Spike Lee Apologizes for Retweeting Wrong Address
NBC ^ | 3/29/2012

Posted on 03/29/2012 3:21:26 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Spike Lee has apologized to a Florida couple who say they were forced to leave their home when a Twitter posting that the director helped spread listed their address as that of a man who shot an unarmed teenager.

Elaine and David McClain are in their 70s and say they have a son named William George Zimmerman who lived in their Sanford-area home in the mid-1990s. They say he is no relation to 28-year-old George Zimmerman who killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on Feb. 26.

it wouldn’t necessarily be the couple was so, but maybe political affinity drew them to this law firm. or maybe it made the most credible promises to bring their target status in this race baiting affair to a screeching halt which is what they wanted the most. if they are buddies with the Bummer, maybe they got him to lean on spike.

spike at the least should come out and make a ringing denouncement of any and all vigilante activity, especially of homies.

The law firm Morgan & Morgan does a lot of advertising here in the Orlando area. They don't advertise that they are RATS. That comes out watching the LSM showing the fundraisers for ZERO.
If I ever needed a ambulance chasing attorney I would probly hold my nose & use them. Kinda like what I will do if Mittens gets the nomination. Hold my nose & Vote for him.

Hey spike... have you seen the latest South Park episode where home shopping networks are targeted? Watch it... and do what Kyle tells the barker of one TV shopping channel to do. “Dude, you are evil... kill yourself”.

What’s STILL messed up is that even if he had the CORRECT ADDRESS, why would Zimmerman’s family deserve to be hurt?

Don’t forget that Rush pounded the issue on his March 28 show. May have had an impact.

Attorney John Morgan is the poster boy for the noun "scallywag."

He also is the employer of former Florida Governor Charlie Crist.

Especially since he now says “leave them in peace”, which shows his original intent was meant to cause harm.

Spike Lee has a LOT more to apologize for, but don’t hold your breath.

His birth certificate may indicate he was born in the United States, and there may even be substantial proof of that fact. But like many others, Spike Lee is an AINO (American in name only), as he has allowed his mind to be trapped in a twisted ideology wherein the principles upon which America was founded, and are institutionalized in the great body of US law, have been cast aside and replaced with a concept called “street law”, an invitation to mob rule and anarchy.

Grievances which were long ago settled, and their resolutions which are available, are resurrected over and over, as though nothing had ever been done. Last I heard, slavery has been abolished in the United States, and broad opportunities for individual advancement have been plentiful for decades. All this may end, however, if the present course of denial and subjugation of all dissent with the preachers of a strange brand of theology and “street people” continues without ever attempting any kind of dialogue.

Perhaps dialogue is impossible.

You are 100% correct John Morgan is also good friends with John Edwards too.
John got caught driving drunk a while back. The city of Casselberry here in central FL, released the tape of John getting ready for the drunk tank. John told the arresting officer he was scum and that he, (John) made 10 thousand times more money than he did. . . . . .

Is that the firm Suntan Charlie Crist joined after his ass was kicked by Marco Rubio?

That be the one. . . . . Gay Charlie found a home. I know he married a female but that was just for show I am told. . . .
