The NY Times reports:
Hillary Clinton invoked her roles as mother and grandmother on Saturday to deliver an impassioned rebuttal to Donald J. Trump’s contention that her push for stricter gun control would make families less safe, saying the presumptive Republican nominee would put more children “at risk of violence and bigotry.” ...She is pandering to those who think that gun laws and racism caused Trayvon Martin to be killed for the color of his skin.
On Saturday, Mrs. Clinton reaffirmed her commitment to both gun control and the overhaul of the criminal justice system, two issues that formed the pillars of her primary campaign and have helped her win broad support among African-Americans.
Mrs. Clinton vowed to end the “schools to prison pipeline” that affects black men. “Something is wrong when so many Americans have reason to believe that our country doesn’t consider their children as precious and worthy of protection as other children because of the color of their skins,” she said.
No. Trayvon Martin died because he was a criminal thug who tried to kill an innocent man. Race had little or nothing to do with Martin's crime.
Blacks like Martin do commit violent crimes at much higher rates. I guess Clinton is promising not to prosecute criminals like him, and to disarm the law-abiding men like Martin's hispanic victim.
The Democrats are seeking a race war.

No, Anonymous, the rates are not similar. I regularly see commenters on American Renaissance claim something like
- In white trailor parks, there are hookers, we find drugs there. But I can walk through such a neighborhood without being shot. Walking through a black neighborhood is dangerous. You get robbed, possibly killed.

Are you in favor of slavery ? Don't you think that whites should take some responsibility for their discrimination of blacks ? Give a black child the benefit of growing up in Beverly Hills or on Park Place instead of Watts or Harlem and you'll find that they'll be as likely or as unlikely to be involved as the whites that grow up there.

No this is not exactly how it is. See this case http://www.amren.com/news/2014/03/why-one-mother-gave-back-her-adopted-son/
Thank you for sharing that with me. I think it's sad that what the child had experienced by age 5 was to much to overcome. I believe had they adopted the child at birth, things would have worked out completely differently.
There is a fair amount of data on kids being adopted at birth. You might want to check it out before jumping to conclusions.
If it's handy for you to provide it to me, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

Something to check out before jumping to any conclusions...
Two small studies have tried to compare genetically similar children raised in black and white families. Elsie Moore found that black children adopted by white parents had IQ scores 13.5 points higher than black children adopted by black parents. Lee Willerman and his colleagues compared children with a black mother and a white father to children with a white mother and a black father. The cleanest comparison is for mixed-race children who lived only with their mother. Mixed-race children who lived with a white mother scored 11 points higher than mixed-race children who lived with a black mother. Since the black-white IQ gap averaged about 15 points at the time these two studies were done, they imply that about four-fifths of that gap was traceable to family-related factors (including schools and neighborhoods).
