most of us are in that marketplace by birth. justice kennedy said this line of reasoning goes a step beyond what the law has allowed before. >> they are making decisions that are effecting the price that everybody pays for this service. >> so you define it as food therefore everybody is in the market therefore you can make people buy broccoli >> it changes the relationship of the federal government to the individual in a very fundamental way. >> that is sort of the thing that has everyone thinking oh, this may not go the government's way if you have justice kennedy saying you know, he has reservations about changing that relationship between government and people. another important argument, another final day, coming up with two issues, severability if you get rid of the mandate can you keep those provisions other people do like such as whether insurance companies have to extend health insurance

because of pre-existing conditions those could go out as well if the mandate go it is severability argument begins 10:00 a.m. this morning, and they will take up the issue of medicare saying people who can't afford health insurance will be forced to go on their medicare roles that will be an undue financial burden for them. >> melanie alnwick outside the supreme court thanks. prince georges county police are investigating a robbery and abduction in hyattsville this happened late last night 58th avenue, according to police the victim said the two armed suspects approached him as he was walking into his home, and demanded money. they forced him into his own car and drove him to an atm once they arrived back in the neighbourhood the suspects noticed the police and that is when they crashed into a parked car, which is with a you see here. the victim was able to escape, the suspect took off on foot firing shots at police, one suspect is in custody this morning the other still on the run. new developments in the trayvon martin case the miami

color has nothing to do with what is happening, and it is disgusting that myself as a black man, who sits here who sits back and sees that the african american community is allowing ourselves to drop our standard of integrity, for the moment, because we feel or we think that it was about race. because had i shot trayvon, would this be on the news? would it be such oh, let's march let's start this rally, no. it wouldn't be. it is the fact that it was made out to be about race and now that it has gone to the point where you have politicians that are labeling george as a murder and you have the black panther organization wants to put a $10,000 bounty on his head what has america come to,. >> you just got off the phone

with george, there are so many conflicting stories about what happened that night, what is he telling you happened? >> i have advised george and just like all of us have advised george we don't want to know about it, okay the reason we don't want to know about it because we need to be smart, tread lightly in this situation, all i can say is george has said it again he was in fear for his life. period. >> you believe him. >> 100%. >> you haven't spoken out before this, why now? why are you coming out now? >> um, mainly because i have seen it spiral more and more out of control and i took the time to sit down with people that i love and respect, who agree with me, in the sense of this is spinning out of control and i have said to them and they know i know george and they know my integrity behind this they have said anthony, we

believe that you need to say something because you know him, and that someone has to stand down the people that are labeling someone in the media as a murder without knowing all the facts. it is not right. it is not right at any cost to do that and unfair. >> that was fox 5s. laura evans talking with one of george zimmerman's childhood friends, a grand jury will convene on april 10th to determine if there will be any charges against zimmerman. less than a week before our primaries, and some republican candidates are in town ron paul is holding a town hall meeting tonight at ritchie coliseum, university of maryland college park college students make up a big portion of his supporters town hall starts at 7:00 p.m. as the four way race for the republican presidential nomination moves forward mitt romneys two main challengers

otherwise looking at -- talking on their cell phones talking to passengers, normal distraction in the past are only compounded by now the fact that we have all the technology we are using. >> mm-hmm now, give me an idea, i mean you have really seen over the years, it used to be just the radio or maybe you are eating in your car or whatever, how much have you seen it increase. >> much so, as i said it is now the leading cause used to be speeding now distracted driving that is the top cause what happens is when you are talking on your cell phone even if you are using the bluetooth you are very much distracted your field of blue has changed you add into it you may have a child in the backseat or looking to drink a beverage at the same time even worse is when they are trying to drink a beverage and holding a cell phone at the same time people are multitasks and that is causing more and more crashes every day. >> i know it is difficult to talk about you have a personal story about this as well how it effected your own life too. >> right we found out when teens have extra pass

travelling, an extra 100 feet before they even react, and then it takes another 85 feet, or a little more than a football field. >> this is districted. >> now he is not even paying attention he looks up and he is not only did he pass where he was he wasn't even on the brakes by the time he crossed where the pedestrian was a ordinarily he was able to see the problem and put on the brakes in time to stop before, but that one second one and a half seconds he was already hitting the pedestrian or hitting the vehicle in front of him before he even put his foot on the brakes. >> that was noticing i want to clarify where do we say he is noticed the problem. >> in the first situation at that first cone. and was able to brake starting at the second cone. >> that much reaction. >> that much difference just to react to the problem and then the second demonstration, it took a second and a half so he

was already past that cone before he was able the look up he wasn't able to get on the brakes until he got to this cone and come to a stop there. >> already, striking the object in front of him before he even had a chance to look up. that second that you look down at your cell phone that you look at your child in the backseat, is a critical second it could save a life. >> all right corporal lewis demonstrating it for us really driving it home tony and allison again looking just to see who is calling on the phone, how much time can go by and how much damage can be done so obviously a huge situation, folks need to address and remind themselves when they are in the car driving down the road. >> a real eye opener >> i said earlier i see it happen all the time i have to admit if the phone rings i have looked down who is that and that in and of itself is dangerous. >> thank you again sarah. a quick update on the metro situation, top of the hour concerning esculators at the
