  • Reply to: On Anniversary of Trayvon Martin's Death, ALEC-Backed Stand Your Ground Laws Remain on Books   11 years 6 months ago
    This article is biased and full of mis-imformation. Is is so blatently biased that it has some of the same imformation that caused abc news to be sued. George zimmerman could site the stand your ground law but he is hasen't in his court case. He dosent have too because he was blatently attacked by the 6'3" treyvon martin who doubled back and came out of the dark and attacked zimmerman and literally was banging zimmermans head into the concrete in the middle of the night. Zimmerman is only using a defence of "self defence" in his court case. This article is eitheir a blatent lie or poorly researched. Zimmerman lawfully pulled out his gun and shot martin before he was knocked out and possibly killed. Treyvon Martins assault on zimmerman was a third degree felony assault of aggravated assault in the state of florida and carries a 20 year sentance. Treyvon Martin was suspended from school for drugs at the time he assaulted zimmerman. Treyvon Martins father and his fathers "baby mamma" and their attorney "Benjamin Crump" can not sue anyone and make money off of their sons death unless Zimmerman is convicted of a crime hense all of the attention they raised about the case instead of mourning their sons death quietly like most people would have done.

    I think you may be reading PR spin from Monsanto. Have you seen this recent report: http://www.motherjones.com/tom-philpott/2013/02/do-gmo-crops-have-lower-yields

    I'm ashamed to say my fellow Americans know more about the lame "stars" on "Dancing with the Stars" and "Survivor" then their own Mayor, never mind their state and federal legislators!

    Ed Rendell is on the central committee of Fix the Debt. Yet MSNBC continues giving him airtime, and I have yet to hear them provide a disclaimer when he's introduced. Why not? Regardless, every time it happens, I lose a bit more respect for them.

    I am just about ready to move to a country where the food supply is SAFE and not stuffed full of chemicals. Why don't the companies provide the US population with the same food products they ship overseas - free of chemicals, additives, and genetically engineered products. We need to adopt some of the same food safety laws as Sweden, Italy, and other industrialized third world countries. They do not allow all these chemicals. Companies need to get back to natural food production and quit worrying about shelf life in this country. Studies are coming out that prove their is a link to these chemicals resulting in obesity, diabetes, cancer and heart disease. We need to make these companies listen - stop buying their products - by imported food products. Let their contaminated food products sit on the grocery shelves. That is the only way we can get their attention. DON'T BUY PROCESSED FOOD PRODUCTS.
