What do you expect, that's one of Holders People.
Another very important reason to get Consevtatives to take over the Senate, because if we don't, Eric Holder will be a Supreme Court justice before this POS President leaves office. Think about that.
Regardless who's elected, I sure as hell hope Holder's not AG or any other position where he can screw things up after this term.

The folks on the street want an arrest and a trial, and now that Ron Johnson has been made the face of the police, he's going have a difficult job if he's put in the position of announcing that no charges will be filed.
I would not want to be in his position. Talk about a "no win"...

CNN (yes I was watching the race baiting/pandering channel) had an ex teacher this afternoon. He said he taught him at an "alternative school". Not knowing Mizzou I have no idea if it's similar to LA (dropouts/too old/trouble kids). Of course he said he was a great kid etc... Maybe he was at that school, but CNN wouldn't interview anyone that portrayed him negatively.
Good point. I'm guessing the reason he was in the "alternative school" in the first place was due to his behavior.

The second autopsy will show Brown had Ebola.

On what grounds? Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but the only thing the Feds can investigate in this case is whether Browns civil rights were violated.
The "Murder" was not a Federal crime and they have no jurisdiction.
Deprivation of the right to life under color of law is a federal crime. Its what the Danziger Bridge Massacre pigs were prosecuted under.

civil rights
The only abuse I have witnessed is the riotous behaviors of others.
I thought I had seen written testimony or account of the events leading to this young man's death, was there was a protest of sorts, demonstration, that evolved into he and his peers, going into and robing a store? Am I wrong with this?

However, the New York Times, reporting on the same independent autopsy, reported that two of the bullets struck Brown in the head. The other four struck him in the right arm -- and all six were fired into his front.
Why did the witnesses lie? (The above is from cnn)

No. The robbery had nothing to do with any civil rights protest. That was just business as usual.

For real? A third?
Autopsy till they get the answer they want...

So the third interpretation will be the right one?

Would you refer the OJ celebrations as widespread?
Yes, yes I would. I recall celebrations all over the nation when that verdict was announced. I don't recall a single celebration over MLKs death - not one. Maybe I don't hang out around KKKers as apparently you do.
More to the point - I had eight employees in my photography studio at the time of the OJ verdict. One of them was black. She was a very refined upstanding lady - her husband had a good job and they were wonderful parents to a precocious child. I happened to be looking in her direction when the verdict was announced and while the rest of the office reacted with shocked expressions she smiled very contentedly and avoided eye contact. I was never so disappointed in my life at seeing her reaction.
So yes - the celebration of the OJ verdict was widespread and reached into non-ghetto areas.
Again, I don't recall a single celebratory comment about MLK.

The one that shows the officer was a hardcore racist.
That is the only correct answer here...

I guess perception is in the eyes of the beholder, but the only celebrations that I witnessed after the OJ verdict were on TV, while after MLK was assassinated, White folks could be seen riding down the street honking their horns and waving Confederate flags. Older Black folks still talk about it talk about it, but I guess you were a lot more likely to be oblivious to it if you were White. If cable news had existed back then, I'm sure there would have been a lot of footage of it. And let's not forget that there a huge difference between reactions to murder and reactions a jury verdict. No one in the Black community celebrated the murder of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.

Personally, I had no reaction, but do you really consider a smile to be a celebration? Really? How was that any different than your expression of shock? It sounds like no one in your office had any sort of verbal reaction to the verdict, but you were disappointed because her facial expression differed from yours. You seemed to be pissed that she agreed with a verdict that it took a mixed jury (9 Blacks, 3 Whites) only two hours to reach. I don't get it.

I will never forget, as long as I live, being one of the few whiteys in the dorm I lived in in college. I was in my room when the verdict was announced and my entire dorm went nuts. There was a party all night. I got no sleep. LOL
