Rush Limbaugh likens Boston bombing suspect to Trayvon Martin
Ever the demagogue, radio blabber Rush Limbaugh has virtually likened Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarniev to gun-violence victim Trayvon Martin, as we see HERE:
“The news media are doing to Dzhokhar what they did to Trayvon Martin,” Limbaugh observed. “They’re regularly showing a photo of Dzhokhar that was taken when he was about 14. Soft, angelic, nice little boy. Harmless. Cute. Big, loveable eyes.”
“Not at all what he looks like today,” Limbaugh added. “The way, when we’re shown Osama bin Laden, it’s in his shepherd pose with his walking stick, walking through the mountains or whatever.”

No grand jury in Trayvon Martin case! Does that mean an arrest will come soon?
The special prosecutor in the Trayvon Martin case has DECIDED not to take the matter to a grand jury.
It’s my guess, then, that she thinks she has enough evidence to bring charges without a grand jury indictment. I just can’t imagine that she would decide entirely on her own that no crime was committed, especially in light of the tensions in that community.

Don’t be surprised if charges are brought before the end of the week….
