Menace to society

As part of their effort to prove that they haven't conducted a racist investigation, the Sanford, Florida Police Department has leaked details about Trayvon Martin being on a 10-day suspension from school during the time his exchange with George Zimmerman took place. Not racist. Loud and clear. Well done.

On Monday, Al Sharpton warned the Sanford mayor and its city commissioners that, with their pending decision on the culpability of George Zimmerman, they "risk (Sanford) going down as the Selma and Montgomery of the 21st century." Sanford is already the Selma and Montgomery of the 20th century. Read this Dave Zirin piece on Sanford's ugly opposition to the ascent of Jackie Robinson in 1946.

Damn hoodies. Everybody's wearing them, even the law-abiding. How dare you people make it more difficult for me to stereotype you.

Obama separates himself again from his rhetoric, this time on energy and the Keystone XL pipeline.
