- August 26, 2014 Is Eric Holder Trying to Railroad Ferguson Cop? Attorney General Eric Holder... evidence suggests his ulterior motive was to conduct the groundwork for a criminal indictment against a white police officer, Darren Wilson...Holder is no model of impartiality. Upon arrival, he stated at Florissant Valley Community College: "I am the attorney general of the United States. But I am also a black man."..Holder, who had been deputy attorney general during the second Clinton administration, has made it his mission to bend or break the law in order to achieve his radical egalitarian ideal of justice. It is a radicalism laden with a sense of racial payback. It is no coincidence that President Obama and Attorney General Holder are allies of Al Sharpton... Holder badly wants a white trophy defendant... It is almost unthinkable that an attorney general, regardless of political views, could express no support for Wilson, not to mention the rest of the Ferguson police force... "unarmed." thoroughly misleading. Thousands of crimes are committed in the U.S. each month without the benefit of a gun, knife, blunt object or other weapon. Hands and feet can be lethal...there is no evidence that Officer Wilson fired any shots while Brown was stationary and raising his arms in surrender... Holder assigned 40 FBI agents to the case, plus numerous prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney's Office in St. Louis... lot of firepower for what amounts to an act of police self-defense.
