Attorney General Eric Holder will be in Ferguson, Missouri, on Wednesday to meet with FBI and law enforcement officials, as well as community leaders, although it's unclear what effect he will have on the tinderbox the northern St. Louis suburbs have become — especially after local cops on Tuesday shot and killed a second young black man in as many weeks.
Holder hasn't commented on the second shooting. He is making the trip primarily to meet with the principal players surrounding the shooting of Michael Brown, the black 18-year-old gunned down by a white Ferguson police officer on Aug. 9.
n a statement announcing his trip to the region, Holder said Monday, "I intend to meet with FBI investigators and prosecutors on the ground from the Civil Rights Division and U.S. Attorney's Office officials about the ongoing investigation."
Holder also said he found "the selective release of sensitive information" in the case "troubling."
And in a "Message to the people of Ferguson" posted on the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's website Tuesday, Holder put his mission bluntly:
"This is my pledge to the people of Ferguson: Our investigation into this matter will be full, it will be fair, and it will be independent. And beyond the investigation itself, we will work with the police, civil rights leaders, and members of the public to ensure that this tragedy can give rise to new understanding — and robust action — aimed at bridging persistent gaps between law enforcement officials and the communities we serve. Long after the events of Aug. 9 have receded from the headlines, the Justice Department will continue to stand with this community."

Michael Brown symbolizes the system’s (white man’s) unjust treatment of the black man. All that matters now is maintaining and magnifying the symbolism. Who and what Michael Brown was, or whether or not his death was an event of injustice, is of no consequence. Holder is going to Ferguson to give the regime’s stamp of approval to the symbolism, and to intensify the anger that drives it. Innocence, guilt, real justice, or Wilson’s life don’t matter now, especially to Holder.
Hew could trip and fracture his neck. I guess that would be an accomplishment. I hope that doesn’t happen.
The only thing Holder can accomplish is to throw kerosene on the fire. Maybe visit a car wash and rib shack with Rev Al and have a voter registration drive. After all, the monolithic block is 110 per cent RAT.
Racial Chaos would be my answer.
He has already stated it: he wants more blacks as cops.
This is simply affirmative action in naked form.
My question is: what possible rationale exists to take less qualified people to protect citizens?
The only motivator has to be not less dead people resisting arrest, it would be exoneration of a cop because he is black and one cannot claim racial aspects as a motive if black on black killing occurs.
Just see Chicago.
Holder wears Blinders ,so
What can Holder do?
No doubt he’s bringing a tanker FULL of gasoline to spray all over this fire.
Come on, it’s Eric ‘the panther’ Holder we’re talking about!
He can get himself a new TV.
He’ll make sure his racist agenda is played out to the hilt.
