intersections. most protests were peaceful although cities like oakland reported minor violence and some arrests. the call for community leaders for constructive dialogue and calm moving forward. president obama echoing that sentiment. he called trayvon martin's death a tragedy for america and he asked the nation to respect the call for trayvon's parents. and asked us to ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to prevent future tragedies like this one. this is the best way we can honor trayvon. eric holder is scheduled to speak at the naacp convention not far from where the zimmerman trial was held. naacp leaders want a petition saturday night asking that

the judge asking about more information about manslaughter, the judge september it--the judge sent it back but the jury didn't have any help with the problems they were having problems with. >> they're not under obligation to do. >> caller: the lawyers could have hammered it out and then that was just suspicious on my end. >> stephanie: it did look like a little move of weakness to ask for the manslaughter after they already obviously went forward with the second-degree. to me didn't it seem like well, we may not be able to make second-degree, how about this? it seemed like a move made out of weakness, to me. again, i've never gotten how this is a weak case. i think that's what the prosecutor, the closing arguments, this is a very

difficult case. you don't say that. this shouldn't be a difficult case. >> the stand your ground law made it a difficult case. >> stephanie: i just did not think it was a strong closing argument. derek in birmingham alabama. >> caller: hi, the point is this, what is going on we had an all white jury, all white women and basically you get how do you think george zimmerman felt if he had five blacks on his jury and maybe one hispanic. his lawyers would have been objecting to this. basically it would have made no difference what the evidence was, baby. they didn't care. if you have one black mother up there, and then i heard that

really call black people porch monkeys. >> stephanie: a lot of people speculated this, and it was written suppose trayvon was a 230-pound black man and zimmerman had been the 17-year-old kid who was walking home. this is america shows that a black boy can be shot by white men, because whit men are terrified by black boys, and it's called playing the race card. if you point that out, it's called playing the race card. trayvon martin was stalked because he was black. trayvon martin is dead because he was black.

and george zimmerman was acquitted because trayvon martin was black. if you deny these things, then you're a liar or an idiot or both. florida's laws extend to all races vigilante killing. this is in salon. >> yes, but trayvon had a big block of concrete that he hit him over the head with. >> stephanie: yes, michelle in louisiana. you're on "the stephanie miller show"." >> caller: hi, i disagree with the gentleman that called that. this trial was a fluke. he told his defense attorney, and he snapped. when they say it's all the

women, all the juries were women, i said heard all of them were white women what good is it going to do me to have a trial, your black trial is dead. if anyone should go after them, attorneys. the prosecutor and the defense picked the jury. why couldn't have been three whites, three blacks, hispanics, asian. not to cut you off but like i say, this man look at george zimmerman's face when he was not guilty. his life is on the line, but

it's not guilty. george zimmerman knew he wasn't going to go to jail. >> stephanie: sorry, we got a hard break. i understand. i had a feeling people might be upset and emotional. but i was speaking about i wonder if this might be another--where they could very well win the civil suit. lose the criminal and win the civil suit. we'll see. 18 minutes after the hour. we come right back to "the stephanie miller show." >> there is a tea party in her pants, and you're invited. 1-800-steph-12 the number.

i agree with that, which is why i was disappointed. jay in atlanta, you're on "the stephanie miller show." hi jay. >> caller: good morning, good morning. glad you're doing this because you know almost all americans are angry about this, black white, hispanic, this is ridiculous. this remind me that--you ever see the andy griffith show? do you remember andy used to barney fife's bullet out of the gun because he knew barney fife would go berserk. that's what this guy was doing. i'm going to be a hero. this black kid i'm going to kill him. this is absolutely ridiculous. when i hear some people calling in or some of these other shows or making statements like phoney fox news to suggest that this kid was responsible for his death.

you know, what bugs me-- >> stephanie: did you hear geraldo talk about the way he was dressed? >> caller: what did he say. >> stephanie: he was basically saying if you dress like that, i can't remember. >> you're asking for it. >> stephanie: hang on one second. eric boehlert said it. lecturing that he dresses like a thug he gets treated like one. >> caller: this is ridiculous. the kid had nothing but a bottle of tea and skittles in his hand. do you know most teenagers dress in sloppy clothes. it doesn't make him a thug. african-americans live under this what are you doing here unwritten law because we feel uncomfortable, you don't fit what you're supposed to look like here.

