Washington – Attorney General Eric Holder is condemning the shooting deaths of two New York City police officers as senseless and an “unspeakable act of barbarism.”

The officers were shot Saturday in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. Authorities say the gunman later killed himself.
In a statement Saturday night, Holder calls the attack “cowardly” and says it underscores the dangers that are routinely faced by those who protect and serve their fellow citizens.
Holder praises law enforcement officers as courageous men and women who routinely incur tremendous personal risks, and place their lives on the line every day to preserve public safety. He says all Americans are forever in their debt.
Eric – will you be coming to New York to meet with the families of the officers executed in cold blood by this animal “of color” like you did in Ferguson or do dead white cops not count?
Mr Holder, you are the cause that a Black man killed 2 white police officers
I disagree with holder. I dont think the police are barbaric.
Why isn’t Al Sharpton and his white monkey (De Blasio) condemning the attack?
Thank your Boss for INCITEMENT against Police and all other decent people
What a two bit phoney! Th Arsonist trying to put out the fire! Sharpton , Obama, Di Blazio, and Holder stoked the flames against the cops, and then they speak out in anguish against the slain cops. What Chutzpah! How about a big fat apology???
Hey, Mr. Black Racist Holder:
It’s not barbarism. It is sheer racism directed against whites. You know it, and do not possess the honesty to label it accurately. You’re a disgrace to the American people. You will label those acts that have nothing to do with color as racism, but this act which is clearly so, you give it another label. I cannot wait until you and your racist boss get out of office.
It takes two dead cops for Holder to start saying the right things…
Will the Asian and Hispanic community be up in arms about this?
