Eric Holder Is Not Exactly Known For Being Tough On Bad Cops

….This is the same man who was woefully soft on bad cops when he served as Washington, D.C.’s top prosecutor in the mid-1990s.

….[Holder] was part of the problem in D.C., not the solution.

….Police files and court records from a period coinciding with Holder’s tenure as Washington’s U.S. attorney revealed “a pattern of reckless and indiscriminate gunplay by officers sent into the streets with inadequate training and little oversight.”

“Washington’s officers fire their weapons at more than double the rate of police in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago or Miami,” the Post reported. In the five-year period before the investigation was published, D.C. police had fired at 54 moving cars, shot nine unarmed men on foot, and in 11 cases ruled shootings justified “despite eyewitness accounts or forensic evidence that contradicted officers.”

The DOJ, the Obama White House, and their spindoctors can all go fuck themselves. Holder’s civil rights record is a joke.
