Yes...that same Van Jones from the early days of the Reign of Obama.
I cannot stand Van Jones...I don't agree with anything I have heard him say or anything he has written. I was hoping he had just faded away or moved to a communist country to live happily under a system of government he do desperately wanted here.
However...and I had to do a double take and deep breath before typing this...however, the man is making some sense and I found myself nodding in agreement.
I find it amazing that he echoed what A BUNCH OF US are saying on this board about how the wrong people become cops.
I am dizzy from trying to figure out what dimension I have slipped into in which I am agreeing with what VAN JONES is saying...but that is where this video took me.

I know many of you will not agree with Newt's point of "white Americans...not understanding..." but that's partially (I presume) because you've never wiped the tears from the face of a black person you love while they are explaining what Newt is talking about. I know that many of you on this board will just roll your eyes at that statement, and that is your choice to do so.
