Jul 2013

August 24th, 2013 is not that far away. It needs to be big enough to force media coverage. They haven't even covered this story that alp provided for us here, and it should be on the national news.

Thank goodness Jesse Jackson is in this one, he has right on his side, and has done the right thing for decades despite the smearing by RW media. They find anything they can to make him look bad, and he's apologized for them, but it's equality that they really hate. Any person that stands up for that is smeared by media.

And agreed, SYG was in the instructions given to the jurors, IIRC. EOM.
