The parents of a Florida teen who was killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer in February will attend a House hearing on racial profiling and Florida’s controversial “Stand Your Ground” law Tuesday.
According to a report by the Huffington Post, the parents of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin will attend a special forum hosted by Judiciary ranking member John Conyers (D-Mich.) on Tuesday. The forum, which will also include other members of the Congressional Black Caucus as well as other minority Members of Congress, will look into not only Martin’s death but also racial profiling and federal hate crime laws.
The forum will also discuss Florida’s Stand Your Ground law, a controversial measure that allows armed civilians to use deadly force when they feel they are in danger of imminent — but not necessarily lethal — harm, rather than attempting to flee.

Capydick: The facts have no bearing in this matter. The race baiters have seen this for what it is... an ideal false rallying point that will be amplified, multiplied, and falsified ‘til Whitey surrenders.
This entire propaganda campaign is scripted.
It would be interesting to know who is coaching the Martins and their attorney.
So they created a "Congressional Black Caucus".
So is it a House hearing or a special forum?
In the end they’ll get Sheehanned and tossed aside when the democrats are done with them.
It does seem that the 0bama Regime and the Lamestream media is quite willing and able to start a race war. Perhaps followed by martial law?
**********************************************
If a race war is what they are looking for, someone needs to explain to obama and his blind followers what “all enemies foreign and domestic” means. It looks as if they don’t know what the word minority means, nor have they read enough about the Revolutionary War.
Uneducated and ill advised.
“the parents of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin will attend a special forum “
‘Special’ LOL!
A meaningless media show totally unconnected to any business of the House.
Advertisers will pay the media a premium for people emotionally manipulable enough to care about this show though.
So they created a "Congressional Black Caucus".
Heading to The Hill...invited,no doubt,by Osama Obama Victory Headquarters.
This has going from a sad tragic incident to completely bad comedy.
Judiciary ranking member John Conyers (D-Mich.) and has a wife in prison.

FR was sporadic here in Texas earlier, but seems much better now.
More BS from the usual clowns.
Just another phony "hearing" for the perpetually offended.
For real. No shame.
This has almost become one of those never ending skits on the Saturday Night Live shows of the early 1980s, after they had fired Lorne Michaels....pointless and boring.
The kid should never have died, I agree. He also should not have jumped Zimmerman, if indeed that is what happened...and if the eyewitness testimony is to be believed, Zimmerman was within his rights to protect himself.
As the facts come slowly out, these fools on the hill will resemble Mike Nifong.
(rolls eyes)
Another Flucking mess coming up in CONgress?
