We Still Need ’Law and Order’

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. 

Law and order.  Before it was the name of an immensely popular TV crime show, it was a concept that enjoyed broad bipartisan political support.  And for good reason: For years, American cities and other communities suffered from surging violence, death and destruction, usually driven by drug-related criminal activity. 

In 1994, then-President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, worked with legislators on both sides of the aisle to protect public safety. In an exchange yesterday sparked by protesters associated with the George Soros-funded, proto-insurgency known as “Black Lives Matters,” Mr. Clinton provided a spirited – and long overdue – defense of that legislation. 

He pointed out that the law protected African-Americans, as well as others, telling the agitators, “You're defending the people who killed the lives you say matter.” 

We all still need law and order.
