Attorney General Eric Holder refuses to apply the law equally

In June 2009, during his testimony before a Senate panel considering new hate crimes legislation, Attorney General Eric Holder clearly suggested that any new laws passed would not apply to white victims. When Sen. Jeff Sessions pressed Holder into saying exactly who would be protected under such laws, Holder gave his opinion that only those who have been subjected to “the unfortunate history of our nation,” should receive the added protection.

Last summer, dozens of so-called ‘flash mob’ attacks were committed by black teenagers on white victims…both President Obama’s and Eric Holder’s silence on this issue spoke volumes.  

More recently, there has been a rash of black-on-white violence since the Trayvon Martin shooting. In fact, at least one of the attackers reportedly told his victim the blows he was receiving were in retribution for the Trayvon tragedy.

What follows are a few of the crimes upon which the Department of Justice has refused to take any action:

Teenager set ablaze in reported racial attack...

White tourist beaten unconscious by black mob in Baltimore caught video...

FBI drops hate crime investigation

Again, Obama and Holder have refused to mention the attacks, nor file federal hate crimes charges against the accused perpetrators.

Of course, Obama felt the need to use his bully pulpit to tell the nation that if he "had a son...he woudl look like Trayvon."

However, the president did not feel the need to extend his sympathies when a former U.S. Marine was allegedly beaten to death by a group of black men in Georgia.

Nor did the Justice Department take action when the New Black Panthers announced a $10,000 bounty on the head of George Zimmerman, distributing "dead or alive" flyers.

The most glaring example of Holder’s bias in matters of race came rather early in his tenure as the nation’s top-cop.

Shortly after becoming Attorney General, Holder dropped charges against three Black Panthers, who were caught on video, trying to intimidate white voters outside of a Philadelphia polling location on Election Day 2008.

The three, Minister King Shamir Shabazz, Malik Zulu Shabazz and Jerry Jackson were all charged during the final days of the Bush administration with violating the Voting Rights Act by using coercion, threats and intimidation.

Shabazz held a nightstick, pointing it at people. Prosecutors said he “supports racially motivated violence against non-blacks and Jews.”

Charges were brought against the Black Panthers by the Bush administration. However, the Obama administration dropped them in May 2009, settling instead, for an agreement with Shabazz to not carry a “deadly weapon” into or near a polling place until 2012.

Which, means that come November…we may very well see a repeat of the ugly 2008 incident, now synonymous with Obama’s Department of Justice.

At the time of the incident, poll watcher Bartle Bull provided a sworn affidavit to the crime saying: “I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters.”

Bull also claimed that the Black Panthers tried to "interfere with the work of other poll observers ... whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically.” He said that one of the black panthers told a white poll worker “you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.”

In 2011, Bull spoke out on the event again, telling Fox News: “I find it deeply offensive. I know people who died over these issues, like Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. If we can't defend their legacy, it's shameful to us and this administration.”

He continued: “If Americans can't vote honestly, and the government doesn't protect their right to vote, we don't live in a democracy. Last year Obama complained when the government in Afghanistan did not run the election properly. What about Pennsylvania?”

In not prosecuting the Black Panthers, Bull says Obama “violated his oath of office.”

It should be noted that Bartle Bull, a longtime Democrat, was a civil rights lawyer in the 1960’s as well as a campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy.

In 2010, DOJ whistleblower J. Christian Adams testified before Congress about the refusal to uphold the law as it applies to everyone, which is now occurring under Attorney General Eric Holder. While all of the focus has been on what many would say is the DOJ’s outright protection of the Black Panthers in what was a blatant violation of the Voting Rights Act, there may actually be an even more troubling policy at DOJ.

According to Adams, the DOJ has undertaken a policy not to purge the voter rolls of ineligible voters, such as felons and dead people.

Adams reports that he attended a meeting at which Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandez, who supervises the voting section at DOJ, actually instructed her attorneys not to enforce the law because it “would not increase turnout.”

    Iraq veteran suffered fatal mob beating...press ignores

    On March 25, as the national press was running around-the-clock coverage of the Trayvon Martin shooting, 34-year-old Zachary “Zach” Gamble, a former U.S. Marine and veteran of two tours of duty in Iraq was found lying unconscious in an apartment complex parking lot in Cobb County, Georgia.

