Why do we have the Feds butting in on this one case when there are numerous other crimes and killing occurring on towns and cities all over this country where the FBI spends NO TIME on?

They are looking for a case that gives the Federal government justification to exercise control over local policing methods.

It's all because of the DOJ's agenda. They want to bring local police departments under federal supervision so they can be forced to abide by the left's guidelines of policing.

Fox had one of their experts commenting on the report that no civil rights charges would be brought against Darren Wilson. He thought it was the expected outcome--they didn't have a case and should have known that an hour after they began their investigation, but they were using the incident as a hook to claim that a wider investigation of the department's practices was needed. They have unlimited resources and Ferguson doesn't so they will ultimately be forced into a consent agreement to abide by the DOJ rules...the same thing has been done in other cities.

I think this was on Megan Kelly's program...anyone both the host and the expert agreed that it is striking that Holder has made no public comment on the rumor.

That’s a rhetorical question. I would have expected you to provide an explanation.

You didn’t. I will. It’s exactly the same reason they jumped in on the Rodney King case and why they instantly gave immunity to the Sergeant in the Garner case. “Political Advantage”. Their jurisdiction was manufactured to deal with the Democrats of the South. Today, it is only used to grab headlines and let AG Holder grandstand to incite rioting.

Yep. Plenty of crimes from years past to work on. Say, like ANYTHING the Clintons touched?

Why are the feds involved?

So they could look for some reason - any reason - to get Darren Wilson into jail, sue him into bankruptcy or otherwise ruin his life in order to placate the Left’s racist base.
