A Law and Order Joe Biden from 1994 that he probably wants the public to forget.
Was that the protest-riot in Seattle? Can't watch a video at present but the timing seems about right.But it's different, because Clinton was President and Orange Man Bad!
I think it was in regard to the 1994 crime bill.
Progressives are running the risk of alienating voters across the country with their "radioactive" push to dismantle police departments, "The Five" co-host Jesse Watters said Monday."Think about this, the Democrats have come out with a position that even [co-host] Juan Williams thinks is so radioactive, you have to distance yourself from it," Watters said after Williams voiced his opposition to defunding the police earlier in the segment.Watters' comments come amid growing calls to weaken law enforcement in the wake of George Floyd's May 25 death. As protests broke out across the nation, the Black Lives Matter movement announced a “call for a national defunding of police," which has gained support among notable Democratic politicians and celebrities.Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's campaign came out Monday against the growing movement, saying instead that the candidate supports the “urgent need for reform.”
WASHINGTON — When Joseph R. Biden Jr. became the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1987, a few months ahead of his first and ultimately unsuccessful presidential campaign, he told aides his goal was to enact legislation that would take a comprehensive approach to reducing crime.As the ranking minority member of the committee since 1981, Mr. Biden had helped pass two bills establishing mandatory minimums for drug offenses. But as chairman, facing high violent crime rates, a crack cocaine epidemic, and accusations by Republicans that his party was soft on crime, Mr. Biden wanted holistic reform.The effort, which defined much of his time as committee chairman, culminated in the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, a sweeping, bipartisan bill that touched nearly every aspect of American law enforcement that was signed into law by President Bill Clinton.More than two decades later, that legislation is once again the subject of fierce debate — this time, as a bipartisan coalition of activists and lawmakers seeks to undo the era of mass incarceration they say the 1994 crime bill helped create.
Hmmm, so you have Biden not only acting like a law and order guy, but using almost Trumpian language in doing so.