>> if he's found in a porn store he should be treated as such. >> stephanie: yes, please treat geraldo as a porn star. what does that really mean. he was acting like a vigilante. that's the fear. this verdict allows anyone with a gun to go and acting like vigilante. why did they test the dead boy's body for drugs and yet failed to test the live man's body for drugs. why did they feel after arriving on the scene the police warned black people not to riot. but not telling zimmerman supporters the same warning. and the fear is there is going

to be a lot more of this. particularly by those who feel there are too many brown people here in the first place. jay had a great tweet. the danger to the verdict is not more riots but more george zimmermans. nicely said. and another tweet, it might be good idea for electronic stores and shoes stores to close up shop. another great tweet. just a reminder that justice john roberts thinks that racism in america is over. joan welcome. >> caller: i can't understand--well, i can understand it, but here is an african-american teenager who was murdered, and then put on trial and found guilty for his own murder. >> stephanie: yes. >> caller: now african-american males cannot stand still for any

length of time. they can't walk fast. zimmerman accused trayvon of walking too slowly. they can't run. they can't make sudden moves. what is it that african-american adults are supposed to tell their young african-american males? they say why didn't trayvon go on home? if white people saw african-americans as human beings they would have seen trayvon martin responding and acting like any teenage boy would. he was going to stand his ground, he had a right to stand his ground. >> stephanie: the reason for those who aren't really attorneys this story could not seem clearer. >> why are you following me. >> stephanie: he stalked a black kid. picked a fight with him, started losing the fight and decided to shoot him. >> caller: that's exactly what happened. now what will come out of this, probably, a so-called discussion

or conversation about race, but my problem these conversations do very little to improve the relationships between white and african-american. the reason why is they only talk about one part of the equation and that is african-americans response to what whites do to african-americans. they never talk about why whites act the way they act towards african-americans. why whites eight african-americans. it has nothing to do with what we wear, how we act. it's the fact that whites stop terrorizing african-americans. >> stephanie: okay, right back on "the stephanie miller show."

during the three weeks of the trial virtually no activity outside of the courtroom. there was nothing to indicate that any of this, and then you know the local police put out a psa you know, last week suggesting well, it's raise your voice, not your hand. and breitbart and fox took that to say they're preparing for riot. nowhere in that did it suggest that anyone was preparing or riots, and of course they haven't materialized. it's another layer of race baiting that is surrounding the story in the last 17 months. >> stephanie: you pointed us to geraldo collects a paycheck by stomping on trayvon martin's grave by saying if he dresses like a thug he gets treated like aing. >> and ted nugent, who we

actually have to deal with as a media commentator. ted nugent says trayvon martin, a dope smogged racist wannabe. stomping on graves is the job for right wings media. >> stephanie: you know, you make the best point. you say a conservative press remains incapable of dealing with issue that the nation grapples with, especially when it deals with race and there is an african-american sitting in the white house. has the president responded to a single question about the controversy? and they cast him as a central villain. >> if you did think that obama was going to be a central player in this murder case, then you haven't paid any attention to obama derangement syndrome. obama injected himself into the story when 16 months ago he was

asked the direct question at a press conference, and he gave a simple, heartfelt answer. then last week we had this complete phoney controversy about the department of justice sending a community relations unit down to sanford, florida, last year during the tension and turmoil, and this was revealed as some sort of conspiracy that obama sent his henchman in florida to organize, quote anti-zimmerman rallies. what they did was report in realtime and it was completely uncontroversial. they were peace makers. this is an unit of the department of justice that has been in existence since the civil rights act of 1964. they're dispatched to communities that are experiencing tension, and they work with civic leaders religious leaders, the police, to make sure that the protests that happen, happen peacefully. and guess what, it was a

success. because all of those protests in sanford, florida, were peaceful. so obama's justice department helped to over oversee peaceful rallies. >> stephanie: or instigated race riots as rush limbaugh puts it. >> of course there were no race riots in florida and there is was no violence in florida. this is all part of a right wing fantasy about how they view race in america and frankly how they view protesters. >> stephanie: you say in terms of unfiltered racism no one has reached rush limbaugh, latching on the phoney spin, limbaugh accused the president of promoting racial strength so the rest of us could get a taste of slavery. rush limbaugh's race to the bottom. >> yes, this is a theme he has

used for years that obama has a chip on his shoulder. that obama wanted to become president to pay back white america. >> stephanie: right. >> wanted to become president. remember in the earlier years he wanted white people to be unemployed, he wanted white people to be poor. he talks about this unhinged fantasy, which is amazing then you compare him to the obama--the person. you know, completely mild mannered president who is--who frankly seems to be very reluctant to talk about race at all because the two or three times he has done that, people like limbaugh--so they create this fantasy about obama, that he's obsessed with race, and he's this radical and you look at him and it's the harvard law grad constitutional lawyer, and they don't match up. this obsession that limbaugh has

