Crump specializes in civil rights cases and was the attorney for the families of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd. For legal scholar and political scientist Dr. Carol Swain, what Crump said was "problematic" and "ludicrous." "We need laws to be obeyed and we need a public that's informed. And under no circumstances should we redefine crime so that it isn't a crime," Swain told Fox News. "Are we going to redefine murder? Are we going to redefine rape? No, we don't want to go down that path." She pointed out that these comments from the attorney would only create more hostility between black youths and law enforcement. "What he is saying is false, and it will lead to the loss of Black lives. Unfortunately, people who are not well-educated, or people who have been indoctrinated with Marxism, will believe him, and that will be unfortunate for America," she said. Swain, who is also black, said it hurts to admit that there is a disproportionate amount of crime within the back community. In fact, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) data shows that blacks committed 46.8 percent of violent crimes and 36 percent of drug crimes in the U.S. in 2022, despite making up only 14.4 percent of the population. "The argument that the crimes that Black Americans and maybe other minorities are being arrested for, that somehow these are biased, somehow targets them, I think it's ludicrous," she told the news outlet. "In fact, there are some things that they are not being arrested for that I would arrest them for." Instead of perpetuating rhetoric that breeds more anger and distrust toward authority figures, Swain said prominent figures like Crump should work on finding real solutions to improve the lives of Black Americans.The most insane thing you have ever heard from@MSNBC
