The DOJ shouldn't have released the Ferguson Report (Updated)

"Your sense of freedom is as pale as your skin,"- TchĂ©ky Karyo (as Major Jean Villeneuve) in the 2000 Mel Gibson movie The SlaveOwner... err, The Patriot
The reason the Department of Justice and Attorney General Eric Holder should not have released the Report on Ferguson, MO is because it upset the narrative that's been sold to the American People; that it doesn't matter who you are, everyone in America is treated the same and has a fair shot.

I know many Officers, including several I work with who wished to treat the Michael Brown shooting as a singular event, which occurred ex nihilo, ignoring the years long mistreatment of the black community by the Ferguson Police Officers.

The behavior of the Officers in the DOJ report is shameful and brings dishonor upon all Police Officers for the criminal actions by those Officers and their superiors, who endorsed and encouraged said behavior.

That the FPD was used as a revenue generating arm of the local government is not surprising but, the collective shrug from conservatives is telling. The vast majority of conservatives treated the DOJ report with indifference because they agree with the way Ferguson treated minorities. They agree with using Police to nickel-and-dime the local residents as a way of filling budget gaps.

Conservatives agree with treating black people as guilty until proved innocent and with detaining, citing and fining them for the crime of Living While Black.

Of course some scumbag went and shot two Police Officers, and thus the focus is shifted, from the abuses of the Local Government and Ferguson Police so the System can avoid accountablility.

Conservatives leapt upon the shooting because right-wingers use people to advance their inhuman system of despicable evil, and rolled out the NYPD playbook of blaming the shooting of the Officers on Eric Holder, Al Sharpton, and the President. And thererfore, the Right-Wing Internet Fart Bubble all got on board and blamed the Protestors. Thus, allowing the substance of the Department of Justice Report to slide into the recesses of the internet memory hole.

A suspect has been arrested, apparently admitted to the shooting, and has been charged. But, not with attempted murder because the suspect wasn't shooting at the Cops, who were hit at a range of 125 yards. Even Darren Wilson's Defense Attorney, St. Louis County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch was forced to admit the evidence did not support attempted murder charges as the suspect was charged with several lesser offenses.

Of course, this hasn't stopped the bleatings of the Right-Wing internet echo chamber which exists only to regurgitate each others incestuous farts.

As always the key is to ignore the bleatings of conservatives, who never add anything substantive to American Politics but, merely pout, flop, and wail like raw nippled chicken-little/chicken-hawks.

Conservative do naught but sow discontent, afflict the afflicted, comfort the comfortable and undermine the 99%. That's what conservatives do, that is the core essence of Conservatism today.

And we see once again, in the response to the abuses in Ferguson, that Conservatives agree with using the awesome power of Government to harass, impoverish, detain, arrest, and imprison minorities because Conservatives believe 98% of Black and Brown people are criminals.

Missouri Lt. Gov Pete Kinder retreated into right-wing meta-bigotry that Democrats are the real racists, "There is more racism in the Justice Department than there is in anywhere I see in the St. Louis area. It is the left. It is the Eric Holder and Obama-left and their minions who are obsessed with race, while the rest of us are moving on beyond it." AG Eric Holder was correct years ago when he noted Americans are cowards when it comes to talking about Race.

Mitt Romney and the New American Revolution

"One of the ways my sons are showing support for the nation is helping me get elected. Because they think I'd make a great President." - W. Mitt Romney on why his 5 sons are too valuable to risk serving in the military.

However, He Wants You!

So, Willard Mitt Romney is again appropriating language of the American Revolution to make his point on how he should be the Next President. In May 2009, Romney treasonously incited sedition against the lawfully elected US Government and stated, "We are the party of the revolutionaries, they [Democrats] are the party of the monarchists," he told the overwhelmingly Republican crowd, saying the Republicans needed to "once again lead the American Revolution."

Now, in supporting Senator-elect Brown Romney declared the Democrats are acting as a "kind of a Neo-Monarchy if you will..." and "the people ought to run this country not these Royalists in Washington."

It's unbelievable, Romney is The Dauphin of the Republican Aristocratic Kleptocracy, as the Son of a Governor and Presidential Candidate and then a life long college student, draft dodger, "hard working" consultant and now professional politician. Romney has never done an honest days worth of work in his life opting instead to be a professional socialist, a bureaucrat through and through who has lived his life of leisure and largess at the expense of the American Taxpayer. Fittingly as a Republican he is also a Chicken Hawk, bravely wanting to risk the lives of other men's sons while his sons sacrifice for America by trying to get him elected President. His perfect hair is greased with the oily drippings of his rank cowardice.

But, not only does Romney hate Military Service Members and the American Electoral Process and wish for violent overthrow of the Government, He Hates American Compaines as well.

Mitt Romney longingly pinned for Toyota when he penned his magnificent Op-Ed Let Detroit Go Bankrupt, writing:
Ford, for example, needs to cut $2,000 worth of features and quality out of its Taurus to compete with Toyota’s Avalon. Of course the Avalon feels like a better product
Romney further blamed the American worker for not dying quickly enough for Romney's tastes,
First, their huge disadvantage in costs relative to foreign brands must be eliminated. That means new labor agreements to align pay and benefits to match those of workers at competitors like BMW, Honda, Nissan and Toyota. Furthermore, retiree benefits must be reduced.
Romney wants American workers to make less and die quickly after their working years have been used up. He gleefully hoped for the destruction of Detroit and the elimination of jobs and retiree benefits. Of course, Romney's is the child of a Politician and "worked" as a politician himself so he doesn't need to worry about where his benefits come from...

Romney, like All Republicans hates America and American Citizens. Romney is Evil, a Coward, a Chicken Hawk, and a Kleptocrat. I.E. the perfect Republican.

But, he thinks he's pulling an impressive Coup by using the language the Teabagging Bigots love. And maybe he is. Because the deluded abused fools who proclaim they are conservative and support the Debauched Republican Party love two things: being lied to and fearmongering.

Unfortunately, with the victory by Senator-Elect Brown in Massachusetts the Republicans are feeling resurgent; sensing possible victories in 2010.

Well, the Democrats have only themselves to blame. If they had not played nice nice with the Republican Party they could have achieved some legislative successes. But, the Republican only understand and desire Power and will never work with the Democrats to help America. The Republican Goal has always been to take control of Government and use it to destroy and impoverish the American People because Republicans are the party of American Killing Money Grubbing Psychopaths and the victory in Massachusetts gives them a chance at regaining leverage over the American people.
