What Attorney General Eric Holder Just Said About the Zimmerman Case
GretaWire - Fox News ^ | Monday, July 15, 2013 | Reported by Jake Gibson

Posted on 07/15/2013 9:39:47 AM PDT by kristinn

Sent to me by FNC colleague Jake Gibson:

There are the AG’s remarks at today’s Delta Sigma Theta sorority convention that will address Trayvon Martin / George Zimmerman

Of course, as this celebration unfolds, we are also mindful of the pain felt by our nation surrounding the tragic, unnecessary shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida last year – and the state trial that reached its conclusion over the weekend. As parents, as engaged citizens, and as leaders who stand vigilant against violence in communities across the country, the Deltas are deeply, and rightly, concerned about this case. The Justice Department shares your concern – I share your concern – and, as we first acknowledged last spring, we have opened an investigation into the matter.

Independent of the legal determination that will be made, I believe that this tragedy provides yet another opportunity for our nation to speak honestly about the complicated and emotionally-charged issues that this case has raised. We must not – as we have too often in the past – let this opportunity pass.

Is he taking this up before or after he seeks charges against OJ?

Let me get this straight...following a suspect through a crime-ridden neighborhood when you are uncertain of his race IS profiling....

But calling Zimmerman a WHITE Hispanic is NOT profiling?

Just think: if Trayvon Martin had beaten George Zimmerman to death, neither the media nor Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would care.

Holder was one of the top lawyers whom covered up the massacre at Waco, TX that involved the gassing, shooting, and burning alive of infants and children.

Holder has a long history of evil. Along history of using the Government to kill and injure citizens.

Never expect reason or morality to become a part of this Justice Department’s actions.

This is the dark age that your mother told you about. Act accordingly.

“When will it end? When will we step up and end it? Never? I’m beginning to wonder now.”

Never would be correct.

While “We” were too busy working our jobs, and taking care of our families to be out protesting, we have lost control of the language. I no longer have to wonder how an advanced, educated people would allow the rise of the like of the NAZI’s, I’m watching it in real time.

“Honestly, I would expect the Justice Department to proceed with charges against Zimmerman,”

LOTS of money and mileage still to be milked out of this by the Race Hustlers.

Meanwhie, how many Trayvon’s died in America’s Cities last night that the race hustlers and the major media don’t give a damn about?

“Did Holder happen to mention the case in New Jersey recently where the black home invader beat the crap out of a young white mother, and threw her down the stairs in front of her toddler children? I didn’t think so”

That doesn’t fit the narrative, and wouldn’t make the Poverty Pimps any MONEY.....

Those remarks and Bobo’s from yesterday read ‘no go’ on the Federal case, at least to me. Bobo knows a Fed case would go into 2014 and polarize both the white vote and potentially a slice of the Hispanic vote against the Democrats. This in a lame-duck mid-term election that electoral history destines Bobo to lose seats in both houses anyway.

Republicans can win over Hispanic American citizens if they back Zimmerman against holder's malicious prosecution. They can use this case to show how the democrats will stab them in the back with the race card.
