Attorney General Eric Holder canceled a speech to a graduating class of police cadets in Oklahoma City on Thursday, after crowds of Oklahomans flocked to the ceremony to protest his appearance.
Protest organizers said Holder's planned speech to the law enforcement graduates was "inappropriate," and argued that the attorney general has failed to uphold the law himself.
"A lot of people just felt that it was very inappropriate for this man, with his track record, to speak to law enforcement officers that demand and expect to be backed up by the government working on behalf of the citizens, not against the citizens," State Rep. Mike Turner (R.), who is running for U.S. congress, told theWashington Free Beacon.
Turner said Holder has flouted the law when it comes to illegal immigration, the "Fast and Furious" gunrunning scandal, and the Second Amendment.
The U.S. House of Representatives held Holder in contempt of Congress in 2012, on the grounds that he was impeding investigations into Fast and Furious.
The Oklahoma City protest made national news Thursday afternoon, after Holder backed out of the speech shortly before the graduation ceremony began. Holder's office told the Washington Times that the last-minute cancelation was due to a scheduling issue.
"The attorney general had been looking to addressing the cadets, and regrets he cannot attend in person," spokesman Brian Fallon told the Washington Times. "He extends his heartfelt congratulations to the cadets and their families."

Holder cancels graduation speech amid protests
Attorney General Eric Holder, left, took in a Lewis Black show over the weekend.
It sounds like Attorney General Eric Holder is practicing a new act for the next time he testifies before Congress.
Over the weekend, Holder went to see comedian and The Daily Show regular Lewis Black perform at Washingtons Warner Theatre. He came backstage, which was nice, cause he said he enjoyed the show, Black told Whispers. And then he said that maybe when he was in front of Congress he could do his Lewis Black imitation and then did a good imitation of me.
Blacks style of comedy involves a lot of name-calling, shouting and finger-pointing, something Holder had gotten down. He didnt really so much say, but shake his finger and just yell a little, Black said, noting that it was the best impression of himself that he has seen done by a Washingtonian.

Im actually thinking of having him do my next two performances, just to see if my audience even notices, Black said.
Holder is a regular at Capitol Hill hearings and has made news for his testy exchanges with lawmakers. Just last week, he let Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, have it after Gohmert hinted that Holder didnt care that the GOP-led House had held the attorney general in contempt two years ago. You dont want to go there, buddy, you dont want to go there, OK? Holder said.
You should not assume that that is not a big deal to me I think that it was inappropriate, I think it was unjust but never think that that was not a big deal to me, dont ever think that, Holder said,as a bemused Gohmert responded, I dont want to go there?

Blacks bedside manner is worse, but that's all part of his shtick. As he stepped up to the dais Monday at the National Press Club, he warned those in the audience and watching C-SPAN of what was to come. I may use profanity,so tough, Black said, before dropping a handful of f-bombs through the hourlong program.