with slavery and obama has particularly intrigued me. >> stephanie: by the way, it's hard to find someone more continue limbaugh. there was a tweet thinking that he's clever about hangers and abortion, and he wonders why he's #creepy man. >> there is this problem of republican men and abortion. there was a pretty good piece in buzzbuzzword with republican women asking republican men to stop it. but this has become--it's very--you know, it's fascinating and frightening to watch in north carolina and texas there is absolutely an anti-abortion crusade going on right now. >> stephanie: by the way eric, in case people missed it. he tweeted now that abortion restriction versus passed you

liberals better stock up on coat hangers. >> oh, he was being clever and nobody understood it. the only reason why he deleted it a coat hanger company hated it, and he didn't want to offend them. so in 2012 do we need to repeal the women or repeal the latinos. how do they respond? the anti-women crusade and all indications they're killing the immigration reform. >> stephanie: i love your tweets. we must tell women and kill women and latinos. >> the people who wrote that autopsy, and these are people who tried to win elections and try to position the republican party to appeal to the greatest number of independents, and that is a vanishing number of people

in washington, d.c. because they're incapable of steering the party towards any sort of sanity. >> stephanie: you think people who write those reports are just banging their heads. >> why do we try. >> stephanie: i love your tweet g.o.p.'s radical anti-abortion crusade, they're hoping that it will reach hillary clinton in in 2016. does g.o.p. have a death wish? >> it's injury yemen gerrymandering. they have all these house seats forget it. we'll give up on the national campaigns. we won't win the white house so let's obsess over the things that drive us crazy. abortion, hot-button issues that score poorly nationally but make them feel good about themselves. and the anti-abortion crusade

the anti-women's choice crusade seems to me that hillary clinton would be able to make--would be able to parlay that into a very effective campaign. >> stephanie: by the way look who is right back in the middle of it, presidential candidate rick santorum. who is running for what now? he's back in the middle of the abortion debate, right? >> yes, that comes out on the heels of rick perry who says he might run in 2016. the man who could not win a single delegate is now in 2012 2012 is now back in line for 2016. and rick santorum, who didn't do too much better, just gives a snapshot in terms of the white house perspective. not only for the people but the agenda. >> stephanie: hashtag deep bench. we're scared. eric great stuff as usual. we'll talk to you next week.

it's by procuring firearms or whatever they may be doing, that they have some kind of help. i think that's what george was trying to do, reach out to black children. >> right. >> stephanie: oh, i see. obviously based on something that i pulled out of my ass but the gun-running dope fiend and george is just trying to mentor on him. >> he basically crapped on the corpse of a dead boy. >> stephanie: and you're basing that on? because i would like to know, really? ooh. let's go to mel in illinois. >> caller: hi, instead of, i'm the one who brought the situation near to the chicago show. >> stephanie: oh, my god, thank you. i have it. >> caller: well, it was a pleasure to meet you. i was at the really show. really great. my point is the real tragedy of the trayvon martin kill

we look around, what else could trayvon had in his hand? the answer it had to be that tactical flashlight. it happens to be a self defense weapon. if it had a nylon cord on it, a nylon strap, that would explain the friction burns the rope burns on trayvon's left hand that hasn't been explained. the private investigator explained yes that tactical flashlight would institute a blunt force trauma instrument. those lacerations are clearly blunt force instrument, and-- >> stephanie: what? no one said that they were blunt force drama. they're superficial wounds. people are scaring me this morning. >> clearly they're blunt force

with me. >> caller: and i hope black people don't take my black card from me, but i don't think that george zimmerman was a racist. i think by conditioning through his 29 years. you go to the movies. the villain is the black guy. he saw trayvon martin in this hoodie at night and he automatically profileed him as being up to no good even though the kid was minding his own business. he didn't pull out his gun to shoot trayvon martin because he was black. i they he pulled it out and shot him because he got his ass kicked. >> stephanie: but when he kept referring him as a suspect. what was he suspected of? he was walking with skittles. what was he doing that was suspicious. >> caller: so if a white guy is walking in a park with a hoodie on, you would think that he's part of the row team or something.

