Holder Says He’s ‘Prepared’ To Dismantle Ferguson Police Department If Necessary
By Katie Zezima March 6
Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday the Department of Justice is ready to take any and all steps that are needed to reform the Ferguson, Mo., police department, including the potential dismantling of the force.
Speaking to reporters at Andrews Air Force Base after a trip to South Carolina with President Obama, Holder said he was stunned by what the investigation uncovered, and will go to all necessary lengths to address racial bias and other systemic issues within the force. A Department of Justice report released Wednesday showed the police department demonstrated a pattern of racial bias and committed constitutional violations.
"We are prepared to use all the powers that we have, all the power that we have, to ensure that the situation changes there. That means everything from working with them to coming up with an entirely new structure," Holder said. When asked if that included dismantling the department, he said, "If that's what's necessary, we're prepared to do that."
Holder said he was "shocked" -- surprised was "not a strong enough word," he said -- by the number of people who were mistreated by the department, and the breadth of the abuses.

Nixon?
Couple of weeks of the Blue Flu ... then see whether the good citizens of Ferguson are still complaining. If they are, dismantle the police department, reassign officers to other departments or allow them to seek employment elsewhere and let Ferguson rot.
They weren’t happy destroying the life of Darren Wilson. Now they want to destroy the lives of every cop in Ferguson.
Someone needs to put an end to this abuse. Someone needs to stand up to these fascists.
Go ahead. The good citizens of Ferguson don’t need police anyway.
Holder resigned. He did so several months ago. It is a slow motion resignation. He has more final tours than the Who.
Do it!!!!
The PD should resign enmasse. ‘Course that would be unfair to the law abiding citizens of the town.
Holder is a dishonest sack of S with a racial grudge. I can forgive an idiot but not a liar. Holder is the latter and has earned my full contempt.
We are prepared to use all the powers that we have, all the power that we have, to ensure that the situation changes there. That means everything from working with them to coming up with an entirely new structure,” Holder said
changes mean not arresting criminals who are black???
The population is majority black so more blacks will be arrested than whites.
The law abiding Ferguson citizens will need to protect themselves with guns since the govt is signaling it wants less law enforcement now.
Destruction is the Obama regime’s middle name. Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!
Hey, here’s where thy can get fresh recruits:

Again do it. Your people destroy everything they touch. Let the town burn.
I thought it’s a city/state thing not federal. Are cops now under federal control?
“The guy who got his store robbed by the thug Michael Brown, he also got his store destroyed later on during the riots and looting. What did he do wrong?”
He expected a black guy to pay for something; apparently he didn’t get the reparations memo.
How about going after those who lied about Brown’s hands being up? You know, those people who lied under oath... The ones that instigated riots that caused millions in damages and injuries all for a lie. How about a little justice there?
Oh that’s right, you’re a race baiting liar too and aren’t interested in that...
Might be unconstitutional, but when has the constitution ever stopped the Obamatons from doing what they wanted?
Just throw the people of Ferguson to the Dogs and finish it off
