No, in an equitable scenario the past shouldn't matter. But in this case and because of the history/violence those actions provoked, they must be held in the same vein in whatever route said person goes down.
And again with this whole "well black people agreed so it was kinda fine". You do remember this was just after the Crack-Cocaine epidemic, which i reffered to earlier? You do know that the 94 Crime Bill was simply a way to use Blackness as a political vehicle, AGAIN, in the same way that HRC (and Trump) will seek to use Muslim-Americans (as determined by their comments at the Debate last night).
You cannot just erase that entire backstory but that is totally relevent, as to why the Prison system is like that in the first place. Dismissing it is v v stupid and totally naive.
Honestly, just watch Ava Duvernay's doc 13th. It will clear everything up for you

How do you know she was complicit? Hillary doesn't run the justice system just like Obama doesn't now. There was a complain about crime at the time (An increase in all crime not just drug related crime) and a bill was passed to increase the funding for the justice system, crack down crime and ban assault weapons and crack down sex offenses. The current VP wrote it, and Bill signed it. The rest was the justice system's doing. No one is dismissing anything but it's interesting how this wasn't an issue when Obama was running with Biden. And it wasn't the Crime Bill that made prison system like it is now. It's the war on drugs by Reagan and Nixon that did. Also, I took a criminal psychology class. I don't need to watch a documentary which is, btw, the worst way to get information on anything.
And you cannot compare Trump's treatments of Muslims to Hillary's treatment of Muslims. That's just not serious. You sir are a troll and I'm not gonna waste more time on you.
I really can't at how fast ignorance spreads on facebook. It's like these pool of idiots get together and spread misinformation as truth. It baffles me every time I see the Trumpers out in droves hijacking every Hillary or Dem article. 
It's also scary.
