| Congressional Black Caucus Demands Nationwide Crackdown on Law Enforcement |
| 2016-09-23 |
| [Washington Examiner] The Congressional Black Caucus is demanding that Attorney General Loretta Lynch immediately take action to prevent police killings with a nationwide crackdown on law enforcement. "The world is watching and we cannot continue to ignore these killings," said Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., presenting the letter to the media Thursday while the entire caucus stood in support outside the Department of Justice. The Congressional Black Caucus' letter urges Lynch to "aggressively pursue investigations, indictments and prosecutions through the Office of Civil Rights against any and all law enforcement officers who harm or kill innocent unarmed black men, women and children. |

| #9 Does anubody notice the irony of having an AG named "Lynch". That aside the bad apples in law enforcement do need to be weeded out and prosecuted if need be. Face it, we've all met or known officers who are assholes and willingly abuse their positions |

| #8 So...they want law enforcement to crack down on law enforcement? Like, the State Department investigating the State Department? |

| #7 Make an arrangement with one of the African countries where we can send any and all Black Americans that demand their own space/laws/communities. Note I'm not saying all blacks, just those that want to be in charge of everything on their own terms. Oh yeah, we sorta tried that once. How'd that work out? |

| #6 They basically want an exemption for all people of a certain skin color from following the law. |

| #5 How about ending the 'legal' looting of the Treasury to buy votes and creating a dependency class. Haven't noticed Asians doing a lot of rioting. |

| #3 Once you evacuate the black and white citizens then I'd like the wiggaz* and niggaz* to have their 2 weeks of mad-max before they die off. *As Chris Rock would describe them. |

| #2 Obviously redundant. DoJ legal enforcement & financial threat teams were on their way to Charlotte before the CBB even issued this statement. |

| #1 Could we also demand a nationwide crackdown on blacks? |
