DOJ Asks Civil Rights Groups, General Public for 'Tips' on Zimmerman

On Monday afternoon, the US Department of Justice appealed to civil rights groups and the general public across the country for “tips” on George Zimmerman in their pursuit of potential federal civil rights charges against the just-acquitted defendant in the Trayvon Martin killing. The DOJ actually went so far as to set up an e-mail address to allow such tips: [email protected]. The email address is slated to go operational by the end of the week.

Barbara Arnwine, president and executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law told the Orlando Sentinel that the DOJ had held a Monday conference call “calling on us to actively refer anyone who had any information” that would help build a case against Zimmerman. "They said they would very aggressively investigate this case,” Arnwine stated.

According to Arnwine, the call began at 3:30 p.m. with Tom Perez, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the United States DOJ, and representatives of the FBI on the line. Several prosecutors joined the call, too.

Arnwine listed off other organizations represented on the call, including the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, the ACLU, and several “human relations” groups.

So, since forcing local authorities to hold a trial that never should have happened didn't work, we'll just solicit the public to tell us ANYTHING defaming about Ol' Zim.

These are the people the left elected. Disgusting.

He was sent through the system , he was found "NOT" guilty by a jury of his peers. Leave the man alone.

LittleZero and BigZero will not stop until they can win a case against GZ, poor guy. Certain Americans have turned this into a race issue because they are a bitter, dependent, subservient people...no different than the general population of my home country that cling to the false hopes of their corrupt elected cronies.

Here's a tip for Eric Holder: find an white-hot ice pick, drop your pants, sit on it, and rotate!

 

[OLDNEWBIE]

I hear his internet records show the porn he looks at is racially biased towards white girls. Sounds like something the NAACP and Holder could use to show what a racist George was!
I'll bet he even used the "N" word in high school once. George needs to go move in with Snowden while he has a chance.

Should been on the first flight to Moscow. The problem is i am sure the Russians got all they wanted from Snowden, poor Zimmerman has nothing they would want.

Zimmerman is so racest he took a Black girl to his High School Prom. Good luck finding dirt on this poor guy.

Hey HOLDER what race were the Border Agents killed with your fast and furious guns ya douche bag

Please I want so bad for the Hispanic population in America to rally to this mans aid, the railroading of one of their own. This would be a wave that would set back the liberals 100 years.

 

[One-Eyed Ross]

John H, while I swore to defend your first amendment rights, I would suggest that you tone down the racist sentiments.

Did he really! The MSM smear job on George is so good I missed that! Would be great to see a pick surface to show these brainwashed mouthpieces for the anti-gun, anti reality Obama regime how misguided they have become.

Found this on a conservative site. A Democrat...YECH! Oh well, he seems to be a liberal poster child. Why doesn't anyone bring this stuff up on those annoying CNN discussion shows?


Researchable and legitimate source examples of Zimmerman's past history of working with and for blacks include:
&#8226;"He and a black friend opened up an insurance office in a Florida..."
&#8226;"He'd engaged in notably un-racist behaviour such as taking a black girl to his high-school prom..."
&#8226;"Not only does he have black relatives, he has reportedly donated his time to tutor black children."
&#8226;"He launched a campaign to help a homeless black man who was beaten up by a white kid."

Looks like they pulled out that race card too early and can't admit they got it wrong, even if a man has to go to prison for their mistake.
Now they are trying to pivot and call Stand Your Ground racist even though it didn't apply in this case.
"Never let a crisis go to waste!", even if you created it.

We heard all that on one of the talk shows also. You sure don't hear any of that on the MSM.

This might be a cure for holder to get off the Stand Your Ground Laws.

A Call for Eric Holder's Resignation & Prosecution

A Call for Eric Holder's Resignation & Prosecution
When is enough, enough? We say the time is now! The Obama Administration has shown itself to have blatant disregard and disrespect for our system of government as well as for the law of the land, the Constitution. Obama and his cronies operate as if the United States is a dictatorship and operate like a Chicago crime syndicate. They do what they want, when they want, with absolutely no regard to the law.




