Detroit City Council member JoAnn Watson on Tuesday introduced a resolution supporting the U.S. Justice Department's investigation into the Florida slaying of Trayvon Martin. Federal investigators are looking into whether or not George Zimmerman violated the teen's civil rights when he followed him in his gated neighborhood out of suspicion, leading to an altercation and the fatal shooting.

Wow! Could that couple be any (I was going to say ‘whiter’) stupider?

They seem to be so open-minded that their brains long ago leaked out onto their Birkenstocks.

Next thing you know, the left will outlaw Neighborhood Watch programs altogether.

The Detroit City Council fiddles while Detroit burns.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. I'm sure they'd make exceptions for organizations that they perceive as like-minded, such as the "Guardian Angels".

There is no reason to bail out Detroit; there is no intelligent life left in the immediate area.

This overfed twit, like that genius Jeantel, is upright, babbling proof that modern man did indeed come out of africa...and left the stupid behind.

“Federal investigators are looking into whether or not George Zimmerman violated the teen’s civil rights when he followed him in his gated neighborhood out of suspicion, leading to an altercation and the fatal shooting.”

She’s cracking me up. She’s done such a great job that Detroit is now filing bankruptcy. And what the heck is all of this “it takes a village” garbage from the left? Either Trayvon was a child or he wasn’t.

Two fun facts about the city council:

(1) Now that the city is bankrupt, they are completely and utterly powerless. They do even more nothing than they were previously doing.

(2) City councilmen do not represent specific districts of the city, they are elected at large. They have no specific constituency to serve.

Good grief! These fat cretins are obsessing over Zimmerman when the city is going down the toilet. That obvious cluelessness is what got Detroit into this hole over the past 60 years of Democrat rule.

I guess since Monica Conyers is in the slammer, JoAnn Watson has assumed her role as stupidest City Council Member.

I think JoAnn Watson wants us to treat Detroit with the same respect we give to a city that’s NOT corrupt, broken and run by idiots...

Detroit’s ‘profiled’ as a loser because of all the cities in the United States, they’re the biggest losers. Crooks have stripped the houses bare in Detroit - no copper, no appliances, nothing of value left. Some houses sell for a dollar in Detroit - and no one wants ‘em. Even their ‘black panthers’ want to burn the place down...

But yeah, we’ll all treat Detroit like it’s Martha’s Vineyard... I’m sure the Obama’s will be vacationing in Detroit soon. Count on it.
