag from the Capitol grounds in order to pander to the "South Shall Rise Again" crowd.
Good luck casting your lot with that crowd.