    Gamble was attacked by a group of men as he left a friend’s birthday party held at the Concord Chase Apartments, according to police.

    Gamble was rushed to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, with severe head injuries. He never regained consciousness and was taken off life support April 8.

    Gamble left behind his 7-year-old son, Luke.

    On May 1, police arrested Arthur Lynell Batchelor, 37, of Acworth, and Jason Scott Hill, 35, and Tarell Winston Secrest, 36, both of Marietta, while Sean DGene Hall of Atlanta, 38, was arrested a day earlier.

    The Marietta Daily Journal has reported that Hall has also been charged with violating his probation stemming from a 2009 DUI conviction.

    There had been a total of $30,000 in reward money offered by Atlanta Crime Stoppers and Tina Robbins, the victim’s mother for information leading to the suspect’s arrests. Police have not yet said if the reward led to the arrests.

    Gamble was white and all of those accused of his brutal murder are black, and while the details of this tragedy did not rate even a mention from the national press…, such details seemed to become the only thing that mattered to that same press in another tragedy.

    So, is the race of the victims and that of the perpetrators the only reason the press has so heavily pushed the Martin killing while ignoring Gamble’s fatal beating?

    We have been told many times that the reason for the disparity in the coverage of the Trayvon Martin shooting and other violent crimes was that the admitted shooter, George Zimmerman had not been arrested.

    However, that simply does not hold true in Gamble’s case, as no arrests were made until weeks after his death as well.

    Unfortunately, violence, murder and racism are sad facts of life in this country and none of the aforementioned maladies show any signs of weakening.

    The least we should expect is equal and fair crime coverage from the press, yet we are not receiving it.

    The press has a duty to cover the news…all of it.

    Virginia Attorney General seemingly unconcerned with violent hate crimes

    On Tuesday, Fox News’ Bill O-Reilly reported that Virginia's Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has decided not to get involved in the investigation of two Virginia-Pilot reporters who were beaten by a mob of black teenagers in Norfolk, last month.

    Cuccinelli will not even ask that the 911 tapes be released, according to O’Reilly.

    While the Fox News host expressed surprise at the decision and found Cucinelli’s lack of interest in the case “troubling,” it is typical for the Commonwealth’s current Attorney General.

    The following case serves as an example of Cucinelli’s disinterest in such matters:

    On Friday, April 16, 2010, William Douglas followed 59-year-old Sylvia Hollingsworth, who is white, out of a 7-Eleven at the corner of North King Street and Rip Rap Road in Hampton.

    As she got into her car, he attacked her.

    According to the police report, he punched the woman in the face, neck and arms and repeatedly slammed her legs with the car door. Throughout the ordeal, the woman was subjected to a tirade of racist profanity.

    After the attacker’s ride sped away, the man fled the scene.

    Police believe that a few minutes later, Douglas actually shot at another person.

    The victim told WVEC 13 News: “Never once did he try to take my keys. Never once did he ask or try to take my pocketbook or any money. He was just out to hurt.”

    Hollingsworth continued: “It leaves me hurt, and I feel like I'm a victim of a hate crime. Just in his own words, he hated whites and he was going to kill my 'f---ing' white ass, as he put it, and that's what he was trying to do.”

    Hollingsworth, who walks with a cane, is still living with the injuries suffered in the attack.

    William Douglas was charged with malicious wounding, shooting into an occupied vehicle and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

    There was no robbery involved, and the attacker and victim did not know one another. So, when an attack occurs for no apparent reason, one has to look a little deeper for a motive, such as race.

    The attacker in this case, was black, while the victim was white. While that fact seems to have been initially overlooked by the police as well as by most of those reporting on the incident, race-fueled hatred is apparently the only motivating factor in this case.

    A few weeks after the attack, Hampton police announced that the case against Douglas had been turned over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), for possible prosecution as a hate crime.

    However, given the fact that our current Attorney General has himself, expressed his approval for the unfair way in which the law is often applied, it certainly came as no shock when the FBI dropped the case.

    In June 2009, during his testimony before a Senate panel considering new hate crimes legislation, Attorney General Eric Holder clearly suggested that any new laws passed would not apply to white victims. When Sen. Jeff Sessions pressed Holder into saying exactly who would be protected under such laws, Holder gave his opinion that only those who have been subjected to “the unfortunate history of our nation,” should receive the added protection.

