House Democrats will hold a hearing next week to weigh in on the controversy swirling around the recent verdict in the George Zimmerman trial.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced “A Conversation on Race and Justice” on July 30 on Capitol Hill.
According to a Pelosi aide, the hearing will not focus solely on the trial, which acquitted Zimmerman of murder charges in the shooting death of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, but will be a “broader conversation.”
Pelosi will preside over the hearing, which will include Democrats from the party’s Steering and Policy Committee.
The scheduled panelists are Southern Poverty Law Center founder Morris Dees, Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and civil rights lawyer Maya Wiley, president of the Center for Social Inclusion.

And the House leadership should ignore it and show it all the respect it deserves.

a “broader conversation.”
Okay. What can be down to stop the rising tide of barbarianism which is spreading out of the decaying urban cores and into the rest of our society?

Hey Nancy, Meet Doctor Ossian Sweet who in 1926 stood his ground against a white mob trying to force him out of "their" white Detroit neighborhood.
One man died and Sweet and 11 others were charged with murder.
All were acquitted and less than 3 weeks later the first gun control bill showed up in the Michigan legislature. The resulting law created local gun boards that decided who could own a gun. Blacks were denied almost 100% of the time.
Is that your kind of racial justice?

She is a good soldier, admittedly. The orders are to distract - anything but Libya, the IRS, the NSA, Fox, The AP, the economy, black on black crime, food stamps, the deficit, Detroit and it’s proud 50+year record of success through Democratic leadership, the train wreck that is Obamacare, Egypt and the Muslim Brotherhood, the Wiener and The Spritzer...

Add Nancy Pelosi to the mix and you've got a menagerie suitable for a carny sideshow.

When people are victimized by crime, is that justice? Some people may think so.
