TPM: Civil rights organizations and legal ethics experts filed a judicial misconduct complaint on Tuesday against a senior federal judge, alleging that she made inappropriate statements against minority groups and people with mental disabilities, the New York Times reported.
According to the San Antonio Express-News, the complaint alleged that Judge Edith H. Jones, of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, said in a speech in February at the University of Pennsylvania Law School that African-Americans and Hispanics are "predisposed to crime" and that defendants facing capital punishment who claim "mental retardation" disgust her.
So she thinks blacks and Hispanics are genetically predisposed to be criminals. That might be a shocking and racist opinion in any other place except the Republican party. Since she's obviously not impartial, and thus has disqualified herself from being a judge, and she's a racist, she should seek work as a Republican politician.
