Is Eric Holder ignoring a Twitter lynch mob? It certainly appears that way.
Ever since George Zimmerman has been released on bail to await his 2nd degree murder trial for the killing of Trayvon Martin, Twitter threats have come "fast and furious". This should come as no great surprise to anyone, for these reasons:
1. While Zimmerman was in hiding for his life, the New Black Panther Party put a $10,000 bounty on his capture, and circulated a "Dead or Alive" poster.
2. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, whose office refused to prosecute the New Black Panthers for voter intimidation during the 2008 elections, again refused to prosecute this racist hate group for threatening George Zimmerman's life.
3. Many black Americans are in total agreement with the racist policies of the "Justice" Department under Eric Holder. They continue to seek vengeance for "400 years of oppression" from white people, and never stop to consider that they have become what they've hated--angry, racist vigilantees or vigilante sympathizers.
Twitter threats are not only being directed at George Zimmerman, they are also being aimed at George's family, his lawyer and even the judge.
I hold the New Black Panther Party responsible for these threats, and Eric Holder ultimately responsible since he will not do the right thing and prosecute them. The Twitter vigilantees see his willful inaction and are only emboldened by it.
Go to our Open Letter to Attorney General Eric Holder Calling for the Arrest of Leaders of New Black Panther Leaders. You will see a petition to fill out. I know you're as fed up as we are with the degeneration of race relations and our justice system under Eric Holder's direction. Please take action today. I will personally deliver the petitions to Atty. General Holder.
