Whether Holder has the authority or not to disband the Ferguson police force (and I don't think he has) is not the immediate question.

Imagine what the police officers and their families are going through right now. Will a 40 or 50-ish dad with years invested in the service of the Ferguson PD have a job a couple months from now? What about his pension and benefits on which the spouse and kids depend? How are mortgage payments and other bills going to be paid? Would he be able to get another job at his age, in this Obama economy...... and he being "from racist Ferguson"?

Some of you have gone through this gut-wrenching experience at one time or another. It's no fun...in fact, in can cause protracted worry and even illness.....not to mention going into near poverty.

Put yourself in the shoes of these police officers. Holder doesn't care about them and their families one way or the other...as he leads the cushy life in his imported Italian shoes.

The Attorney General is a sadistic Torquemada now holding a sword of Damocles over the heads of these law enforcement men and women for who knows how long.

.....and ISIS is supposed to be the premier torture organization of the day, yeah.

Good afternoon lovely lady. I hope you are doing better.

We haven't gotten together in a long while.

The 0bama regime has become extra-constitutional. They have zero authority over the Ferguson PD, but the rule of law doesn't seem to matter.

If somehow the regime is successful, the county sheriff is then the highest law in the area/county.

We shall see what happens, or more importantly, what people/municipalities/state government will allow the regime to do.
