How many people here think that it was perfectly innocent for Pappy Zim to go to a FOX station...

To use his diversionary tactic of garnering attention away from his gun toting progeny, over to people like the President, The NAACP and the Congressional Black Caucus?

And who do you think that he was really trying to appeal to?

I have no doubt that he will "make use of" the interview and stir up the "Dittoheads" with cinematic images of 17 year old Trayvon as every white right-winger's worst Mike Tyson nightmare brought to life. Tayvon held helpless George on the ground and bit off his ear! He spat it on the ground! Local police were able to re-attach it in the 30-minute ride back to the station!

I also agree with Amerigo's post above that Limpballs & all the other hate-talk hosts were PoppyZ's targets in particular. Aren't they responsible for delivering the racists their marching-in-unison, keep-the-made-up-facts-straight orders?

A former judge, incredibly -- apparently with connections -- so he's probably appealing to the 1%, too.

That is messed up. But as long as the public keeps up the pressure, the more confident I am that justice will be done.
