1. K&R. Excellent time to post this. We sure could use him now.

2. Sad that nothing has changed in all of the intervening years as far as race is concerned.

The Dino governor let that DA rig the prosecution. The prosecutor in the Geand Jury is supposed to show the evidence of guilt and instruct the GJ as to the charge that the indictment should be returned for, not show that the victim was a criminal in the moments before. Not to give the Defendant the opportunity to present a defense. We should have heard a disappointed prosecutor saying that this should have resulted in an indictment so that all could see the evidence and hear the witnesses at trial in order that justice be done. There was no justice today, only the powerful saying to the downtrodden, in clear and unambiguous terms, "We matter more than you! There is nothing that you can do because we are above the law, we are the law!"

3. Then,

two months later, we suffered the horror of Bobby's murder.

I believe, in my heart, it was them same people behind all the assassinations and I believe some of them are still alive.

What could have been.........

4. I wish he had lived.

It all happened before my birth in '71...

JFK, MLK, RFK

The loss to humanity and the cause of justice and peace will forever be immeasurable.

RIP to all those lost in this continuing struggle. Your memories live still in all of us who wish for something more than what is, who want a better world for all and not just for themselves.

5. I just re-watched this wonderful clip of RFK's reaction to Dr. King's shooting...

This is what Mr. Obama should have watched before speaking last evening...this is truly great, as opposed to what we heard from our President last night.
