>> in 2013 we were watching very closely the trial of a george zimmerman and we were concerned of trayvonere identifying with the recognized this could have spent one of our own. and i know i had just walked out to watch the film ' was killed from the police department and watching that film walking out of the movie theater i was with one of my closest girlfriends i remember sitting on the street corner to get a slew of text messages and tweets people were frantic letting us know. did you hear? george is a rich man was acquitted and what are we going to do about this? so beginning to strategizing and rallies were planned but i remember in that moment that everybody knew what took place and despite all the knowledge and testimony he was put on trial for his own death his family has to be put on trial going through a collective trauma so i was struck by the fact my younger brother who was the youngest 14 at the time could have been trayvon martin this boy that i've loved so dearly could have his own life under threat and my cousins and so on. i knew something had to change i wanted to const

emissary to the freddie gray funeral in baltimore and after the death of trayvon martin at hands of george zimmermann, he'd look like trayvon. a president who knows the law, trained as an attorney, a constitutional scholar who could hardly claim to be acting and speaking out of sheer ignorance. no, our president is saying precisely what he means to say and doing so for his own reasons, partisan, ideological reasons, our president believes he's above the law, not ignorant of it, and because neither the national liberal media have resisted his arrogance, he's had absolutely no reason to believe otherwise to the propriety of his words or otherwise. >>> our quotation of the evening -- we're coming right back. >>> newly positioned russian warships in the mediterranean threatening to launch missiles against targets in syria. will the obama administration respond or does putin now have free reign in the middle east. ambassador john bolton joins me next with the answers? >>> and norwegian daredevil >>> and norwegian daredevil testing his bala ♪ i found a better deal on prescriptions. we found lower co-pays.

when george zimmerman was acquitted of murder, and when no charges were brought against the offices, in eric gardener's case in new york, and what we see in tamir rice's case in cleveland, a 12-year-old shot and killed less than a second after the police arrived. it's a disappointment in the system for many activists involved, a reminder that in the cases where they believe, you know, that everyone agrees something should be done, the system is not structured in a way where something is done. what we know is it's almost impossible. unlikely that a police officer will be charged with a crime. the social justice movement is a living, breathing, evolving thing. 28 years ago the million man march was for men. that's why it was called the million han march. there were women there, latinos, for example. so the people were there, the other groups. would they say they felt included. they were speaking, they were at the podium, but there were some that were there, that would say they perhaps were not comfortable with all the comments. even though they were there. tell me what you saw and hear

when they arrested harvard professor henry lewis gates and then in 2012, one month before george zimmerman was indicted, the president remarked that if he had had a son, he would have looked like martin. zimmerman was ultimately acquitted in that case. >> from the particular circumstance in ferguson, which i am care ful to not to speak t because it's not my job as president to comment on on going investigations in specific cases. >> as for mrs. clinton and her e-mail server catherine is reporting tonight. >> joining me now, the former f.b.i. assistant director in charge and a former senior counter terrorism advisor to the new york governor. jim, thank you for being back on the program. so you know a lot of the ajenge involved in this investigation. how angry must they be tonight? >> well, i know some of the agents, megyn, i know some of the supervisors and i know some of the senior staff. they're poed, there's no question. this is like someone driving another nail into the coffin of the criminal justice system and what the public thinks about it. that's the real hurtful part. the public se

for me, the pope meeting with kim davis would be like the pope meeting with george zimmerman. i mean, it is pretty shocking. and for me and for so many of my friends, it was a deep disappointment. but i'm choosing to not completely throw him away, because he stands so strong for so many other things that matter to me and to millions of people that i love and care about. so i'm still thinking through it to be honest with you. >> that's a very honest answer. here is what strikes me about this, it is bizarre in certain ways. he made very -- he was very public about what he was choosing to kind of intervene in, in the american political landscape, the blessing of the immigrant child and climate and the little sisters of the poor were fighting obama care, met with them very publicly. what do you make of the secret meeting? what is that about? >> i think it is very revealing. the pope has said the church needs to de-emphasize social issues, needs to not just talk about gay marriage and abortion. but this secret meeting where he encouraged this woman to continue to discriminate again

the night that george zimmerman was acquitted in the murder of our son, our brother trayvon martin. i say our son, our brother recognizing that it is sabrina fulton and tracy martin who birthed him, just as mike brown junior is the son of -- and andrew joseph junior is the son of andrew joseph senior and my cousin deanna hardy joseph. they are all ours. they are ours. know itan people, we is not biology that dictates relationship, it is spirit. sandra bland, radel jones, is yvette henderson, brother africa, megan, and so many others are not individual assaults but collective ones. black people are killed at least every 28 hours. we are under siege, all of us, pulling our pants up won't save us. our college degrees will not save us. middle-class status will not save us. they declared war on us, and the worst thing we can do is to act as if we were at peace when we are really at war. black lives matter is a rallying cry. it is not for us, for them, for them, but it is for us. black lives matter is a recognition that we have all we need within us to win. it is an acceptance of our duty

in fact, we began a year earlier when trayvon martin was killed in florida and george zimmerman was acquittedlling. so these kind of assumptions are false. he obviously is ill informed about what our movement is and how we began and that ignorance into and spills over into his allegations. first of all, wilson had no idea what michael brown was doing. he was stopped for simply walking in his neighborhood. so that's the lives that black people live often. when we think about the killing in los angeles, when we think about the killing of a 7-year-old in detroit and in cleveland, they were doing absolutely nothing wrong. and so for law enforcement to declare that they have the right to stop people simply for walking while black or sleeping while black, and gun them down, even if your guest were right and wilson knew that mike brown may have taken something that he shoplifted essentially, that is not a depth sentence. that's not a death penalty case. so this is the work that we're doing saying that black people have the right to walk and live and sleep and do that peacefully. police do not have t

we were born just over two years ago, the night george zimmerman was acquitted in the murder of our sonr brother, trayvon martin. and i say "our son, our brother" recognizing that it is sybrina fulton and tracy martin who birthed him just as mike brown jr. is the child of mike brown sr. and leslie mcfadden. and andrew joseph jr. is the son of andrew joseph sr. and my cousin, deanna hardy joseph. but they are all ours! they are ours. as african people, we know that it is not biology that dictates relationships, it's spirit. we know that the assault on kendrick mcdade, sandra bland, yvette henderson, oscar -- brother africa, megan hagaday and so many others are not individual assaults, but collective ones. black people are are killed at least every 28 hours. we are under siege, all of us. pulling our -- putting our hands up won't save us. our college degrees won't save us. middle class status won't save us. they've declared war on us, and the worst thing that we can do is to act as if we're at peace when we're really at war. black lives matter is a rallying cry. it is not more us, for the
