And the joke of it is that Obama did not grow up as “African-American” or even as American. He was raised overseas and went to elite schools.
Can’t let this heat wave go to waste.
“provoke”
It’s fair to say both sides are trying to change the conversation. The Defense WON, and continuing to pound the TM bad/GZ good point of view isn’t going to help either side move on.
Thank you!
I thought GZ’s brother’s interview was pathetic. He sounded more like a politician than someone whose brother has been abused by the government, a government which is getting ready to pound him some more. No amount of “changing the conversation” is going to change that. You really think they’l cut George some slack if his brother does kumbayah on TV? He practically endorsed the DoJ investigation. As another poster said, there’s some reason his attitude has changed and it probably has nothing to do with “changing the conversation.”
Like I said, Robert Jr. is looking down the road, as well he should.
I disagree about the DOJ pursuing charges. This from Zero's speech today along with nearly all the experts saying it's a non starter.
"The judge conducted the trial in a professional manner. The prosecution and the defense made their arguments. The juries were properly instructed that in a -- in a case such as this, reasonable doubt was relevant, and they rendered a verdict. And once the jury’s spoken, that’s how our system works.
---SNIP-- But beyond protests or vigils, the question is, are there some concrete things that we might be able to do? I know that Eric Holder is reviewing what happened down there, but I think it’s important for people to have some clear expectations here. Traditionally, these are issues of state and local government -- the criminal code. And law enforcement has traditionally done it at the state and local levels, not at the federal levels."
The concern is the civil suit. Parks and Crump will sit and wait for that NBC settlement. Hopefully MoM is right about being able to get GZ immunity.
GZ’s parents are in hiding, and that’s ok with him I suppose.
