Friday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Milwaukee Co., WI Sheriff David Clarke reacted to remarks from Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton speculating on why some in the black community join gangs.

“Joining a gang is like having a family,” Clinton said. “It’s feeling like you’re part of something bigger than yourself.”

Clarke rejected that statement and told fill-in host Tucker Carlson those remarks demonstrate Clinton’s disconnect from life in the black community.

“Tucker, I’m still trying to get my head around this,” Clarke said. “Joining gang is like joining a family. Mrs. Bill Clinton is totally disconnected from life in the black community. She has such a misperception about our intelligence level. She thinks we’re some lower form of intelligence to think because we don’t have family experience we should join a gang. That is preposterous. Why didn’t she say make better lifestyle choices? If you want to join something, why don’t you join a church? Why don’t you join the Boy Scouts or the Girl Scouts? How about the boys clubs and girls clubs?”

“To sit up there and suggest that we — that is dysfunctional culture, gang activity,” he continued. “For her to sit up there and embrace this as if it’s something that’s socially acceptable in the black community, this stuff ought to be rejected out of hand. It ought to be shunned and shamed by the black community. The reason why there’s no family structure in the black community, she should offer an apology, is because of failed liberal urban policies, the war on poverty, that totally destroyed any structure or any family unit in the black community. And she should have brought that up and said we’ve got to change policies so we can help the black community reconstruct that family experience so kids can make better lifestyle choices.”
