Sheriff David Clarke: 'Blacks Sell Drugs' Because They Are 'Lazy' And 'Morally Bankrupt'
Submitted by Isabel Carter-Kahn on Tuesday, 11/3/2015 12:06 pm
Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke, an outspoken critic of President Obama, Black Lives Matter, and LGBT rights, hosts a weekly podcast, The Peoples Sheriff, on Glenn Becks TheBlaze Radio Network. Clarke spent last weeks podcast analyzing a New York Times piece by Harvard professor Sendhil Mullainathan, which argues that while police killings are a race problem, they are a problem that is not necessarily rooted in racial bias on the part of individual officers. During his discussion, Clarke responded to Mullainathans claim that low-income African Americans are overrepresented in the population of drug dealers due to fewer job options by alleging that the real reason black people are more likely to have interactions with law enforcement is because of dysfunctional black subculture. Clarke continued, Let me tell you why blacks sell drugs and involve themselves in criminal behavior, instead of a more socially acceptable lifestyle: because theyre uneducated, theyre lazy, and theyre morally bankrupt. Thats why.

The R's in the suburbs love him and split their vote in order to pick him up.
