I'm stunned that a criminal investigation in a molestation case was conducted by three doctors and not three detectives?

I've noticed a peculiar pattern when it comes to the heads of some of the biggest labor unions, especially with Richard Trumka: they pop off based on inaccurate or incomplete info early on, then have to backtrack and clarify when all the facts are in. Plus, I don't trust fake-ass "No Labels" moderates like Steve Forbes for a damn second. So, for now I'll wait.

Its a hashtag started to mock BHO's statements about the Zimmerman verdict, but Obama supporters hijacked it.

George Zimmerman's not a White Hispanic? Seriously?

The Zimmerman jury "basically got it right" if you're thinking in terms of political ideology rather than justice. The case was damaged from the start when Sanford used "Stand Your Ground" as a pretense to let Zimmerman walk and only arrested him 6 weeks later due to strong public outcry about the shooting.

I'm also getting lingering suspicions about the state only being interested in conducting a show trial based on their post-verdict conduct.

Re: The Zimmerman Case Exposes Black Racism

Pretty clever of you to absolve whites and Hispanics as potential rioters while claiming blacks are certain of it because they apparently "have nothing better to do." Have you ever mentioned the historical fact that most race riots in America were started by racist whites who attacked, murdered and displaced hundreds of innocent blacks in the process? Or, are you only paid to peddle the bizarro talking points handed to you by the people who work with Glen Beck and Breitbart.com?

Blacks people were judged by racists like Rand Paul long before they put the rope around their necks. Lynchings aren't judgments - they're murders plain and simple. Paul is just trolling to piss off black folk by saying this, but principled Kneegrows in the media will still be kissing his ass regardless because dronezzzzzzzzz.

While pointing out much of Snowden's statements and behavior makes no sense, Kurt Eichenwald noted on Twitter that many "whistleblowers" who publish info and out themselves afterward tend to have issues such as bipolarism.

One bone to pick, if any: didn't Snowden originally say he liked the promise of Obama even though he didn't actually vote for him?

Leaking a classified doc to expose a blackmail op in an attempt to stop the rush into an unnecessary war that costs the lives of thousands of American, British and Iraqi citizens is legitimate whistleblowing. Snowden's just a starry-eyed ideologue who's leaking intel to embarrass an administration.

This outrage about bulk data collection is in no way related to white male privilege. Also, its highly coincidential GG is all verklempt over possible domestic spying when there really are American white supremacist groups with a history of committing domestic terrorist acts. Third, its highly suspect when libertarians only mention the black civil rights struggle when they want to co-opt it to justify their sense of being above the law themselves.

The epic trolling has begun. I was gonna use "Glenn Greenwald is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life" but I refuse to volunteer my info in order to post on that site.

+1000 innanetz if you can guess where that line comes from without Googling.
