When a black mother asked Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Tuesday what she would do to address the disproportionate amount of police violence against black people, Clinton urged everyone to sympathize with the plight of black families who fear for their children’s safety. At a town hall outside Philadelphia, the woman, who gave her name as Ernie, told Clinton that she has three sons between the ages of 18 and 26. “The gun violence is real for me as a mother,” the woman told Clinton, “because they can walk out to the store ― doing their own thing, minding their business, doing quality-of-life things ― and get pulled over by the police.”
