Nation Not Ready for “Race-Neutral” Civil Rights Holder Says
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 25 September 2010 | John Semmens

Posted on 09/25/2010 12:24:17 PM PDT by John Semmens

The claim by prosecutor Christopher Coates that the Obama Administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has injected racial bias into its enforcement efforts was brushed aside by Attorney General Eric Holder. The claim stems from the DOJ’s refusal to go ahead with a case of voter intimidation against the New Black Panther Party.

On Election Day in 2008 members of that Party were videotaped harassing white voters in Philadelphia. One of the harassers with a prior criminal record for assault, brandished a club.

Holder defended his Office’s refusal to prosecute saying that “the scales of justice have long been tilted in favor of whites persecuting blacks. Jim Crow laws and the Klan harassed more blacks in more places over more years than these Black Panthers did in just one year in only one city. We are sympathetic to the desire for payback.”

The Attorney General hastened to add that “African-Americans should not take this case as a ‘blank check.’ A little menacing is one thing. Even some bruises and bleeding might be acceptable. However, we draw the line at lynchings. We would likely have to press charges against anyone videotaped committing these crimes.”

Here’s to those who say we shouldn’t consider race as a factor when we vote.

It’s satire. Good satire is very difficult to spot — especially when reality is so unreal.

I will admit though, my bullshit meter was only at around 40-50%.

According to this AG reverse discrimination is perfectly fine. And Zero said that, “We can absorb another terrorist attack.”

We can only hope that these things happen to both of them and their families.

Holder’s use of the word “payback” says it all. Our whole government is based on “getting even” with white people.

Jim Crow laws and the Klan harassed more blacks in more places over more years than these Black Panthers did in just one year in only one city. We are sympathetic to the desire for payback.

I missed that chapter in The Constitution that explains how two wrongs make a right. The vast majority of white Americans weren't even alive during the heyday of The Klan. And there were no Jim Crow laws in Philadelphia, where the New Black Panthers intimidated white voters with impunity.

“African-Americans should not take this case as a ‘blank check.’

How should they take it, Eric? Are they allowed to lynch white northerners because 175 years ago, white southerners lynched blacks? Are they allowed to enslave white people, because some whites once enslaved some blacks? Or must they draw the line at voter intimidation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, because whites used to intimidate blacks in Philadelphia, Mississippi?

What Holder has stated is in direct contrast to his charge, as Attorney General of The United States, to uphold and defend The Constitution. He should be impeached immediately.

I get that it’s satire, but it’s tough to draw the line between fact and fiction these days, and I had to get my point across.

BS! I vote for the candidate’s beliefs, not their skin color. I’ve been working my butt off to get this fine Christian lady elected. To replace the 2 term obamabot there now.

GOP, Memphis Tea Party backed candidate she won 61% of the primary vote over 2 other male candidates.

What an outrageous statement for any law enforcement officer, let alone the Attorney General of the United States. And the bum in the White House just stands by.

Oh, just satire. But those are probably the precise thoughts of Holder and 0bummie. No wonder I was fooled.

“Even some bruises and bleeding might be acceptable.”

So, our venerable AG doesn't advocate or enforce law and order. Maybe Gibbs should call him to the WH and read him The Riot Act! Oops, did I say the White House? Gee, that’s racist!

Watch what you wish for, Holder. Things may not stop at that and you and your Barack Panthers will lose, BIG! You can take to a government bank!
