Yes, it was disappointing to see him double down on that after it seems like he was taking (some) responsibility for his actions and the disastrous results.

I don’t know how you would characterize these gang leaders who’ve got 13-year-old kids hopped up on crack and send them out onto the streets to murder other African American children
Misinterpretation?
Why don’t people bring up white on white crime when an immigrant kills a white person? The vast majority of white murder victims were killed by white people after all.
This should be a stark reminder that Hillary and her husband are just gussied up neo-liberals who will drop minority rights and justice like a hot potato once they get into office. Tell me again why you “have to” vote for Hillary? Preferably something that doesn’t involve “she’s not [slightly more right-wing…
I am white and from rural Canada. Therefor I have absolutely no idea what it feels like to be a person of colour. I don’t have “many friends who are black” and wouldn’t dream of trying to say that I get it or that I can speak for them. I don’t understand why more politicians can’t just admit that and move on to trying…
Bill Clinton filled in for his wife and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton at a rally in Philadelphia, where he…
Her father always had parental rights; she was never their child. She was never adoptable.
No, they haven’t. She’s been with them four years, and they were told at the outset (and repeatedly thereafter) that she was not adoptable and that family reunification was the goal of her case. As responsible fosters they should have put her interests before their own by trying to facilitate that reunification in a…
One of things I hope for most dearly is that the death penalty will be abolished in my lifetime. Not the feckless, useless, piecemeal state by state abolition, but the federal government actually stepping up and saying no more. I hate this shit. It’s WRONG.
Keep fighting - as a New York Times commenter wrote this morning, “It isn’t over. It isn’t the beginning of the end. Hell, it isn’t even the end of the beginning.”
Woke up. Looked at the numbers, and it isn’t as bad as I thought last night. He outperformed Nate Silver’s predictions in every state except Ohio (Seriously, Ohio’s middle class workers losing their jobs to TPP when Hilary signs it can go to hell.) and it is still possible though it is an uphill battle. I gave $27…
Last Election she wanted to be the white folks candidate, this election my state was a weird caucus and didn’t count. My cousin went away as her “super predator” in the 90s. In 2013 she came out in support of same-marriage, which she before opposed. Marriage she found to be a “sacred bound between man and woman” and…
I’ve spent the evening crying and feeling a combination of disgust and disappointment in my country. I also had to endure a mansplaining from a retiree-aged fellow who told me that Hilary is the ‘safe choice’ to run against the Republican nominee. He is an honored guest, so screaming wasn’t an option. I seriously…
Yes to all of that! It’s a hard pill to swallow and it makes me wonder what the hell has to happen for people to wake up. What has to happen for people to get sick of the same old shit in a different package?
Nothing in her history shows a commitment to anything but what is popular and/or heavily financed. If the country moves further right, she’ll move right along with it.
Same. Hillary disgusts me. Like, I woke up in cold sweats a few weeks ago after envisioning her winning the primary.
As a fellow POC, I too am disappointed. I’m not surprised, but there is certainly a level of sadness in me right now.
Can’t wait for all the white women to come tell you your wrong that Hillary Will save black people.
