I need some help sorting through this.
Did it come down to hard truths and the bad moves of the Clinton administration?
Im certain there is much more being discussed, and I would love to hear what she has specifically done or said
regarding Ferguson and all other police misconduct.
thank you!

[DonViejo]

17. Cute. But you know damned well that isn't what I was saying...

But, I do now realize you are neither worth my time or energy to try and have a conversation with. Have a pleasant life.

You felt the need to post another link, your from 2014, to show how far back her history goes. Now you wanna be all personal and snotty. Go ahead, take your ball and go home.

19. She did come to Ferguson this year and she said

Clinton did say that law enforcement must “respect the communities they serve.” And, at one point, she used the phrase “all lives matter,” a play on the Ferguson protest refrain “black lives matter.”

Hillary Clinton Denounces Torture, Says Black Lives Matter

-snip-

Clinton also addressed the recent protests that have raged across the country, and drew links between violence at home and abroad.

She declared, "yes, black lives matter," a mantra of demonstrators around the country who have been protesting recent grand jury decisions not to indict white police officers involved in the deaths of unarmed black men in Ferguson, Missouri, and in New York.

She wondered what Kennedy would say about "the thousands of Americans marching in our streets demanding justice for all," and "the mothers who've lost their sons."

"What would he say to all those who have lost trust in our government and our other institutions, who shudder at images of excessive force, who read reports about torture done in the name of our country, who see too many representatives in Washington quick to protect a big bank from regulation but slow to take action to help working families facing ever greater pressure," Clinton said.

This Is What the #BlackLivesMatter Founders Want You to Know on the Movement's Anniversary

5. Clinton uses her platform

In a surprise move late last year, current presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton became the most high-profile American politician to say "Black lives matter." In April, shortly after she announced her campaign for the presidency, Clinton said the nation needed to face "hard truths about race and justice," specifically police reform, the disproportionate practice of killing unarmed black people at the hands of police and mass incarceration.

"Without the mass incarceration that we currently practice, millions fewer people would be in poverty," she said, according to ThinkProgress. "You cannot talk about smart policing and reforming our justice system without talking about what's needed to improve economic opportunity, better educational chances for young people, more support to families so they can do the best jobs they are capable of doing to help support their own children."

5. threw Bill under the bus?

thats edgy politicking.
Have to agree with the strategy.

[DonViejo]

9. I suspect that's why the former President has been saying he was wrong

about laws he signed during his tenure in the White House; his wife was going to throw him under the bus.

15. fortunately, Glass-Steagall was the right move

at the right time, and still is.
he wasnt always wrong, usually quite Right.

10. So she's changed her mind on torture?

16. Is this changing her mind, sabrina1?...

Hillary Clinton: torture is wrong and 'yes, black lives matter'
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2014/dec/17/hillary-clinton-torture-is-wrong-and-yes-black-lives-matter

also:

In October 2006, Clinton spoke about exceptions to a no-torture policy when speaking to the New York Daily News. Clinton mentioned a "ticking time bomb" scenario in which a captured terrorist has knowledge of an imminent terror attack and interrogators want to use torture.

"In the event we were ever confronted with having to interrogate a detainee with knowledge of an imminent threat to millions of Americans, then the decision to depart from standard international practices must be made by the president, and the president must be held accountable," she said. "That very, very narrow exception within very, very limited circumstances is better than blasting a big hole in our entire law."

Then, on Sept. 26, 2007, Clinton said something different. During a debate, Tim Russert asked her about the ticking bomb scenario and here's what she said: "As a matter of policy, it cannot be American policy, period." She said she met with military generals who told her there is "very little evidence that it works."

In the days after the debate, the Republican National Committee criticized her for flip-flopping, and Obama said he would oppose torture "without exception or equivocation," according to Daily News reports.
