that is only a small part in this "DOJ Investigation."
There are so many laws broken on a daily basis by "our" government and corporations that result in the deaths of thousands,
that I cannot believe anything else but "they" have found a new distraction to keep Americans from trying to peer behind the curtain of the great and powerful Oz.
Trayvons death was deplorable and his killer should've, IMO, been convicted, yet where are the prosecutions of the people who have destroyed America, slaughtered so many for greed and wiped their ass on our constitution?

This is obviously an attempt on the scale of the MSM's, DWTS or Jerry Springer to shift our focus (and it is working, the DOJ (Holder) is being praised for it's empathy on the tragic loss of ONE of our innocents.

I hope this blows up in Holders face and while he is posturing for the cameras someone has the balls to ask him to explain why he cannot find time in his busy schedule to prosecute some mass murdering corporations.
