Obama says Trump should visit to new African-American museum
Nearly all of the attendees of this event were white. She pointed to the Oklahoma and North Carolina shootings at the start of her remarks, saying they added two more names “to a long list of African-Americans killed by police officers”.
Reid played a clip of Trump saying at the town hall, “Well, one of the things I’d do, Ricardo, is, I would do stop-and-frisk”.
“He has to just not be an idiot”, said Ed Rogers, a GOP consultant who’s admittedly no Trump fan. He said, “If they see a person possibly with a gun or they think may have a gun, they will see the person and they’ll look and they’ll take the gun away”. But a 2014 New York Civil Liberties Union report found that as the number of stops increased dramatically from 2002 to 2011 during Michael Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor, the number of guns recovered, shooting victims and murders only “changed modestly”.
“Every day, I see people of different backgrounds working together for a common good, and we need to bring that spirit to every part of our country – and become one American nation, united by our shared values and principles as American citizens”. The comedian asked her what Trump might wear. They discussed “steps we must take to ensure that everyone is respected by the law, and everyone has respect for the law”, the aide added. That is tragic. But between 1882 and 1931, there were 3,318 black people lynched.
Donald Trump really, really wants his predominantly white fanbase to know how much he cares about vanquishing black-on-black crime in America-by implementing a draconian policy that is as ineffective as it is reviled by black communities. “I was referring to Chicago with stop and frisk”. Stop-and-frisk, in which police stop, question and search pedestrians for weapons or contraband, has drawn protests and successful legal challenges because it is seen as unfairly targeting minorities. “The overwhelming majority of people who have been concerned about police community relations doing it the right way”. Yet, he is embracing an approach to policing that has been proven to be a losing proposition.
Mike Gaudiuso, called stop-and-frisk “a double-edged sword”.
In 2013, U.S. District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin ruled that New York’s stop and frisk policy was unconstitutional because it of its “indirect racial profiling” of blacks and Latinos.
African American lawmakers and organizations argued that expanding the use of stop and frisk anywhere would only heighten simmering tensions between law enforcement and minority communities.
Trump’s speech was also relatively heavy on policy proposals, with mention of education reform, energy production, ending trade deals he deems unfair, and more general regulatory reform.
Trump’s goals are two-fold.
Verniere’s distrust of the “establishment” and it’s support of less stringent immigration standards than those proposed by Trump is what led him to ultimately decide to vote the Republican nominee.
Clinton spoke with Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts and Democratic North Carolina Rep. Alma Adams, whose district includes Charlotte, about the shooting and protests today, a Clinton aide said.
Trump’s promise to expand a mechanism that enables police harassment and the unfair targeting of black people is further proof of his fascist bonafides and strongman persona.
Like those sweet Valencias that ripen in Florida, however, the Sunshine State may be turning orange: A Suffolk University poll released Thursday shows Trump leading Clinton 45% to 44%, an indication that Clinton’s one-time lead there could be slipping.
