Nat'l Bar Assoc., country's largest black attorneys group, calls for federal charges against Wilson
The Birmingham News ^ | November 26, 2014 | Leada Gore

The nation's largest group of African-American attorneys and judges is calling for federal charges to the filed against the police officer cleared in the shooting of an unarmed black teenager.

The National Bar Association released a statement questioning the lack of an indictment against Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson. A 12-member grand jury declined to indict Wilson, and some groups are pressing the White House to move forward with a Civil Rights investigation.

Attorney General Eric Holder told NPR there is not a timeline for the federal investigation but said they "will be conducted rigorously and in a timely manner so that we can move forward as expeditiously as we can to restore trust, to rebuild understanding, and to foster cooperation between law enforcement and community members."(continued)

They are doing everything they can think of to start a race war. They may actually get it, but the odds are heavily against them prevailing.

Just what kind of cockymamy charges do they want filed? They can’t be very good lawyers if they have to have a segregated bar association. Sounds like their a bunch of racists only more dangerous than the Klan because they use the law to commit their crimes, in this case a lynching.

the federal investigation … "will be conducted rigorously and in a timely manner so that we can move forward as expeditiously as we can to restore trust, to rebuild understanding, and to foster cooperation between law enforcement and community members."

I am sure all of the LEOs in the country will feeling all warm and fuzzy about the Federal government after they see a fellow LEO get raked over the coals by the Justice Department.

I am also sure that all of the LEOs that risk their lives every day going in to black neighborhoods to protect and serve will be feel really welcomed and loved after the black community has rioted for days on end burned cars and businesses after one of their fellow LEOs was vilified, for months after he defended his own life against a thug who had just robbed a convenience store and tried to take his weapon and kill him in his squad car.

Yep the Obama administration is trying to build trust and understanding by doing everything he can to make it look like Wilson is getting away with murder short of saying that Wilson is getting away with murder.

This administration is sick and twisted...if nothing else, I hope the US public sees how important it is to require voter ID at the polls - and to never - ever - under no circumstance - elect another Democrat! - especially one that has no “true” record of who they are and where they came from - and has a job title of community organizer!

Those idiots in Missouri illustrated to the world that the violence had nothing to do with WILSON or Brwn - and everything to do with burning, looting, and all out chaos...they could less about doing the right and common sense approach and proved why a nation should never allow a portion of their citizens to stay on govt. welfare as a life choice!

Just think. Qualified applicants were denied places in law school so that these Affirmative Action punks could go (for free) be called “lawyers.”

I’m serious. Is this really what they want to start? Have they thought any of this through, or are they still on the “special victim” plantation. War is very ugly and lots of people die. I can’t quite wrap my head around a 13% minority wanting to take on the entire rest of the country minus the 50% white guilt sufferers, who will do nothing and just be mowed down with them. This is pure insanity.

Is Obama REALLY this evil???

Not going to happen.
The people have put up with months of nonsense while this investigation nad case was presented and after all the evidence was in and weighed,it was determined nothing existed to charge the officer. Now the people are putting up with riots and looting. I think the people are about fed up. If the Feds try to bring some trumped up bullshit civil rights charge, it is not going to end well.

I put nothing past this administration. Look what we've had done to the Constitution already.
