    Hopefully his source is not The Martin's attorney.

    If you knew it was the wrong photo, then why leap to those assumptions based on that photo at all?

    Thought the kid was staying with his grandparents or other relatives in that community. Where the hell were they when the father was calling Missing persons?

    Re: Martin going for Zimmerman's pistol

    Since the pistol should have been concealed, how did Martin know it was there to try to take it?

    I don't even know what language you're speaking right now.

    Yes. And anyone who knows me will tell you the same. I'm not smart or creative enough to play a role.

    Considering skulking means to sneak around or to lurk, I'd say it's pretty obvious.

    I think this is an incredibly sad story and I don't think we've heard anything resembling the truth from either side, but it would have been nice if both sides were able to tell their full version of what happened.

    I just think a bad story is about to get much worse as soon as it becomes official that Zimmerman isn't going to be charged.

    So if there's a Facebook picture of you somewhere with your shirt pulled over your head, or making a gang sign, or holding a cocktail, that's the way we can expect to find you at all times in real life?

    I did hear Al Sharpton on Morning Joe saying that it took 3 days to id Martin so who knows. He must not have read the Blow column.

    There has to be a part of Al thinking "here we go again" as the narrative changes.

    Yes. At least the cocktail part. No one wants to see me with my shirt pulled over my head.

    But here's the point: I'm not always drunk. But I'm always someone who enjoys a drink. Do you see the difference there? I don't have to be doing the activity at the exact moment for it to be part of who I am.

    But you assume because a teenager flips the bird in a photo he's going to be a skulker?
