Tim Scott rebuttal = the usual BS
#16
“we are not a racist country,” Scott said. “We deal with racism because there is racism in the country. Both are true, not mutually exclusive.”

OK, Scott - yes, we do have measures in place, such as affirmative action, laws allowing African Americans to marry whomever they want (since the 1960's) and live in the suburbs (1960's), and outlawing slavery of African Americans in all 50 states (since 2013 - thanks Mississippi).

However:
- SLAVERY WAS STILL LEGAL IN MISSISSIPPI 8 YEARS AGO.
- Look at the racial disparity in prisons, and consider the possibility that making African Americans do forced labor might just be a form of slavery.
- White supremacists still march through towns with the protection of police, under the banner of "free speech."
- There is, without question, systemic racism among the police force. I hardly need to outline my reasons for saying so.

Scott, you're splitting hairs for political reasons.
Careful - you'll lose the minority vote, leaving you reliant on South Carolina whites to vote for you.
