My issue is hypocrisy. Slavery was hypocritical. It involved lying, deceit, distorting the word of God, etc. Civil rights will never result in a world that is just if those fighting for civil rights are hypocrites. You will not get justice if the foundation is lies, deceits, and hypocrisy.
I don't excuse the lies and deceits of Clinton, on the other hand I don't think that Clinton's lies justify or exonerate Trump's lies.
It is quite obvious that many people feel you have to compensate for past injustice with present injustice. I believe that is a failed strategy. If people rebelled against the past injustice then they will certainly rebel against institutional injustice that is supposed to "compensate" for that.

Where and how do your comments about Clinton (Bill? Hilary?) and Trump fit into racial reparations and perceived past injustices?
These comments are flawed on so many levels.
