Holder says he understands mistrust of police
Associated Press ^ | 08/21/2014 | ALAN SCHER ZAGIER

Attorney General Eric Holder sought Wednesday to reassure the people of Ferguson about the investigation into Michael Brown's death and said he understands why many black Americans do not trust police, recalling how he was repeatedly stopped by officers who seemed to target him because of his race.

Holder made the remarks during a visit to the St. Louis suburb that has endured more than a week of unrest fueled by the fatal shooting of the black 18-year-old by a white officer. The Obama administration intended the trip to underscore its commitment to civil rights in general and the Ferguson case in particular.

This lying, perjuring, corrupt criminal wants to talk about mistrust!

No one of any knowledge or intelligence trusts Eric Holder. And rightfully so.

Does he realize that HE is the chief law enforcement officer of the United States? WTH?

Does he understand mistrust of the Federal Government when people as completely unfit for public service such as himself and Obama occupy such powerful positions?

No, he does not. What he does understand is that he is the chief racial enforcement officer in this land.

It would be helpful if he understood the distrust of the AG.

What if I said, “I understand why white people distrust blacks”?

Holder’s remarks indicate to me that this won’t be a thorough and impartial investigation. He’s already assuming that the officer is guilty based on his personal experience with the police.

His presence in Ferguson is basically a black power salute.

I trust that it will probably end up in a liberal lynching.

It’s their nature, being the founders of the KKK.

“What if I said, “I understand why white people distrust blacks”?”

Then, of course, that would be racist.

(Not, given the crime statistics...)

A racist criminal fool. He was the one responsible for all those pardons as Clinton was too busy leaving office with White house silverware and all those keys off the keyboards. These people are truly evil and yet they would have us think otherwise.

In the eyes of Holder the police are still "pigs."

Well, anti-white rights at any rate.

This piece of garbage should have been impeached for contempt of congress long ago.

This is what happens when evil people are not held accountable, They go on to do more evil.

Like his boss, ‘Steadman’ just can’t shake campaign mode ...
“It’s the Man keepin’ us down!” says US Atty General Holder, the pResident’s favorite stooge and mouthpiece.
Zero golfs because he still has an atom of shame and even a particle of pride, and it’s just too damned painful for him to watch his people in action after six years of them ladling his pure cow manure, and prefaced by such gems as, “Let me be clear”, “Make no mistake about it” and “Please don’t misunderstand”.
