This will turn out well.

I hope he gets hit with a tear gas canister.

It's surreal that Vivian Malone's brother-in-law is being thrust into a flashpoint involving many of the same elements of her famous encounter 51 years ago - national guardsmen, state police, violence, racial tension, mistust, rioters, etc.

I hear this and I think of the scene from 48 Hrs where Eddie Murphy is rousting the redneck bar while pretending to be a cop.
"Well let's see *throws shot glass* what we can frick with next!"

Dear Eric....You don't wanna go there, buddy.

I'm sure he will be fair and help heal the wounds of a community.

Did this involve aliens?

I'm not sure what that means. I'm not assigning blame. Do you deny that there's plenty of racial tension in the air in Ferguson?

I say again: What right does the Federal Government have to get involved in state and local cases? I understand the "civil rights violation" angle, but surely there is a due process to determine if a civil rights violation took place, right?

Hopefully, Holder can use his street-cred to bring the temperature down in Ferguson a few degrees. I guarantee you that neither he nor Obama want this thing explode on their watch.

this is why he was being sent.
now if holder (or other delegate) didn't go, the right would say - obama ignores situation in ferguson.

Not necessarily true.
They just don't want the *blame* for this if it explodes on their watch. They'll want to lay it at the feet of anyone but themselves.
MO Gov. Jay Nixon better watch out for knives going into his back if this goes sideways.

I hope so to but he usually uses his street cred to pit one side against the other and galvanize the resolve of the opposing parties, so forgive me for being skeptical.

Does Holder actually have street cred?? He sounds whiter than Joe Biden when he speaks .....

You sound like a real expert on Black authenticity.

This sounds like something Kanya West would have said about W. The idea that ANY President would get any sort of joy out of racially-tinged violence is something that only fool would believe.

Yes an investigation by the FBI

If I hope his plane augers into the ground, does that make me a bad person?
