Your Daily Quiz on Racial Bias in Criminal Justice

| 0 Comments
We often hear that crime is bred by America's callousness, its class system, and its denying opportunity to those it excludes.  Of course, these are not the only explanations.

Q:  Who said that our country must realize

...that crime is generated by a lack of values that has largely gone unaddressed in our nation as a whole and in the black community in particular. Soaring unwed birthrates, absentee fathers, an aversion to work, an unwillingness to embrace societal standards and time-honored discipline -- all these factors have contributed to the problems we must now confront.

A: Pick one:

1.  Donald Trump when he thought the microphone was off
2.  The head of the Tea Party
3.  The John Birch Society
4.  The Imperial Klud of the KKK 


Wrongo.

It was said by the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, 1994 edition. That would be Eric Holder.

This was reported by the liberal black columnist for the Washington Post, Courtland Milloy, whose August 25 column is here.

This is one reason I was optimistic when Mr. Holder was appointed Attorney General. Fooled again.
