James Woods challenges Eric Holder to investigate Kroger attack as hate crime
Finally someone calling out Holder for his hypocrisy and refusal to treat all race crimes equally.
Quote:Actor James Woods is using his fame and twitter to try to get Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate the attack in a Memphis Kroger parking lot.
Woods tweeted the following to his 159,000 followers, “Mr Holder, stand above politics and address the cancer of ALL racism in America. Go to Memphis.”
Woods has been following the attack on three people at the Kroger at Highland and Poplar September 6.
A white male was attacked in the parking lot at 9:15 p.m.
Two Kroger employees, one white and one black, were attacked at they attempted to help the first man.
Police say the attackers were black teenage males.
Both the police department and district attorney have said the beatings do not constitute a hate crime.
Woods is well-known as a conservative activist and high-profile opponent of the Obama administration.
Woods wanted Holder, who has been outspoken in other high profile crimes, to come to Memphis and launch a justice department investigation.
