Kamala Harris Once Compared Policing to Lynching and Jim Crow — But Now She’s Touting Her Law Enforcement Background; ‘Let’s Review Kamala’s Pro-Crime Anti-Police Record…’: Trump Slams VP Harris At Michigan Event; Harris Has History of Anti-Police Comments

Kamala Harris once compared policing to lynching and Jim Crow — but now she’s touting her law enforcement background:

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris — who eagerly describes herself as a prosecutor running against “felon” Donald Trump — likened law enforcement in America to lynching and Jim Crow restrictions during the height of racial unrest in mid-2020.

“When we say that America has a history of systemic racism, we mean that from slavery, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, and policing, our institutions have done violence to black Americans,” Harris, then a senator from California, said during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on “Police Use of Force and Community Relations” in June of that year, weeks after the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin.

“And it has caused black Americans to be treated as less than human across time, place, and institution,” Harris, now 59, added before calling for the elimination of “systemic racism.”

Four years later, Harris is leaning into her own law enforcement background — framing the 2024 election as a battle between a prosecutor and a convicted criminal.

“Before I became vice president and before I was elected as U.S. [sic] senator, I was the attorney general of California. Before that, I was a prosecutor who took on predators, fraudsters, and cheaters. So I know Donald Trump’s type,” she posted on X last month.

In her 2020 remarks, Harris invoked the deaths of Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery — whom she described as being “lynched while going for a run” — and Breonna Taylor, who was killed in March 2020 during a so-called no-knock warrant in her Louisville, Ky. home.

“There is a movement being led by people who might appear from the outside to have little in common, who are marching together to demand an end to the black blood that is staining the sidewalks of our country,” she said. “It gives me hope.”

Harris then added that America “must reimagine what public safety looks like” while arguing that more policing wasn’t the answer.

“The status quo thinking that more police creates more safety is wrong. It’s wrong. And it has motivated too much of municipal budgets and the thinking of policymakers,” she argued.

“[It] has distracted them from what would truly be the smartest use of resources to achieve safety in communities, which is to invest in the health of those communities. And healthy communities without any doubt are safe communities.” —>READ MORE HERE