    Douglas eventually pleaded guilty to assault and firearms charges, and was sentenced to serve a minimum of three and a half years in prison.

    In April 2011, I spoke with the victim who informed me that the FBI interviewed her on multiple occasions, but did not offer her an explanation as to why the case was simply dropped.

    Mrs. Hollingsworth told me that she has not been back to the convenience store where the attack occurred. She also said that for a time following the brutal assault, she was called a “racist” by some in her neighborhood for pressing charges against her attacker.

    However, Hollingsworth is not bitter.

    She said: “I’ve got some good friends, black and white.”

    Though Douglas was not prosecuted for a hate crime, Hollingsworth is relieved that he will be off the streets for at least a few years.

    The Norfolk and Hampton FBI offices refused to comment on this case.

    While it was not surprising that the same Justice Department which dropped the case of voter intimidation against the Black Panthers, despite overwhelming video evidence, chose not to prosecute Douglas for his hateful attack…we should have expected and demanded that Virginia’s self-described ‘strict Constitutionalist’ Attorney General Ken Cucinelli to apply state law and charge Douglas accordingly.

    However, he did not.

    Virginia hate crimes legislation was signed into law in 1994, and states:

    A. Any person who commits a simple assault or assault and battery shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor, and if the person intentionally selects the person against whom a simple assault is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

    B. However, if a person intentionally selects the person against whom an assault and battery resulting in bodily injury is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the person shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony, and the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

    If you wish to inquire as to why Attorney General Cucinelli has chosen not to prosecute William Douglas for a hate crime, for his violent, unprovoked attack against Sylvia Hollingsworth, nor get involved in the recent mob attack on two newspaper reporters in Norfolk, you may use the following link to do so:

    At the time of the incident, poll watcher Bartle Bull provided a sworn affidavit to the crime saying: “I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters.”

    Bull also claimed that the Black Panthers tried to "interfere with the work of other poll observers ... whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically.” He said that one of the black panthers told a white poll worker “you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.”

    In 2011, Bull spoke out on the event again, telling Fox News: “I find it deeply offensive. I know people who died over these issues, like Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. If we can't defend their legacy, it's shameful to us and this administration.”

    He continued: “If Americans can't vote honestly, and the government doesn't protect their right to vote, we don't live in a democracy. Last year Obama complained when the government in Afghanistan did not run the election properly. What about Pennsylvania?”

    In not prosecuting the Black Panthers, Bull says Obama “violated his oath of office.”

    It should be noted that Bartle Bull, a longtime Democrat, was a civil rights lawyer in the 1960’s as well as a campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy.

    In 2010, DOJ whistleblower J. Christian Adams testified before Congress about the refusal to uphold the law as it applies to everyone, which is now occurring under Attorney General Eric Holder. While all of the focus has been on what many would say is the DOJ’s outright protection of the Black Panthers in what was a blatant violation of the Voting Rights Act, there may actually be an even more troubling policy at DOJ.

    According to Adams, the DOJ has undertaken a policy not to purge the voter rolls of ineligible voters, such as felons and dead people.

    Adams reports that he attended a meeting at which Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandez, who supervises the voting section at DOJ, actually instructed her attorneys not to enforce the law because it “would not increase turnout.”

    Virginia Attorney General seemingly unconcerned with violent hate crimes

    On Tuesday, Fox News’ Bill O-Reilly reported that Virginia's Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has decided not to get involved in the investigation of two Virginia-Pilot reporters who were beaten by a mob of black teenagers in Norfolk, last month.

    Cuccinelli will not even ask that the 911 tapes be released, according to O’Reilly.

    While the Fox News host expressed surprise at the decision and found Cucinelli’s lack of interest in the case “troubling,” it is typical for the Commonwealth’s current Attorney General.

    The following case serves as an example of Cucinelli’s disinterest in such matters:

    On Friday, April 16, 2010, William Douglas followed 59-year-old Sylvia Hollingsworth, who is white, out of a 7-Eleven at the corner of North King Street and Rip Rap Road in Hampton.

    As she got into her car, he attacked her.

    According to the police report, he punched the woman in the face, neck and arms and repeatedly slammed her legs with the car door. Throughout the ordeal, the woman was subjected to a tirade of racist profanity.

