Sen. Claire McCaskill claims it’s understandable for African-Americans to make a rush to judgement in the Michael Brown Ferguson case because, as she puts it, there is still “driving while black” in this country:
“The rush to judgment by some in the African-American community is, in fact, understandable, because there is ‘driving while black’ in our country. There are racial disparities in terms of how people are treated.”
But McCaskill’s excuse doesn’t make sense. Michael Brown wasn’t ‘driving while black’. He was ‘walking while thug’. Heck, he had just robbed a convenient store and thugged all over the owner.
McCaskill begins the clip by saying it’s a problem for the police force to be 95% white in a 75% black town and the Morning Joe RINO totally agrees with her. Ugh.
But then Joe partially redeems himself by yelling at McCaskill when she wouldn’t answer the question of what she would tell protesters if Wilson isn’t indicted. That’s when she was making excuses for blacks rushing to judgement, and the Morning Joe RINO basically forced her to say that Wilson should be respected and allowed to live his life in not indicted. It was like pulling teeth though.
