Eric Holder's Racial Preference

I think people will be disturbed when they come to see Eric Holder’s blatant racial bias.  Our justice department is not supposed to be partisan or racist. 

 

Eric Holder’s withdrawal of convictions against the New Black Panthers who intimidated voters in the 2008 election is an affront to justice and to the civil rights leaders that fought for equal rights.  Martin Luther King’s dream was not a nation where armed black militants stood by the voting booths intimidating whites.   It wasn’t right when blacks were intimidated in the past, but the solution is not to turn the tables.  People who are aware of what Eric Holder and his Justice Department are doing on this case are disgusted.  An Attorney within the DOJ has resigned in protest.  Here is a video of the crime.  The video also includes the gentleman’s call for racial genocide.  Nice guy.  Glad to know the Justice Department is protecting him.

 

Now there is talk of a Federal investigation into the shooting of Oscar Grant.  Yesterday a BART police officer was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for the shooting.  He will spend years in jail as a result of being convicted by a jury of his peers,  but that evidently is not enough.  I am waiting to see what happens here.  If Holder attacks this officer with another charge, then I believe it is a racially based prosecution.  The state criminal justice system has functioned properly.  From my perspective, we should not second guess our law enforcement officers.  The video in this case to me demonstrates that the officer was not enraged or out of control.  The calm manner in which he discharged his weapon makes me believe he made a serious mistake about the weapon in his hand.  While my opinion is irrelevant, the officer was judged by a jury and found to have been guilty of manslaughter.      We don’t need the Fed’s to come in an deliver justice.  This isn’t Mississippi in 1965.  The officer wasn’t acquitted by a rigged jury.  It was a close case even though it was documented on video.  The jury verdict should stand and the Fed’s should stay out of it.

 

Soon, the pattern will become clear.  Eric Holder is not about equal application of the law to all people.  I am starting to fear that “social justice” is a code word for something other than equality for all.