a black guy, he's up to no good. the black guys are always suspicious. >> stephanie: hoodies only a bad fashion choice if you're black then? >> caller: say that one more time. >> stephanie: hoodies are only a bad fashion choice if you're black, then? >> caller: exactly. there are certainly things that black guys can't do that only white guys can done. >> stephanie: i guess so. >> it shouldn't be that way. >> stephanie: julie in california. >> caller: hi, stephanie. >> stephanie: hi. >> caller: i wanted to comment on the last guy who called. i don't think zimmerman was a racist. i think everything happened the way it's been happening for the last 200 years. we have a race problem and i've been picked on. i've been in jail, as most are incredibly racist. thank god i had a jewish lawyer,

that. >> stephanie: yes, yes. >> caller: maybe that's why they did it the way they did it, because they don't see it. they can't relate. >> stephanie: let'slet's go to kevin in orange county. >> caller: hi, stephanie. i heard a couple of callers call in about george zimmerman's right to self defense. trayvon martin has the exact same equal right of self defense under under the law. it's not just a single action. it's a formula of actions. the first duty under self defense is retreat. i don't see any evidence where george zimmerman retreated. he gave up his right to self defense as soon as he got out of the car and confronted trayvon martin. trayvon martin by all the evidence that i heard his first action was to retreat. when you have a threat of imminent bodily harm, which anybody would feel that way in trayvon martin's circumstances they're allowed to react to that with force. even if you say that trayvon

martin threw the first punch, he had every right to under the same self-defense that everybody is saying that george zimmerman had. >> stephanie: right, yeah, yeah, i'm sure if he knew he was going to be stalked by a vigilante cop wannabe, he would have had more skittles. >> caller: i wanted to say a few more things. if you strip everything from it, and look at it from a mental standpoint, i feel that the court should have as a murderer that's what he is. he was told to stay in the car. he had a mental process that told him he needed to take this gun and harm somebody. regardless of race regardless of who was he got out of his car, and i think he should be--should have been pegged for

a murderer. >> stephanie: for second-degree you have to prove malice. to me why does the 911 call not qualify? when you call somebody these [bleep] is going to get with this these f-ing punks. did he get fonder after that during the fight? how is that not with malice? 17 minutes after the hour. we're on "the stephanie miller show." >> wow, i don't believe it. this is too good to be real. of course this is real. >> it's "the stephanie miller show." the characters that are actually living these stories.

presently violent. >> caller: no, but where they're told they're victims instead of dealing with the real problem which is black america resorts to violence instead of backing away. it results in tens of thousands of crime. what happened in florida was not racist. >> stephanie: no white people are violent. >> caller: yeah, at times but not to the extent that blacks are. >> stephanie: not to the extent. >> caller: that's a general general--it's progressive dogma. it's okay to lash out. >> stephanie: it's not really blacks' faults. it's progressives. >> caller: the entitlements that pay fathers to leave their family they rewards they receive instead of keeping teams together. >> where do you get this evidence.

>> caller: it's called reality. go to any inner city school, the evidence is in the scores. these schools are hellholes. >> stephanie: what is your evidence. >> caller: the black america has been exposed to progressive dogma and progressive violence. >> stephanie: what is your point. is this why zimmerman is not guilty. >> caller: zimmerman is not guilty because the court of law charged him not guilty. but the problem was that this young kid that didn't deserve to die has been taught all along he has experienced what you're doing in the black community if you're confronted, you're not manly if you don't confront the man, you go and hit him. that's not the way you deal with problems. i heard some idiot. >> stephanie: really if a guy was following you and stalking you and you couldn't get away. >> caller: he's not stalking me with a gun. george zimmerman did not pull the gun out of his back pocket. >> stephanie: how do you know. >> caller: that's what the evidence shows.

blood on the concrete from george zimmerman's head being bashed and she said no. why didn't the prosecution use that? he said that his head was bashed 25 times and where was the flesh? >> stephanie: i just brought it up trayvon had no blood or dna on his hands of any kind. how could he give this epic beating on zimmerman right. >> caller: right, but the evidence was not handled properly either. i couldn't understand that why tracy martin didn't know anything. why didn't the police go door to door? why were parents not contacted initially? so everybody has fault in this. that is really the disgusting part. >> stephanie: i agree with you. by the way one the zimmerman's friends tweeted george always kept everyone safe. really? really? everyone? did he keep everyone safe? hi scott in north carolina.