    After the attacker’s ride sped away, the man fled the scene.

    Police believe that a few minutes later, Douglas actually shot at another person.

    The victim told WVEC 13 News: “Never once did he try to take my keys. Never once did he ask or try to take my pocketbook or any money. He was just out to hurt.”

    Hollingsworth continued: “It leaves me hurt, and I feel like I'm a victim of a hate crime. Just in his own words, he hated whites and he was going to kill my 'f---ing' white ass, as he put it, and that's what he was trying to do.”

    Hollingsworth, who walks with a cane, is still living with the injuries suffered in the attack.

    William Douglas was charged with malicious wounding, shooting into an occupied vehicle and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.

    There was no robbery involved, and the attacker and victim did not know one another. So, when an attack occurs for no apparent reason, one has to look a little deeper for a motive, such as race.

    The attacker in this case, was black, while the victim was white. While that fact seems to have been initially overlooked by the police as well as by most of those reporting on the incident, race-fueled hatred is apparently the only motivating factor in this case.

    A few weeks after the attack, Hampton police announced that the case against Douglas had been turned over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), for possible prosecution as a hate crime.

    However, given the fact that our current Attorney General has himself, expressed his approval for the unfair way in which the law is often applied, it certainly came as no shock when the FBI dropped the case.

    In June 2009, during his testimony before a Senate panel considering new hate crimes legislation, Attorney General Eric Holder clearly suggested that any new laws passed would not apply to white victims. When Sen. Jeff Sessions pressed Holder into saying exactly who would be protected under such laws, Holder gave his opinion that only those who have been subjected to “the unfortunate history of our nation,” should receive the added protection.

    Douglas eventually pleaded guilty to assault and firearms charges, and was sentenced to serve a minimum of three and a half years in prison.

    In April 2011, I spoke with the victim who informed me that the FBI interviewed her on multiple occasions, but did not offer her an explanation as to why the case was simply dropped.

    Mrs. Hollingsworth told me that she has not been back to the convenience store where the attack occurred. She also said that for a time following the brutal assault, she was called a “racist” by some in her neighborhood for pressing charges against her attacker.

    However, Hollingsworth is not bitter.

    She said: “I’ve got some good friends, black and white.”

    Though Douglas was not prosecuted for a hate crime, Hollingsworth is relieved that he will be off the streets for at least a few years.

    The Norfolk and Hampton FBI offices refused to comment on this case.

    While it was not surprising that the same Justice Department which dropped the case of voter intimidation against the Black Panthers, despite overwhelming video evidence, chose not to prosecute Douglas for his hateful attack…we should have expected and demanded that Virginia’s self-described ‘strict Constitutionalist’ Attorney General Ken Cucinelli to apply state law and charge Douglas accordingly.

    However, he did not.

    Virginia hate crimes legislation was signed into law in 1994, and states:

    A. Any person who commits a simple assault or assault and battery shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor, and if the person intentionally selects the person against whom a simple assault is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

    B. However, if a person intentionally selects the person against whom an assault and battery resulting in bodily injury is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the person shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony, and the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

    Iraq veteran suffered fatal mob beating...press ignores

    On March 25, as the national press was running around-the-clock coverage of the Trayvon Martin shooting, 34-year-old Zachary “Zach” Gamble, a former U.S. Marine and veteran of two tours of duty in Iraq was found lying unconscious in an apartment complex parking lot in Cobb County, Georgia.

    Gamble was attacked by a group of men as he left a friend’s birthday party held at the Concord Chase Apartments, according to police.

    Gamble was rushed to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, with severe head injuries. He never regained consciousness and was taken off life support April 8.

    Gamble left behind his 7-year-old son, Luke.

    On May 1, police arrested Arthur Lynell Batchelor, 37, of Acworth, and Jason Scott Hill, 35, and Tarell Winston Secrest, 36, both of Marietta, while Sean DGene Hall of Atlanta, 38, was arrested a day earlier.

    The Marietta Daily Journal has reported that Hall has also been charged with violating his probation stemming from a 2009 DUI conviction.

    There had been a total of $30,000 in reward money offered by Atlanta Crime Stoppers and Tina Robbins, the victim’s mother for information leading to the suspect’s arrests. Police have not yet said if the reward led to the arrests.

