Is Racial Discrimination Against White Farmers a "Hate Crime"?
By John Lillpop  Tuesday, July 20, 2010

Shirley Sherron was an official with the USDA in Georgia until Monday when she was allowed to resign following release of a video which shows her boasting of discrimination against white farmers.

Sherron's candid remarks were apparently delivered at an NAACP banquet in March as shown in the You Tube video linked at reference 1.

As also reported at reference, in part:

"During her controversial speech, Sherrod discussed the first time she was "faced with having to help a white farmer save his farm." She claims that during the conversation, the man "was trying to show me he was superior to me."

"I was struggling with the fact that so many black people had lost their farmland," Sherrod told the crowd. "And here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land."

"I didn't give him the full force of what I could do."

So, in what seems like an open and shut case of racial discrimination by a department of the U.S. government, why has President Obama not expressed outrage over Ms. Sherron's "stupidity" and demanded a full and complete investigation of all departments to root out the likes of Shirley Sherron?

Where in Hades is Attorney General Eric Holder? Will his Department of Justice step up to the bar and look into this case of deliberate racial discrimination by a government employee?

Will Shirley Sherron be arrested and charged with a hate crime or worse?

Or are DOJ lawyers too busy investigating an Oakland California jury for finding Johannes Mehserle guilty of involuntary manslaughter instead of second-degree murder or voluntary manslaughter?

The probability of justice being served in the Shirley Sherron case seems remote, at best, given Holder's failure to take action against the New Black Panthers for voter intimidation in 2008.

Perhaps the government blurb which states that the U.S. "prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital or family status" should be appeneded with the phrase, "except in the case of white folks with attitude" ?

I personally think we should start a groop naawp (national association for the advancement of white people) and sue the usda for racial descrimination and also sue the naacp for there part in the case. i mean why not the niggers sue us for everything we do.

Racist Shirley Sherrod

[Rev.Molyneaux]

She's lost her job.  Now the agency says that upon further review they may offer her the job again, but now she's saying she probably won't take it back- spinning the agency as hateful and such.  Does it never end?
