And he has hated the justice system since that time. He is the WORST person ever given a cabinet position. DOJ is the icing on the cake for him!
Holder is a truly evil individual. The fact that Obama chose him and he was confirmed is proof of a sinister conspiracy in Washington.

Holder's right ... he got racially profiled through Columbia University Law School ... out of the public defenders job for which he's barely qualified ... and into a gig as Attorney General.

Yes, I know that happens, but how is that applicable to this situation? Big Mike and friend were walking down the middle of the street when they were stopped. No big deal, right? Well, my hometown has changed to majority black. There are still some of the old-timers there, whom I have known since childhood, who can’t move out because they can’t get enough for their houses to buy another house somewhere else. Or, they can’t even get a buyer for their houses because what was once a nice, blue-collar neighborhood, has turned into a wasteland of burned-out and abandoned houses. They talk about the black kids walking down the street and blocking it, and they see it as intimidation. But they’re just old white crackahs, so what does it matter?

“He told the story about how he was humiliated. They got him out of his car and searched his car,”

First off, can he prove that he was racially profiled?

I've been pulled over for doing nothing wrong and had my car searched. Granted it is irritating for sure. But unless they were profiling white dudes that day I can't say I was racially profiled or profiled for any reason for that matter.

Holder is nothing more than a jerk and race baiter with a chip on his shoulder.

LOL, Holder... where is my tiny violin ?

i was profiled as a cigarette smuggler at the canadian border and had my car searched, along with my parent’s luggage.

it’s just part of life.

I guess i should have become outraged, grabbed for the border guard’s pistol, and rioted in the village of Magog.

I got profiled when I was in Colorado because I had MN license plates! Cops told me they thought it was odd I was going through their small town.

The students told Holder that police are more likely to pull over a young black driver behind the wheel of a tricked-out car than someone driving a Mercedes-Benz.

Cry me a river! Next thing, they will be telling us that someone is more likely to get hired if they go to a job interview wearing respectable business attire than with saggy pants displaying their butt crack.

We need to outlaw that type of profiling as well!

Jun 28, 2012 - The House voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress over his failure to turn over documents related to the Fast & Furious.

Holder should have been removed from office two years ago.

The perception of police brutality has been a huge bugaboo for generations among the black nationalists, Black Panthers, and NOI. That doesn’t make it real, or unjustified in the case of Michael Brown, because most of the time the police are just doing their job.

But police brutality is a big part of the mythology they are taught to accept, along with the unfairness of the “white man’s law” when they think they should get a pass on everything because they are black.

Remember, Holder also wants to review a bunch of prison cases because they had white juries or something.

Like they say: it’s a black thing, you wouldn’t understand.

relayed a story about being stopped on the New Jersey Turnpike despite not breaking any laws.

Has that been verified, or might it be like so many of those personal anecdotes told by Slick Willie, Hillary, Obama and most any Dim in an attempt to relate to their audiences in the most personal way possible?

And, so what, I've been stopped for no reason other than having an out-of-state tag in a state 1,200 miles from home. Ran all sorts of checks on me, then let me ago after about twenty minutes.

Probably.

And back in the day the NJ Troopers did a he# of a job of drug interdiction along the “cocaine corridor”...using “profiling”.
