If Obama had a son, he would look like a sleazy lawyer.
At least he apologized.
I wonder if his silence earlier was due to ongoing negotiatins with the family.
There wouldn’t have been any difference if Lee wasn’t a racist, violence inducing, pig.
I guess Roseann Barr will be next? She tweeted Zimmerman’s parents address.
I’m imagining that people are going online to “google” George Zimmerman’s name in an effort to find his address. There’s a problem with this. In my case, just about every address I’ve ever lived at — however briefly — continues to be listed on some of these sites. Places I haven’t lived for over 25 years. Old information never dies in the internet. Moreover, these sites do not give dates, so it’s difficult to decide which is the current address.
Translation from lawyerspeak to English... Mr. Lee opened his checkbook now because if not later he was gonna be payin' "big dollahs"
Hope it was a LARGE settlement.
What sort of settlement was reached? Was money involved?
If money was involved, how much are we talking about?
How the heck did this get done so quickly?
Is Spike a multi-millionaire? I have no idea how wealthy that guy is, but could it be an offer they couldn’t refuse was made?
Perhaps it’s all legal and legit, whatever the settlement is. But, with lack of details, it makes me think that they were paid a big sum of money. And that this payoff will buy their silence. Meaning, among other things, no media interviews by this couple, no discussion of what sorts of threats made them decide to leave their house, or any of that.
Seems to me they were also profoundly “moved” by his first incorrect tweets.
How do you accept an apology from a guy who doesn’t think his race-baiting is the problem, just that he got the address wrong?
Can anyone name even two Spike Lee films other than Do The Right Thing, without a web search or the like?
Can anyone name even one other film by Lee than made money?
His best work was in ads for shoes and “She’s Gotta Have It” — basically because he disappeared into the funny character of Mars Blackmon. “Is it the shoes? Gotta be the shoes.”
Why he still is paid attention to, more than any other has-been (never-really-was), is beyond me.
Now show that you mean it, Spike. Get your gun.
And eat it.
Wow amazing how quickly this happened? Internal polling from WH for this issue must not be good. I noticed this isn’t really front page issue on the usual websites of late.
That’s awfully (sorta) white of ya, spike, ya dipchit
Not good enough.
Apology NOT accepted.
Spike still has evil intentions against the real George Zimmerman.
And unless and until he apologizes for his idiot intentions to harm the real victim (Zimmerman) then Lee has not done enough.
That’s awfully (sorta) white of ya, spike, ya dipchit
Proving they are the bigger people in this case, regardless of the money involved.
It’s a shame that the lynch mob never goes out of style.
wanted to resolve the issues with Lee quickly to illustrate that whites and blacks could work together to settle their differences without escalating racial tensions
[wink wink]
Although, we all know its whitey who is to blame for 99% of the greif on Earth.
I see another Spi[t]e Lee film in the near future.
