140. Point being
Couses on drug dealing or weapons carrying are not necessarily a bad thing. What you do with that info is another.

Will we condemn anyone who speaks at a Police Academy graduation because some of the graduates took the knowledge they learned from their coursework and worked it against the system? Mistreated witnesses, beat up suspects, raped Louima with a broom handle. All these folks were graduates of the police academy. So should we condemn someone who spoke at their graduation?????

Knowledge is neutral. What you do with it is not. To paint Clark with such a broad brush of guilt by association is pretty disingenuous.
