Joe Biden this weekend tied the 2014 shooting death of Ferguson, Missouri, resident Michael Brown to the need to tackle systemic racism and corrupt law enforcement.
It is puzzling that he would link the one to the others, considering the Department of Justice under his boss, former President Barack Obama, concluded that Brown was no victim. Rather, the 18-year-old black man was killed in the act of attacking a police officer and trying to take away his gun.
It's been six years since Michael Brown's life was taken in Ferguson reigniting a movement, said the former vice president on the sixth anniversary of Browns death. We must continue the work of tackling systemic racism and reforming policing.
Again, Obama's Justice Department found that there was no credible evidence to support the claim that the white officer, Darren Wilson, had done anything illegal when he shot and killed Brown. Rather, its independent investigation found Wilson had acted in self-defense.
So, why release a statement on the sixth anniversary of the justifiable shooting death of Brown and tie it to systemic racism and reforming policing? What is Biden doing, if not deliberately inflaming passions and whipping up resentment?
The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee seems to be playing footsie with the popular and false assertion that led to the torching of Ferguson at the time that Wilson had murdered Brown. It is a lie, and a persistent one at that. Other top-tier Democratic officials, including Sens. Kamala Harris of California and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, have helped spread this bit of fake news, too. And they know what they are doing when they spread it.
Harris said in August 2019, Michael Browns murder forever changed Ferguson and America. His tragic death sparked a desperately needed conversation and a nationwide movement.

Something must be happening. Our Senator, Casey of Pennsylvania, just tweeted about Michael Brown.
The messaging is straight from BLM, not the DNC.
This stupid narrative needs to be buried right next to Brown.
All this Biden statement tells me is that he is very concerned about the Black vote.
More like systemic ATTITUDE and BEHAVIOR on Brown’s part.
A variation on Joe’s “a drunk driver killed my wife and daughter” lie.
What about biden’s problem with systemic sniffing? The amount of distractions they have going on right now to take attention off their cheating is ridiculous.

Sorry, Im having issues finding a video where Joe Biden says this. Looks like someone may have typed this on his Twitter account.
Classic. D
