Of course the DOJ does not want better community relations. They want turmoil, protests, demonstrations, and a little rioting wouldn’t hurt. They want to investigate the local government and police department, radically transform the force, impose Federal solutions and oversight, and assure another step toward a national police loyal to Washington, DC. If this had been a black on white crime, they this story would have already been buried and ignored.
SC pingaling
Amazing to watch them try to spin a story from this. A white guy shot a black guy in the back and killed him. The white guy is in custody and charged with murder, possible death penalty. This is exactly how the justice system should work.
Media everywhere talks about the “white” police officer killing the “unarmed black” man. Try getting them to mention race when the races are reversed or when its the far more common black on black murders. Has anyone every heard the media say, “a black man killed an unarmed white man today,” yet it happens nearly every day somewhere in America. I would have a lot more sympathy for the most recent black victim if there was a uniform response to all murders and not the volcano of indignation every time a white kills a black and stone cold silence when it happens the other way around.
I am amazed by the quick Investigation and incarceration. This is exactly how situations like this should be handled. The family of the victim will see this in court. The shooter will face a jury. The police chief and mayor performed admirably.
“It has been reported that the Justice Department has also launched a civil-rights investigation.”
Eric “The Red” Holder best be careful in South Carolina, because the state has an anti-Klan law. It’s used to arrest and convict agitators who stir up racial riots in the state. Blacks have been charged under the anti-Klan law, and it drives the black agitators bat-chit crazy when their community activists are sent to prison under the anti-Klan laws.
The author is naive. Obama wants race wars.
Because Black Lives Matter (TM)...in those rare instances when they’re shot by a rogue white policeman. As opposed to those everyday instances when they shoot one another, then they don’t seem to matter nearly so much to Obama’s justice department or the Al Sharptons out there.
