Authored by Eric Holder, via The St.Louis Post-Dispatch,

Since the Aug. 9 shooting death of Michael Brown, the nation and the world have witnessed the unrest that has gripped Ferguson, Mo. At the core of these demonstrations is a demand for answers about the circumstances of this young man’s death and a broader concern about the state of our criminal justice system.

At a time when so much may seem uncertain, the people of Ferguson can have confidence that the Justice Department intends to learn - in a fair and thorough manner - exactly what happened.

Today, I will be in Ferguson to be briefed on the federal civil rights investigation that I have closely monitored since I launched it more than one week ago. I will meet personally with community leaders, FBI investigators and federal prosecutors from the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division and the U.S. Attorney’s Office to receive detailed briefings on the status of this case.

The full resources of the Department of Justice have been committed to the investigation into Michael Brown’s death. This inquiry will take time to complete, but we have already taken significant steps. Approximately 40 FBI agents and some of the Civil Rights Division’s most experienced prosecutors have been deployed to lead this process, with the assistance of the United States Attorney in St. Louis. Hundreds of people have already been interviewed in connection with this matter. On Monday, at my direction, a team of federal medical examiners conducted an independent autopsy.

We understand the need for an independent investigation, and we hope that the independence and thoroughness of our investigation will bring some measure of calm to the tensions in Ferguson. In order to begin the healing process, however,

Maybe this will split the activist black community there. Half will be eager to see Holder try to sell Whitey down the river, half will despair at what an incompetent job he does at that if the Treyvon affair is any indication.

Buy more stock in Orville Redenbacher, please.

This jerk has more FBI agents looking at the thug’s death than he does Lois Lerner.

“As you all know, I have brought with me a posse of 40 Federal Agents and a rope. Now if you good people can just point me to a sturdy tree, I think we can bring you the justice you all are asking for. Now, where is that white guy?” Eric Holder

40 FBI agents who will turn in reports contradicting Brown’s supporters’ verion of the events which will then be destroyed. Meanwhile Wilson will be found guilty of being white and not taking a beatdown from a thug and forced to leave his job and move abroad.

His people are the thugs and looters that comprise his army of useful idiots leading the nation to civil war and the creation of the federalized totalitarian state.

Tyler has a future in stand up comedy with lines like that.

This is my pledge to the people of Ferguson: Our investigation into this matter will be full, it will be fair, and it will be independent. And beyond the investigation itself, we will work with the police, civil rights leaders, and members of the public to ensure that this tragedy can give rise to new understanding — and robust action — aimed at bridging persistent gaps between law enforcement officials and the communities we serve.

What "persistent gaps" is this lackey talking about?
