DOJ Official Resigns After Being Ordered to Dismiss Case Against Black Panther Gangsters

J. Christian Adams was proud to be a Department of Justice attorney. He believed he was serving his country by prosecuting those who wished harm on others. He strongly believed in what he did. To this DoJ official, his profession wasn’t a job but a calling.

Until earlier this month when he suddenly resigned. The reason? His superiors told him to drop a case against the New Black Panther Party, even though the “case was the simplest and most obvious violation of federal law I saw in my Justice Department career.”

Reading Adams’ account of what happened, I can only conclude that little has changed since the days in which our own Editor-in-Chief David Horowitz became disgusted with the Left because it actively covered up the many (horrendous) crimes committed by the racist gangsters of the Black Panther Party.

Back to Adams’ case against the Panthers. Here’s what happened back in 2008:

On the day President Obama was elected, armed men wearing the black berets and jackboots of the New Black Panther Party were stationed at the entrance to a polling place in Philadelphia. They brandished a weapon and intimidated voters and poll watchers.

It goes without saying that such behavior is illegal. That’s why the Department of Justice brought a case against the Black Panthers and those armed thugs after the election. Adams explains that he “and other Justice attorneys diligently pursued the case and obtained an entry of default after the defendants ignored the charges.” As said, all seemed to be going well, until their superiors suddenly ordered them to dismiss the case.

Adams:

Gawd forbid had these been white Tea Party members.

[HiTech RedNeck]

The official dropping of the case happened only this month? From news reports early this year it sounded like that happened much earlier.

“Gawd forbid had these been white Tea Party members.”

Or a couple of white kids filming ACORN corruption.

[Dallas59]

Racism!

[rawcatslyentist]

Or a couple of white kids filming Senatorial abdication of duty. Aka Landrieu sabotaged her own phone lines to avoid representing her constituency.

Teardown everything good in America and replace it with... WHAT? Vote these clowns out in November!

I’m starting to thing that in the real world Mordor has been victorious. God help the decent Americans who remain.

[freekitty]

It’s time to get these people out of our government. Some probably need to be in jail themselves.

[freekitty]

When these people are gone; they should be held accountable.

[flaglady47]

An attorney with integrity. He resigned when confronted with corruption. Too bad he can’t indict those who told him not to prosecute this case. DOJ criminals spawned by the corrupt Obama Admin.

[yorkie01]

When America is restored to its greatness, this needs to come back for justice to prevail.

Not Mordor, Isengard mayhap. Isengard by men can be defeated but we have no Frodo and Sam to defeat the Evil One. The great news is that the ring remains hidden.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

This just shows how foolish Holder and crew are. If they refuse to prosecute, when they are gone, whoever replaces them can go ahead full speed and send those Panthers “to hell across lots”.

What they should have done to kill it was to put it before a weakling federal judge, with little effort, convict and fine them $5 each. This would prevent any future prosecution.

[RoadTest]

This puts Little Lord Fauntleroy squarely into the mold of Adolph Hitler, jackboots and all.

[Oceander]

The silence of the liberals is deafening. GWB fires a bunch of at-will employess, aka assistant US attorneys, and the liberal hue and cry over the "injustice" is enormous - BHO drops a criminal case against individuals who intimidated, or attempted to intimidate, voters in Philly, and .... can't here a peep out of the left for all the crickets chirping.

“

“

Of course Obama’s Department of Justice won’t prosecute.
There was only solid photographic evidence of this outrage.
Obama can’t have this crime get publicity beyond FOX news.

“Although it [The New Black Panther Party] says it sees capitalism as the fundamental problem with the world and “revolution” as the solution, the new party does not draw its influences from Marxism or Maoism as the original party did. Instead, in a carefully-worded, roundabout form of ethnic nationalism,[8] they say that Marx based his ideology and teachings on indigenous African cultures, and that the NBPP therefore need not look to Marxism or Maoism as a basis for their program, but can look to ideologies that stem directly from those African origins.”

WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.

HANNITY: But I'm a — reverend

WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

So the United States government is willfully telling its law enforcement apparatus to let criminals go free.
Thus the people who swore to uphold the law and protect innocent individuals are helping lawbreakers.

[caseinpoint]

Seems to be two proceedings here. The initial complaint was ordered dismissed after the Black Panthers ignored it (no doubt with some advice from highly-placed friends) and let a default judgment happen.

Simply refusing to pursue a case is a favorite tactic of the Left which likes to pressure authorities to simply drop an awkward case. We saw that happen in California on its Proposition 187 passage, a law to limit benefits to illegals passed comfortably by the California voters. The State AG half-heartedly defended the proposition in court and a court ruled against this proposition, which is what it wanted. So shortly afterwards, a new administration came in and the AG simply neglected to appeal the case and the ruling against the proposition stood. They accomplished their purpose of killing the proposition passed by the voters of California without seeming to actively fight it.

I this case, it appears the Civil Rights Commission is investigating the DOJ because of its dismissal and has issued subpoenas to the lawyers involved in the DOJ case. (Wouldn’t surprise me if the Commission weren’t doing this half-heartedly itself.) But DOJ has ordered those attorneys to ignore the subpoenas from the Civil Rights Commission. This places the attorneys like Adams in a Catch 22 situation (which may have been the purpose in ordering them to ignore the subpoenas because doing so compromises them personally as well as the department and makes them as lawless as their boss). One of the ways to make sure good guys don’t squeal on you is to find ways to make them corrupt or feel corrupt also.

I guess, except for a select few, the DOJ is a department of cowards, led by the biggest coward/crook.

Who ordered them to drop the charges?

That person should be arrested. Was it Holder? Impeach/arrest him. Was it BO? Impeach/arrest him.

Gawd forbid had these been white Tea Party members.

This November try setting surveillance on a RAT dstrict polling place with nothing more than a video camera. But bring a bodyguard and a distant second cameraman to record the assault by leftist thugs that is sure to follow.

If the politics were reversed this would be on the front pages of the Washington Post and New York Times. Eff the MSM.
