1. oh wait...did he only just now find the story?...His hero Bush signed the law....Faux Outrage

[butterfly77]

11. Exactly..

He said that people kept asking him on his twitter account why he wasn't reporting the story.

He claimed that he was on vacation. He is full of shit he knew about it yesterday. He is reporting it because he can't ignore it anymore.

13. Need to vote against the "Stand your Ground law"

2. Anyone dare believe if a 240lbs Black Man shot a 140lb White child, the "Stand Your Ground" law

would apply?

7. "Stand Your Ground" may be ok

"Pursue, Confront, and Slay" is probably more applicable in this case. This should get a lot more interesting as more law enforcement agencies get pushed into the fray.

8. You need to read all of the other cases where the "killer" got off using this defense.

I don't think you would agree that it's "okay".

[Xyzse]

14. Agreed But WAIT!

They are now reporting Zimmerman as "Hispanic" not "White"...

3. but his confidence in Pam Bondi is misplaced - it will be all politics with Pam

4. They are going to have some competition on Monday from Current TV.

9. Thank God!

Now, when I work from home, I'll have something to put on in the background without using more of my computer utilization by streaming Sirius Left satellite radio shows.

10. Great news

Thanks

5. He did do that today..

Al Sharpton found him to be sincere....said it was the best day he has ever had on Morning Joe.

Every time the message gets out...it has impact. This is essential.

6. This country is actually having a real racial conversation right ow

It's been on every single MSNBC show for a couple of days now and it shows we're finally having that open and painfully honest conversation about race that we need to have. Trayvon died because of racism. Period. And now most people agree we have a real problem and we need to talk about it at the very least.

It's too bad another child had to be killed by a brutal fuckup to have this conversation though. This crime has plenty of evidence and I fully expect some serious investigation and some serious punishments, from the murderer to the police.

12. Good for Joe.

This story is too big to sweep under the rug.
