Justice Dept mandates 'implicit bias' training for agents, lawyers By Julia Edwards

WASHINGTON The U.S. Justice Department announced on Monday that more than 33,000 federal agents and prosecutors will receive training aimed at preventing unconscious bias from influencing their law enforcement decisions.

The training will bring Justice Department employees in line with many local police departments across the country that have implemented bias prevention plans following a spate of shootings of unarmed black men by white police officers.

Nationwide protests following those shootings blamed police bias for unnecessary use of force against minorities.

The department had been criticized for not developing its own policies to combat bias after recommending local police do so at the direction of a task force created by President Barack Obama after riots in 2014 in Ferguson, Missouri.

In a memo to Justice Department employees, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates said the program targets "implicit biases" - subtle, unconscious stereotypes or characterizations nearly everyone makes about certain groups of people.

Unless they are White, Christian, or Jewish, they are innocent and to be left alone.

It will be such a relief when they finally just cut to the chase and start chanting “Kill Whitey.”

Just in case you believe every crime statistic in existence and feel that Blacks commit more crime than Whites, you’d better get your mind right.

Who you gonna believe, the government or your lying eyes?

I guess it’s becoming more and more apparent as to why U.S. government employees don’t have the time to do their jobs. They’ve got too many commie ‘RAT brainwashing and programming sessions they are required to attend.

Murder capital USA is Chicago. When was the last time whitey killed someone there? How many BLM gangstas killed a little kid in a drive by? I’m guessing just last weekend.

Let’s try this from the other direction.

“We are training you to consciously avoid any natural tendencies to notice suspicious activity from only certain races of potential threats.”

or...

“Try not to pay any attention to the type of people that statistically are most likely to perpetrate mass killings.”

The Lynch lawyer found out that some of her lawyers weren’t properly biased. So she has instituted training to indoctrinate all of them to be anti-MAWG.

The DOJ is supposed to be implementing court-ordered ethics training. So what is the status of that?

Don’t be too surprised if they hire Lois Lerner to teach the course.

The person who President Trump names as new AG is going to be occupied the first four years just fixing the damage Obamariods have done. Pretty much the same situation in most of the gubmint.

Loretta Lynch told the Judge to stuff his order where the sun doesn't shine. Her and her staff want nothing to do with ethics.

As the concept flows through the government, more agencies are getting on the bandwagon.

The Parks Department is testing a new phrase to put up on signs.

"GO AHEAD. FEED THE BEARS."
