DOJ announces launch of mandatory implicit racial bias testing , Brit Hume has a better idea

Almost from the moment that the Black Lives Matter movement sprang from the ashes of the Ferguson, Missouri riots nearly two years ago, the anti-cop group seems to have been calling the shots on police enforcement procedures.

Law enforcement departments across the country have responded to BLM’s demands to order their personnel to undergo such things as implicit racial bias testing.

Now, in yet another example of the tail wagging the dog, U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced Monday that beginning in 2017, the Justice Department’s own employees will be required to undergo similar training and testing.

Fox New reported:

More than 33,000 agents and DOJ prosecutors will be subject to the training, which Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates said in a memo to employees will address “implicit biases” based on stereotypes of racial or ethnic groups, according to Reuters.
