Rand Paul on Ferguson: "It is impossible for African-Americans not to feel like their government is particularly targeting them."

Rand Paul on Ferguson: "It is impossible for African-Americans not to feel like their government is particularly targeting them.": ""If I had been told to get out of the street as a teenager," writes Paul, "there would have been a distinct possibility that I might have smarted off. But, I wouldn’t have expected to be shot." Later, he sympathizes with blacks who "feel like their government is particularly targeting them." It's exactly what Paul does when he talks about drug laws and felonies, giving examples of how so many white people have escaped the life-changing criminal judgments of black people who behave the same way."
