What is borderline racist about it? It's absolutely true. African-American parents and grandparents have far more to be worried about when it comes to mistreatment by law enforcement

She is right and this might of been her best speech of the campaign.

[Mallow]

Borderline racist? This is absolutely accurate, and I'm sure black people know exactly what she's talking about.

[JerryArkansas]

Only a racist would find that racist.

[publicunofficial]

That's the complete opposite of racism, Wulfric. Try harder next time.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Wulfric tries to outdo Tender when it comes to disingenuous thread titles.

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

How is that racist? Black people are more likely to face discrimination by the police then white people.  

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Privilege is totally racist you guys...lol

[Simfan34]

This isn't racist.

So it is decreed.

Her grandchildren ARE white. And that DOES advantage them. This is like trying to argue that a white person supporting BLM because they disagree with the unequal treatment of people of color by law enforcement is racist of the white person.

So it roughly translates to: "because my grandchildren are white, they will get in less trouble with the law." Congrats, Clinton, you've just created a new Trump atrack: "Crooked Hillary Clinton is so racist that at a black church she actually said "because my grandchildren are white, they will get in less trouble with the law." She is saying that Blacks are criminals! Vote for me, what do you have to lose ?!?

And who will this attack ad appeal to?

Democrats don't need to pander to white people who would be offending by this. She knows this, which is why she is being completely honest about this issue.

Black people aren't dumb like you seem to think they are. They know what she means (and it's exactly what she said). To try to spin this as if Clinton is implying that "Blacks are criminals!" is... wowza, that's a stretch I don't think Gumbi could even manage.

He'll give another speech that will convince 0 black people to vote for him? Damn, Hillary should really learn not to say things that could be considered racist if you completely change the quote.

And unlike what you think it's true and she wants to actually change it.

How is that racist ?

Exactly. She's not going to win the "policing is never racist!!!!1111!!!!" vote over Trump.

[Devout Centrist]

My worries and concerns are different than a young black guy from Kenya.

Am I racist now? If I changed Kenya with LA, would that make it racist? I mean our concerns would be at least somewhat similar in that case.

[Xing]

So saying that black people have it harder in America than white people is racist? WTF!?
