Recall that, in the Ferguson case, the Department of Justus opposed the release of the convenience store video showing the Gentle Giant roughing up the clerk and stealing cigars and Swisher Sweets.
The feds argued the video would further inflame tensions, but a calming effect is what a logical person would expect (i.e., maybe the Gentle Giant wasn't so gentle). Of course, their real aim was to increase black voter turnout in the upcoming 2014 election.
Obama, and liberals in general, are Tribal. They always put their tribe ahead of the truth.

That, and to make all the special little snowflakes keep thinking that they are at the bottom of the financial ladder because "The MAN" is keeping them down, not because they are ignorant, simpleminded and lazy.
They are just playing to the preferences of the Tribe.
