    2. Super predators as Hillary Clinton said during a speech advocating the Violent crime control and law enforcement act in 1990s. Here's the full quote:
      " They are not just gangs of kids anymore, they are often the kinds of kids that are called 'super predators ' no conscious,no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way,but first we have to bring them to heel."
      Hillary Clinton
