Barr said, “While many police officers do their job admirably and well, it is undeniable that many African Americans lack confidence in our American criminal justice system."
Get that? It’s not that there’s a problem with the police. Barr is saying that the problem is with Black people.
To be doubly sure about this, Barr was asked about this comment during Q & A. In response to a reporter, Barr said that his views have not changed, and he does not believe there’s a systematic problem with law enforcement. The vast majority of police "use appropriate and reasonable response."
And then Barr bragged about how well he handled the Rodney King situation.
