SAN DIEGO — Hours after President Barack Obama delivered remarks about Trayvon Martin and the George Zimmerman trial, Jamie Foxx and Samuel L. Jackson addressed the racially charged case at Comic-Con in San Diego.

I think that's what really makes it universal in the fact that we know that there's race involved, but to see all races coming together and saying that hey, there's something wrong," Foxx said. "There's something wrong when a 17-year-old child is on his way home and someone with a gun pursues him and he ends up losing his life."

Foxx said Martin's case was part of an "epidemic" of gun violence in the US.....

[a fool in paradise]

“Are they going to ask EVERY black person with one iota of celebrity their take on this trial?”

Louis Armstrong was a pot head if that's any indication of where he might have weighed in on Trayvon's responsibility for what happened.

I am including proof. A picture of Mr. Louis Armstrong on pot.
