George Floyd's lawyer: Wells Fargo is "ki----g Black homeowners opportunities"

Wells Fargo & Co. is again facing scrutiny and lawsuits over loan practices involving Black borrowers.

Wells Fargo — the largest mortgage lender among U.S. banks — is currently looking at a possible class-action lawsuit as well as criticism from Capitol Hill over claims it denied Black people a shot at homeownership.

In recent days, civil rights attorney Ben Crump joined an amended complaint filed Thursday in federal court in San Francisco.

"We are suing Wells Faro to demand they change their practices that are ki----g Black homeowners opportunities!" Crump, the high-profile lawyer for the families of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, tweeted on Thursday.

This isnt about liberals and republicans. The bottom line is they did not qualify and we have the proof. Legally speaking, no one is entitled to a loan. You MUST qualify and those qualifications are not solely determined by us. At the end of the day, a lot of this started with an expose (hit piece) on all lenders and the analysis they conducted was flawed. There will always be L and R leaning attorneys trying to swoop in and “advocate” for people. Let ‘em!! In the end, we did nothing but wrong and if anything the tighter controls put in place after 2008 “to protect” is the reason lower income and lower scored people don’t qualify. The rich get richer.

This guy has always been a joke. No loan applicant / borrower is being discriminated against based on skin color. IF the company were to do that, it'd be in the form of handouts to "certain groups", aka the racism of exclusion against the group it's 'ok to hate'. (Not in my mind, in the pea-sized brains of racist people that insist on judging others based on skin color).

So an obvious ambulance chaser? That should all but tell you this is a money grab. I'm sure income, credit score, financial status had nothing to do with determining eligibility.