Mission Statement for the Department of Justice

To enforce the law and defend the interests of the United States according to the law; to ensure public safety against threats foreign and domestic; to provide federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime; to seek just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior; and to ensure fair and impartial administration of justice for all Americans.




Attorney General Eric Holder makes a mockery of this mission statement every day. Rather than running his office as a servant to the American people with deep respect for the laws that he is supposed to enforce, he runs the Department of Justice like the enforcement wing of a mafia organization with President Obama at the helm. Holder acts as Obama’s personal attorney and hit man, doing whatever is necessary to protect him and ‘the family', even if it means unlawful acts.

America has seen a number of egregious and unlawful acts by the man who is supposed to serve as the main legal advisor to the United States government. Instead, he uses his office as a weapon to push Obama’s radical, unconstitutional agenda and to punish those who disagree with the president We have witnessed a refusal to prosecute Black Panthers for voter intimidation. We have seen the loss of life, including Border Patrol agent Brian Terry, with the gun running operation Fast and Furious. We have heard Holder state that citizenship to illegals is a ‘civil right’. Those are just to name a few.

We have recently learned that Attorney General of the United States, Eric Holder, issued secret subpoenas to spy on members of the Associated Press for over 2 months! In addition to that, he signed the authorization for the DOJ to go after FOX News Chief Washington Correspondent James Rosen for simply doing his job. They labeled him as a possible criminal co-conspirator in violation of the Espionage Act and monitored his phone, his parent's phones, phones at FOX News as well as his personal email. Those are the tactics of the Soviet Union and a clear attack on freedom of the press!

IS THIS STILL AMERICA?

This most recent illegal act by Eric Holder’s Department of (In)Justice is so incredibly tyrannical and unconstitutional that should be the final straw for his removal from office!

RNC Chair Reince Preibus was correct when he stated:

“Freedom of the press is an essential right in a free society. The First Amendment doesn’t request the federal government to respect it; it demands it. Attorney General Eric Holder, in permitting the Justice Department to issue secret subpoenas to spy on Associated Press reporters, has trampled on the First Amendment and failed in his sworn duty to uphold the Constitution. Because Attorney General Holder has so egregiously violated the public trust, the president should ask for his immediate resignation. If President Obama does not, the message will be unmistakable: The President of the United States believes his administration is above the Constitution and does not respect the role of a free press.”

We agree with Preibus. Holder should tender his resignation effective immediately! But, that is not enough. We continue to call for the prosecution of Eric Holder. The very rule of law is at stake and the credibility of every law enforcement officer in the country. If our top law enforcement agency refuses to follow the law, there is no rule of law, and this is no longer America.

How is it racist?? It is a LATIN word meaning "black". ( I only used one G, not 2 )

 

[joe bratch]

Might be a good idea for him to legally change his name, leave the country and start over somewhere else.

Right or wrong, tactically, his phones are bugged (how they found the dirt on his wife's perjury), and I wouldn't doubt they have peeps trying to get next to him with tape recorders to get him to say something.

On the flip side, though, who knows, maybe some group, or even a police department would hire him given the press.

Zimmerman is so racest he took a Black girl to his High School Prom.

GZ could have been BigZero's son-inlaw

 

[wichaka]

I find it odd that there's a "tip" line for Zimmerman, but no "tip" line for either the IRS or Fast & Furious debacles.

 

[One-Eyed Ross]

Here's a tip for the DOJ: He was found innocent by a jury of his peers. A jury pool in Federal court will consist of his peers, again. Do you really want to waste all that money doing nothing? (Remember how well a Federal trial went against Randy Weaver? He was found innocent of all charges except failure to appear.)

And it cost him the deaths of his wife and children .......at the hands of justice dept.
A sad day for America.
