Feds Objected To The Release Of Alleged Michael Brown Robbery Tape

Well of course they do!

Can't let little pesky things like FACTS get in the way of the social justice narrative!

Well, of course they did.

USAG Derrick Holden wanted this thing to drag out past the elections.

Are we searching for the truth, or calm?

We may soon have to decide which is more important...

Police in Ferguson released a video tape allegedly showing slain teen Michael Brown robbing a store even though the Justice Department warned that doing so could inflame racial tensions, CNN is reporting.

That is probably the dumbest **** I've read in the past 25 years. LOL! What an idiot? An "alleged" security video? Morons! "Inflame" racial tensions?" I don't think there is any chance of that happening. The racists are too busy looting and burning down buildings. These "media" types are all blithering idiots! They really need to try harder to focus.

> Is this the same Federal Government that also objects to releasing any information on Obozo’s past?

The same one that makes sure they die if they can catch them alone with a heart attack dart, takes control of their vehicle and smashes it into a traffic light, and makes their engine sputter in mid-flight so they crash into the ocean. Yep those guys...

but I read a couple days back a thread that had a list of 4 charges from 2013 against Brown,

It turned out that those charges were against a different Mike Brown.

Proof finally comes: The Feds WANTED these riots. The one thing that would have proven Brown's culpability, the Feds wanted suppressed.

Our government is waging war on US.

I suspect that many of the younger policemen served in the US Armed Forces prior to obtaining their current positions.

So the JustUs Department didn’t want anything to mess up their little narrative of the killing of an innocent, college bound, altruistic black youth killed by the man.

You're being WAY too generous here. Respectfully ...

I'd bet good money that Obama/Holder Justice Dept. was spooling up part of the "investigation" where the tape would have been taken into Federal custody. And never would have seen the light of day. Ever.

Probably would have been "lost". Just like the Lerner emails, Obamacare meeting notes, etc. Would have made railroading the cop as a sacrificial lamb SOOO much easier.

The local PD did exactly the right thing here. Its out, and it's never going back in it's bottle. It's a little thing called "transparency", something that the Obama Admin likes to claim it's all in favor of. But never really practices.

And protects people who illegally discloses privileged tax information of their political opponents.

Like my brother says, it’s like kids in a classroom. The teacher tells them they can’t chew gum in class until one day they see the teacher chewing gum and their response is “Oh it must be OK then” so then they chew gum. The thinking is “Oh if the authority can break the law then we can too” so they loot and steal. They could care less about Michael Brown being shot. If they did, they would be out protesting every day every time a black got shot from anybody.

“inflame racial tensions” = interfere with our desperate attempt to motivate at least a few African-Americans to show up and vote Democrat this November.

" no one ever ever loots over every white guy killed by cops...

There's no money in it or elections (power) to be won over it.

“The city is 67% black but only three members of the 53-member police force there are African-American.”

Maybe black officers know how dangerous Ferguson is and don't want to work there.

““If you could have been here last night at the QuikTrip where this whole thing took place; like 5,000 people showed up here at 11, stayed till 5 a.m. Not a shot was fired. It was peaceful,” he said.”

Yeah, we saw the video this morning. It was ‘peaceful’ because the liberal cops the RAT governor called in, stood around with their thumb in their ass and their mind in Arkansas while the looters cleaned out the stores.

Oh yeah. . .can’t have facts and reality intrude as such things are irrelevant to race-hustlers—like holder, obama, the usual ignorant and evil suspects that show up at these things.

I saw a bit on CNN with Don Lemon and 3 other black panelists

The female, who was some sort of govt attorney(i.e, an “affirmative action” beneficiary) was moaning about how unsafe it was now for her son(s) in light of Thugvon and now this.

LOL. Lady, if anything you should be worried about, is your kid’s peer group. But hey, keep on with the divisive BS and excuse making.
