Eric Holder is going to hate this.
The same day the Attorney General was condemning the underlying attitudes, mistaken beliefs and stereotypes that create racial strife, the City of Indianapolis was implementing the single largest case of racial profiling in the history of this country.
This Friday and Saturday night, the streets of downtown Indianapolis will be full from some of the 250,000 black people attending the annual Indiana Black Expo.
Much like George Zimmerman knew that black people were responsible for a crime wave in his town, city officials know the Black Expo has a ten-year history of intense and frequent violence and lawlessness.
So they are getting ready for more. That is racial profiling.
The summer of 2010 was probably the worst. After the Black Expo let out for the evening, thousands of black people hit the streets of downtown. Chaos and violence followed. At least ten people were shot. A lot more were rampaging through downtown, destroying property and creating mayhem.
A lot of it was captured on video. All just a few weeks after Al Sharpton himself appeared in Indianapolis to complain about racist police.
And it is not just the Black Expo: Downtown Indianapolis has been the site of dozens of cases of large-scale black mob violence over the last three years....

Disgusting, but prudent. Race is a great deal of it, but so is the event. Extra security is warranted at biker conventions, too.
Looks like they are
“disproportionately represented”
and there is a
“disparate impact” by race...
Sounds like racism is the cause of those stats...
(I think I got the leftist/racist pretzel logic right)

Larry Elder gave the numbers out...
Also here’s some other stats from a liberal (Richard Cohen) writing for a liberal paper - the Washington Post.
The ONLY chance we have of making racial situations better is to deal with statistics honestly... the truth is that all people who have a clue should be concerned about young black men.
Me thinks I should have posted the sarcasm tag
You’re going to love the Liar in Chiefs missive on trayvon today then. He is execusing the way many in the black community are reacting to the verdict because of their unfair treatment in the past.
If Trayvon had been 200 years old - or even 60 years old he might have a case. But Travon was 17. I doubt he experienced much of the Jim Crow laws living in Florida in 2013...
A local church will have an “event” in honor of Travon tomorrow. Not sure if it is a part the the Sharpton protests.
