[FONT="]Attorney General Loretta Lynch told law enforcement union leaders Friday that it’s unlikely the Justice Department will pursue hate crime charges in Thursday’s Dallas shooting of police officers, Yahoo News has learned, because the suspect in the crime is dead.
[/FONT][FONT="]Lynch told the leaders in the 45-minute meeting that a hate crime investigation would be on the table if more suspects are discovered, according to a police union official at the meeting. So far, investigators have said that evidence suggests the suspect, Micah Johnson, a 25-year-old Army veteran, acted alone. “We continue to have faith that the attorney general is going to take this as far as it goes,” the police union official said.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Dallas Police Chief David Brown said Friday morning the suspect in the murders of five police officers said he “wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.” The suspect told police he was not affiliated with any group and that he was upset by recent police shootings of black men. Police later killed him with a robot-operated bomb.[/FONT]

This is where I draw the line. This was a hate crime and a terrorist attack against both whites and police officers. The intent was to kill as many white cops as possible. Lynch is simply wrong on this and she is being EXTREMELY hypocritical. Dylan Roof, from all we know, acted alone and he based his actions on a deeply rooted hatred for black people. Micah Xavier Johnson did the same and he should not be absolved from that simply because he is black.

Didja happen to miss the pertinent phrase: "it’s unlikely the Justice Department will pursue hate crime charges in Thursday’s Dallas shooting of police officers, Yahoo News has learned, because the suspect in the crime is dead."
Sorta hard to pursue hate crime charges when the suspect in the crime is freaking DEAD, people. Now if - IF - they find that others helped and assisted him, THEN we can talk hate crime charges...but until then, get real, people - stop trying to execute a dead horse!
It does seem like this is only because he is dead. Maybe I'm missing something.
hate crime investigations entail months long investigations into his personal background questioning his freinds, relatives, and any group members that might have encouraged him to do this.
If he was a member of one those weird black supremacist groups FOX news is always harping on about they would be investigating them
This is a symptom of what is wrong with the US.Attorney general: Hate crime charge unlikely if Dallas shooter acted alone

Do they tend to do that even when the perpetrator is dead? Honestly asking.

I see you are starting to catch on.So the corpse should stand trial?
If they manage to get him to testify in his own behalf, then I'll be impressed.
Am i in the twilight zone? The ONLY PERPETRATOR is dead. Mr. Hat! WTH am I missing?

Thread's a ****ing mess.
Play the spooky music White Boy . . .
His motive was exclusively hate against whites and white police. He was in possession of and took part in hate propaganda. Undoubtedly a hate crime. Perhaps this will help some people understand hate crime legislation. This is basically terrorism and terrorism must be met with more severe action than common crime.
And I'd agree with you if it wasn't awfully hard to try a dead man.
Maybe they should push for the death penalty. Oh wait....
I thought it was funky music?
