Thank-you for defending your state with positive history. You look like someone that shouldn't be riled-- And my Uncle who was a decorated WWII war veteran lived in Alabama, though I have never visited. There is good PR for Alabama like the movie, "Forrest Gump," even though there were racial undertones in the movie, and the movie, "My Cousin Vinny," was about life in the South. I'm a country guy at heart, and grew up in a small farm town and our band played Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, but, unfortunately there were no African American students at our high school. But, I have good friends who are Black African Americans. And, having been oppressed in many ways throughout my lifetime, I can more easily understand oppressed people.
But, many people in America have not lived in the South, and some of our understanding comes from media, like movies. And I think it's fair to say that there are still remnants of racism still entrenched in southern culture. There are three strikes against an Anglo politician from the south being the "top cop," of America, especially considering the racial tensions in America due to high profile accidental deaths involving minorities.
1) He favors past obsolete, failed policies that are pretty much winding around like a nursery toy puppet, building up tensions.
2) He's white.
3) Any Anglo politician from the South will inherently endanger the lives and safety of police officers due to the racial tensions in America.
While I support Donald Trump as president for many reasons, including his defeat of the liberal threat to the unborn, and liberal support of non-traditional marriage, any Anglo politician Attorney General from the south would personally be responsible for the perpetuation of violence against law enforcement, who are already maxed out enforcing useless obsolete drug enforcement policies, simply because of representing an office of "top cop," and being seen as a "white dude from the South." These kinds of cultural dynamics that are ingrained in society take decades, even centuries to change.
Appointing a "white dude from the south," would equate to facilitating: "POP! GOES THE WEASEL!!"
And, because they know that's exactly what could happen, i.e, --racial tensions could explode--
anyone who would dare to accept such a nomination, would immediately be seen as a racist, for one, and they would knowingly be consenting to the "reckless endangerment" of America's law enforcement officers.
That's a pretty bad start for an Attorney General, if you ask me.