>> caller: hi, i just want to say i heard a lot of people speak about this issue and the truth of the matter is the jury deliberated on the wrong issue. the main issue was what caused the root problem? what caused it? the truth of the matter, yeah george zimmerman probably did have to defend himself so did trayvon. trayvon was a scare kid with a strange man following him. what would you do? i would fight for my life too. the bottom line is that the jury went in, and they only deliberated on what happened in the scuffle. well, what caused the root problem? what could trayvon have done to prevent this whole issue? not go outdoors? that's his civil right. but what they failed to realize is that george zimmerman had several options that he could have done to stop this. he could not not gotten out of

his car. he could have said, i'm the neighborhood watch guy. can i help you? trayvon would have said, i'm going to my dad's house up the street here. where i'm from there is a lot of racism. it's very heavy. we have an active klan recruiting people, putting notes out on your car at the grocery store. >> stephanie: nice. >> caller: where i'm from, i'm very aware of how somebody can be profiled. >> stephanie: yes, absolutely. i know, ed in houston you're on "the stephanie miller show," hi ed. >> caller: hey stephanie. first let me say that a lot of your callers today have presented several points i wanted to make, primarily the one that was made about melissa alexander. this is a lady that shot into her roof.

okay she didn't shoot at anyone. she shot at her roof. >> stephanie: because she was threatened by her ex who had beaten her up for years. >> caller: exactly. so now she has outstanding warrant against him. but my question, and i present this to jim, why didn't the prosecution present any of this evidence? they presented such a lame lame--what's the word?--they presented such a lame class. i thought they should have been able to present this. this kid is walking home. you tell me that this guy brings in a piece of concrete? he's walking down the street with concrete in his hand? >> stephanie: exactly. >> also they didn't test for the tissue samples or blood on the

concrete. take our word for it. >> stephanie: yep, john in iowa. welcome. >> caller: good afternoon--good morning. >> stephanie: good morning. >> caller: i'm sorry that the young man is dead. it's a tragedy no matter how you look at it. i'm sorry that i was born white. i didn't have anything to do with that. but my concern more is than anything why doesn't anybody care about anybody getting killed in chicago and washington, d.c.? >> stephanie: who says nobody cares? >> caller: that's exactly right. >> stephanie: who says nobody cares? >> caller: what are they doing about it? we had a situation in davenport iowa, where we had some gang influx into the city. and our police department department pulled out all the squad cars and started patrolling heavily, and they moved right back out of town. there has got to be a way to stop it.

maybe the president needs to bring in the military. >> stephanie: what cities are you talking about? >> chicago. >> caller: 26 people killed the weekend before last. this is terrible. >> stephanie: okay. >> the situation in chicago is a little more complicated than davenport, iowa. >> caller: absolutely. >> it takes a lot more money and a lot more manpower, and we may not have it. >> stephanie: it's so easy to get a gun so close to chicago. >> gary, indiana right across the border. >> stephanie: that's right. chanel hey chanel. >> caller: i'mi listen in a well-established predominantly white neighborhood. my husband and i are young black

americans and we're peaceful. but there are young black men who live in the inner city. we're faced with the two americas. i'm fearful for my nephews and my cousins to even visit me here because i assume that something may happen to them as a result of all of this. mothers, the term we use are wwbb or awbb, and we each our young men that you can be stopped for these two reasons and those are walking while being black or driving while being black. so this is not a new thing for the average black american who wants to raise healthy productive young men. we teach them to be afraid of the police just pretty much lay down on the ground and put your

hands up. this is from a black mother as well. so when i see six white women who have no idea of what it's like to try to save a black man from the american prison, and create someone who is a good example in society, it's very hard. >> stephanie: you know we've had other black women call in this morning and share the same experience. it makes you wonder why there wasn't more diversity on that jury. >> why were there only six. aren't there 12? >> stephanie: i don't know. jennifer in georgia. >> caller: hi, steph. i want to translate something from my language to you. it's in the courtroom of your conscious. you may have walked out of the

guardcourtroom, but he'll never walk out of the courtroom of his conscious, he'll have to deal with it. >> stephanie: i'm not sure that i caught your point. >> caller: george zimmerman, he got out of the courtroom yes but his conscious went out with him. that will be there every day. >> stephanie: it doesn't sound like it from his interview with shawnsean hannity. would you do anything different? no i wouldn't do anything different if i had to do it all over again. >> zimmerman's brother has been an a-hole. >> stephanie: should we play that again? robert zimmerman on piers morgan cnn. >> i want to know, i'm not sure if it's true but trayvon martin was looking to procure firearms, or was growing marijuana plants, or making lean--whatever he was doing, i want to know that every

minor high schooler that would be reaching out in some way for help, and they may feel it's by procuring firearms or whatever they may be doing that they have some kind of help. i think that's what george was doing when he mentored two black children. >> he's like breitbart really nauseating. >> stephanie: really nauseating combination. the problem was not that zimmerman had a gun and trayvon was shot in the heard, but that trayvon might be trying to procure a gun? >> i had a sense that he was going to get a gun growing drugs, growing gun drugs. >> this is what he said on piers morgan, this is the last time i want to hear about bags of skittles well, this is the last