    Gamble was white and all of those accused of his brutal murder are black, and while the details of this tragedy did not rate even a mention from the national press…, such details seemed to become the only thing that mattered to that same press in another tragedy.

    So, is the race of the victims and that of the perpetrators the only reason the press has so heavily pushed the Martin killing while ignoring Gamble’s fatal beating?

    We have been told many times that the reason for the disparity in the coverage of the Trayvon Martin shooting and other violent crimes was that the admitted shooter, George Zimmerman had not been arrested.

    However, that simply does not hold true in Gamble’s case, as no arrests were made until weeks after his death as well.

    Unfortunately, violence, murder and racism are sad facts of life in this country and none of the aforementioned maladies show any signs of weakening.

    The least we should expect is equal and fair crime coverage from the press, yet we are not receiving it.

    The press has a duty to cover the news…all of it.

    Attorney General Eric Holder refuses to apply the law equally

    In June 2009, during his testimony before a Senate panel considering new hate crimes legislation, Attorney General Eric Holder clearly suggested that any new laws passed would not apply to white victims. When Sen. Jeff Sessions pressed Holder into saying exactly who would be protected under such laws, Holder gave his opinion that only those who have been subjected to “the unfortunate history of our nation,” should receive the added protection.

    Last summer, dozens of so-called ‘flash mob’ attacks were committed by black teenagers on white victims…both President Obama’s and Eric Holder’s silence on this issue spoke volumes.  

    More recently, there has been a rash of black-on-white violence since the Trayvon Martin shooting. In fact, at least one of the attackers reportedly told his victim the blows he was receiving were in retribution for the Trayvon tragedy.

    What follows are a few of the crimes upon which the Department of Justice has refused to take any action:

    Teenager set ablaze in reported racial attack...

    White tourist beaten unconscious by black mob in Baltimore caught video...

    FBI drops hate crime investigation

    Again, Obama and Holder have refused to mention the attacks, nor file federal hate crimes charges against the accused perpetrators.

    Of course, Obama felt the need to use his bully pulpit to tell the nation that if he "had a son...he woudl look like Trayvon."

    However, the president did not feel the need to extend his sympathies when a former U.S. Marine was allegedly beaten to death by a group of black men in Georgia.

    Nor did the Justice Department take action when the New Black Panthers announced a $10,000 bounty on the head of George Zimmerman, distributing "dead or alive" flyers.

    The most glaring example of Holder’s bias in matters of race came rather early in his tenure as the nation’s top-cop.

    Shortly after becoming Attorney General, Holder dropped charges against three Black Panthers, who were caught on video, trying to intimidate white voters outside of a Philadelphia polling location on Election Day 2008.

    The three, Minister King Shamir Shabazz, Malik Zulu Shabazz and Jerry Jackson were all charged during the final days of the Bush administration with violating the Voting Rights Act by using coercion, threats and intimidation.

    Shabazz held a nightstick, pointing it at people. Prosecutors said he “supports racially motivated violence against non-blacks and Jews.”

    Charges were brought against the Black Panthers by the Bush administration. However, the Obama administration dropped them in May 2009, settling instead, for an agreement with Shabazz to not carry a “deadly weapon” into or near a polling place until 2012.

    Which, means that come November…we may very well see a repeat of the ugly 2008 incident, now synonymous with Obama’s Department of Justice.

    At the time of the incident, poll watcher Bartle Bull provided a sworn affidavit to the crime saying: “I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters.”

    Bull also claimed that the Black Panthers tried to "interfere with the work of other poll observers ... whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically.” He said that one of the black panthers told a white poll worker “you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.”

    In 2011, Bull spoke out on the event again, telling Fox News: “I find it deeply offensive. I know people who died over these issues, like Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. If we can't defend their legacy, it's shameful to us and this administration.”

    He continued: “If Americans can't vote honestly, and the government doesn't protect their right to vote, we don't live in a democracy. Last year Obama complained when the government in Afghanistan did not run the election properly. What about Pennsylvania?”

    In not prosecuting the Black Panthers, Bull says Obama “violated his oath of office.”

    It should be noted that Bartle Bull, a longtime Democrat, was a civil rights lawyer in the 1960’s as well as a campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy.
