My husband asked me if I was okay. So grateful for the witnesses, prosecution and the jury.

Guilty, guilty, guilty just means to Johnson that a black man has to be murdered on air to get "even a nominal amount of justice."

I expected at least some riots tonight no matter what happened, and I imagine Johnson thinks his contempt for the judgements as justice is pervasive enough that he can get away with airing it as a talking head. Michael Steele otoh had an enormous "sense of relief that this happened at a time it needed to happen,"
