Despite the findings of the Department of Justice's damning report on the discriminatory practices of the Ferguson Police Department and racism among city officials, Missouri's lieutenant governor claims the DOJ is more racist.
According to BuzzFeed, this horrible instance of trolling comes courtesy of Missouri Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder, who appeared on the equally-insufferable Steve Malzberg's self-titled show last night. During his segment, he rambled on, avoiding the real issue—and facts:
The whole blow up of this protest movement was based on the lie that never happened of ‘hands up don’t shoot. But it’s bad enough the protestors were behaving that way but we have a right to expect more from the attorney general, the head of the Justice Department of the United States, and the president of the United States. And instead what we got too often from them was incitement of the mob, and, uh, encouraging disorder in Ferguson and distributing the peaceable going-about of our lives in the greater St. Louis region.
Unsurprisingly, Kinder criticized President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder for their alleged bias, saying Holder is "unlike any previous attorney general." (Wonder what that means?) He also claims that most of this new, frightening Department of Justice "have spent most of their careers defending Black Panthers and other violent radicals."
Watch as much as you can stomach.
